“I’ve always been portrayed as the strong clap back girl but I’m just not,” she explained. “My desire to be liked and fear of pissing people off has made me somebody you didn’t sign up for, and a different human than I started out here as! Live well, tweeters. Please know all I ever cared about was you!!!”
Not too long after the statement, the account was deactivated. Tiegen often received criticism for tweets she sent out and the last straw may have been the uproar about her upcoming collaboration with Kris Jenner on cleaning products, with many users calling the cookbook author a sell-out.
“hey, not everything I say on my twitter is going to be relatable to you because it is my life and my twitter and my stories. I see your tweets, I get your jokes, you are so funny, yes, you really nailed me,” Teigen clapped back last month when many fans were unimpressed by her accidentally spending $13,000 on a bottle of wine.

Bullied Off?
So Chrissy Teigen deleted her account. So basically a woman of color who is grieving the loss of a child and simply wanted to share funny thoughts and yummy recipes was bullied to such an extreme that she had to leave in order to protect her mental health.

Not Perfect
Chrissy Teigen has plenty of really bad takes. She’s made bad jokes. She’s out of touch with the working class. That doesn’t make it OK for anybody to harass her. That’s toxic behavior, and yes, you trolls on the left are the same as the toxic people on the right.
