It's easy to like Chrissy Teigen.
She's beautiful, she gets paid to wear bikinis, she loves food, and she can be really funny.
But are there a few skeletons lurking in that gorgeous closet?
Behold, the shady side of Chrissy Teigen.
Double speak
In May 2013, Chrissy Teigen took to Twitter to slam Teen Mom star Farrah Abraham for trying
to get the media to believe she'd gotten pregnant after filming a sex tape.
Instead of going the more admirable and feminist route with her criticism and perhaps saying
something about Abraham's lies, publicity stunts, or attitude, Teigen tweeted, "…you're
a whore and everyone hates you."
Some critics considered Teigen's words a bit hypocritical, considering she often bares
her body for money as well.
But when she was called out for her tirade, she stood by her word, writing: "Wow.
Amazed to see the outrage behind calling a staged leaked sex tape chick from Teen Mom
exactly what she is.
Go on with your bad selves."
Name shame
In 2011, Teigen took to Twitter to instigate a feud with comedian and actor Jay Mohr over
the name of his baby boy.
She tweeted: "Nikki Cox and Jay Mohr named their son Meredith.
Their son, Meredith.
Meredith is their son's name."
Mohr wasn't amused and fired back at Teigen with assorted insults, including this one:
"Take your skank ass somewhere where guys like six's in bikinis."
The war went on and on, and Teigen finally surrendered after one particularly cruel jab
at the self-made funny man.
She said, "Much like his career, I have no comeback.
You win, Jay Mohr.
You win."
Parade rain
Teigen also decided to diss actress Tamera Mowry on Twitter for no good reason in January 2015.
Mowry posted a positive pregnancy test result sponsored by ClearBlue, and Teigen indirectly
responded, "How much money does ClearBlue pay celebs to Instagram their piss sticks
this seems lucrative."
When fans called Teigen out, she swore she wasn't trying to pick on Mowry, but the shade
was still hard to overlook.
Kid crush
At nine years old, nominee Quvenzhané Wallis was absolutely adorable at the 2013 Oscars,
but Teigen was not impressed.
She took to her usual platform about it and wrote, "I am forced to like Quvenzhané Wallis
because she's a child right?
Okay fine."
Naturally, a lot of folks took the tweet as cyberbullying of a little kid, which didn't
earn Teigen any cool points that day and proved that her hubby John Legend is pretty much
the only person who's off-limits for her mean tweets.
"What does John Legend look like?
I think he looks like a Paddington Bear."
Helping hands?
When Teigen co-hosted the Billboard Music Awards in May 2015, she was making her way
to the stage when a woman tripped over her gown and fell.
Instead of stopping to help the woman up or even check to see if she was okay, Teigen
just kept strutting her stuff.
Of course, Teigen took to Twitter to air her grievances after the incident, writing,
"For the record I couldn't even see the woman falling behind me — she stepped on my dress and
I was trying not to eat s---.
Everyone is saying I am some sort of monster for not stopping and giving her CPR or something
— she is fine, was not a big deal.
She should be out of the hospital by Christmas."
Uh...nice?
Thin skin
For someone who makes a name for herself trolling others on Twitter, Teigen has a pretty short
fuse when the same happens to her.
In fact, she temporarily quit the social media outlet altogether in October 2014 because
she couldn't take the heat.
It began when Teigen tweeted about a deadly shooting in Ottawa, Canada, writing, "active
shooting in Canada, or as we call it in america, wednesday."
The backlash was almost immediate, leading her to backtrack from her ill-timed comment
and admitted, "it honestly wasn't a joke.
but I shouldn't have made it about us."
Eventually, it got to be too much, and she retreated from the Twitterverse temporarily,
writing, "I can't see anything through the sea of hate and anger that is now my Twitter.
Seriously I can't sift through it all.
I feel sick.
Bye Twitter.
Taking my talents to instagram."
TMI
We all know far too much about Teigen's sex life with husband John Legend.
We could compile an entire list of reasons why, but for now, we'll narrow it down a bit.
In one of her tamer moments, she revealed in Cosmopolitan's June 2014 issue that she
and Legend are members of the Mile High Club, boasting, "We were on our way to Thailand
to see my parents, flying commercial first-class.
We were under a blanket.
We weren't even in one of those pod things.
I feel like we should get a trophy for that…
We're by no means freaky deaky, but let's just say we're open to things."
Yuck.
She's also boiled down the specifics on odd places she and Legend have hooked up and how
he likes her to wear dresses so he can feel her up at restaurants.
Hey, sharing is caring.
Public insecurity
As much as her husband clearly adores her, you might think Teigen would be secure and
confident in her relationship — at least enough to be around other attractive women
without it being an issue.
But she told the New York Post that she imposes a household rule: "No hot nannies, drivers, or maids.
It's an ongoing joke in my house … I trust John, but you never know with these men…These
days, it doesn't really matter what you look like — sometimes cabin fever just strikes
and men do the do."
Of course, that's not her weirdest strategy in life.
"Every third week of every month, I have to walk up a staircase with a crab shell full
of rice."
"That is not true."
"It's good luck, Jimmy."
FABlife feud
Teigen reportedly feuded majorly with FABlife co-host and creator Tyra Banks, but for someone
as outspoken as Teigen, she was uncharacteristically quiet about it.
A source told Page Six that she and Banks beefed over Teigen's lack of perceived professionalism
and about sharing the spotlight.
The insider said:
"You never put two supermodels on the same show together, especially when one's more
than 10 years younger than the other.
They are so different.
Tyra thinks about everything.
She thinks about what to say, down to when to move her arm.
Chrissy is from the new school, where she says whatever she wants."
Banks quit the series before the first season finished, and the show was cancelled before
a second could begin.
Diva dash
Teigen never turns down a photo op, but when she posed with Legend on the red carpet at
the Grammys in 2015, it was a bit much for her.
In between smiles for photos, she flipped out and cursed at photographers.
"Don't yell at me.
F---."
She did the same thing at the 2015 Billboard Music Awards that May.
"I f---ing hear you.
Shut up."
With that kind of reaction, you might suspect she didn't make a living from being in front
of the cameras or something …
