Chrissy Teigen Claps Back At Trolls Who Criticized Her Weight

She is NOT here for it

We all know Chrissy Teigen is a modern Twitter hero. She shuts down everyone from Donald Trump to Piers Morgan and can always be counted on to stand up for the underdog. But her vicious takedowns and home cooking videos aren’t for everyone. There are plenty of trolls coming at Teigen every day, most of which she ignores.

Wednesday, however, was a little different. Teigen, who gave birth to her second child, Miles, 11 months ago, was forced to clap back at a troll who criticised her weight.

A man, Jose, didn’t take well to her take downs of various Republican government officials, decided it was his right to “attack” the model and mother, because she also “attacks” people.  

“Tiegan likes to attack people, so i’m attacking her weight, chubby needs to get to the gym,” he wrote.

Teigen was NOT having it.

“I hate to say this but…you are not a small person? also I don’t care about my weight sooooo this does not hurt.,” she retorted back.

And while we don’t condone one insult with another, considering Teigen puts up with a lot of flack for gaining weight since the birth of her two children, we see where she’s coming from.

But she wasn’t done. Replying to a new-deleted tweet from another hater, Teigen shut down comments about her cheeks, as the troll asked if she “filled” her cheeks.

Teigen has been open about struggling with her weight, telling ET she gained 20 pounds since giving birth to Miles.

“Basically I am 20 pounds heavier than I was before Miles. I never lost the last bit because I just love food too much. Just coming to terms with my new normal, when I had this certain number for so long!”

Haters be damned, Chrissy Teigen is NOT here for you, trolls.
