Blake Lively was born in a place called Tarzana, which is in sunny California, USA! Imagine a place with lots of sunshine and palm trees. California is like a giant playground for movies, and that's where Blake started her amazing journey.

She grew up in a family that loved acting, so it was like having a backstage pass to the world of make-believe from a young age. Her dad, Ernie Lively, was also an actor and even directed her in her very first movie!
