Blake Lively got a Deadpool manicure, and it is the most extra display of love — in the best way
Blake Lively deserves all the wife of the year awards, and here’s why. Lively stepped out at the Deadpool 2 premiere in New York alongside husband Ryan Reynolds, and to commemorate the red carpet occasion, she rocked a black dress with crimson sash, or, you know, the official Deadpool color scheme. More importantly, her husband’s tiny face was painted onto her nails. We repeat: Lively got a Deadpool manicure and this 👏🏽 is 👏🏽how 👏🏽you 👏🏽support👏🏽 your👏🏽 partner 👏🏽in 👏🏽their👏🏽 artistic 👏🏽 endeavors.
Lively is a huge fan of elaborate nail art: she frequently works with nail stylist Elle Gerstein, and make sure you see her Vatican-inspired bejeweled talons from the 2018 Met Gala earlier this month. It makes sense that Lively would go all out for Reynolds’s big movie premiere; after all, he says she inspired the message behind the film.
"My family is everything to me, and that’s what brought about Deadpool 2,” Reynolds told Vanity Fair at the premiere. “Actually, for [screenwriters] Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, and myself — we’ve been friends for 10 years, and in that time we all acquired families and sort of grown up a little bit. So we wanted to write that into the story. The idea of love and family is what’s in Deadpool 2, even though I am still as immature as fuck!”
To further prove Lively’s profound influence over Deadpool 2, Reynolds added that she “immeasurably made my life better. She’s my best friend. I absolutely love and respect her. She’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me.”
And now, for those nails…
Lively’s out here doing marketing for Deadpool 2 with her nails — so, yes, to quote Reynolds, she really is ‘”the best thing” that’s ever happened to him. Deadpool 2 hits theaters on May 18th, 2018.
