Why Did Blake Lively Vanish from Instagram?

Gossip Girl alum Blake Lively seemed to have mysteriously deleted all the photos from her Instagram account and Monday, leaving behind only a cryptic message. It doesn't take much sleuthing to figure out that the move is a publicity stunt for Blake's upcoming movie, and it did its job as it got lots of people talking.

What happened to Blake Lively‘s Instagram account?

The actress appears to have deleted all of her photos from the social media platform — everything from her profile pic, to her fan-loved pranks on husband Ryan Reynolds, as well as her enviable fashion posts.

While it’s unclear why Lively, 30, deleted the photos on Monday, her last post was a bit mysterious — she posted a photo of a completed game of hangman, the answer to which was a question, “What happened to Emily?” — which is also her new Instagram bio.

Fans of Lively were quick to notice the changes, and that the actress is now only following women (27 and counting) with the name Emily Nelson. A few fans speculated that the star’s blank Instagram and sudden love for Emily Nelsons everywhere has something to do with her upcoming film, A Simple Favor. The film, directed by Paul Feig and also starring Anna Kendrick, is an adaptation of a book by the same name in which a woman named Emily Nelson mysteriously vanishes.
