Blake Lively news: the former upper-east-sider on Gossip Girl, was stung by a swarm of bees on her birthday according to a post on her website Preserve, she recalled how her day turned into the worst birthday she ever had.
"I felt an electric shock of energy - was it excitement that I was about to turn another year older? Was it nerves? Why did it feel like agony? I like getting older... I think. But this felt terrible. Does your butt quite suddenly (and painfully) deflate when you turn 27? Because mine hurt like hell. Then my neck, back, legs and forehead. And oh my hands! They were shrivelling. It felt like I was being shot by dozens of tiny invisible darts. I felt like the Wicked Witch, melting, melting, burning, melting. As it happens, I wasn't being greeted by the onset of spontaneous ageing, but rather a full-fledged bee day. Attacked. All over. Everywhere."
This happened when she was having a photo shoot for her lifestyle website.
She continues, "Just moments before we were in the midst of a gorgeous fall fashion shoot. Now, I was a Monty Python sketch; running at top speed in no particular direction, whipping my arms and hands around like I'd just discovered they were growing out of my shoulders without my previous knowledge. There was a terrible sound piercing the air too... I was later informed this sound had emanated from my very own mouth. I'd prefer to never hear it again. Along with everybody else on the East Coast."
After leaving her swollen by the attacked of bees, she baked a vanilla cake to celebrate her 27th birthday. Though it was literally a painful birthday! Thanks to the bees that left her a lesson; age is just a number.
"My butt will deflate more and more, my hands will shrivel and permanently prune, but I will never, ever grow up," she wrote. "It took a swarm of bees to remind me that a b-day is nothing but a number. Each day I choose my age. Today it's 27, going on 28. How old will you bee today?"
