Chrissy Teigen is no stranger to dividing people on the internet due to her controversial thoughts and actions – and she has unsurprisingly just done it again!
The 39-year-old Cravings author slammed Donald Trump‘s White House for seemingly mocking Selena Gomez in a video released last month, after she (also somewhat controversially, may we add) filmed herself crying over Trump’s deportations.
If you recall, the White House released a video titled: “Moms of Victims of Illegal Aliens SLAM Selena Gomez: You Didn’t Cry for Our Daughters.” The video featured footage of the Rare Beauty founder crying in her now-deleted video, alongside interviews from three women whose children were allegedly killed by undocumented people. And as expected, the internet had many, many thoughts about Chrissy’s reactions to the White House’s video.
“I love her, empathy should never be frown upon or made fun and the fact the White House has time to make videos is disgusting, lame and loser behavior”

The former Sports Illustrated: Swimsuit model added: “The fact that the White House has enough time to even make a statement or a video about it is [expletive] preposterous and disgusting and lame and loser behavior.”

Social Media Slams Chrissy Teigen's Comments
As expected, there were mixed reactions to the Lip Sync Battle co-host's comments on social media, with many people referencing the past bullying allegations against her.
"Didn't she tell a teen girl on the internet to kill herself?" asked one person on X. "Chrissy Teigen is a hypocrite and has no business talking about bullying when she told a 16-year-old to kil herself," concurred a second, as a third said: "Does anyone care what she thinks or says? I don't."
"Chrissy is the last person you want on your team," quipped a fourth, as a fifth added: "Chrissy Teigen is the last person to talk about having empathy. She used to be the professional internet bully."
A sixth user recalled: "Omg can someone bring up Chrissy's old tweets since she now wants to act like the queen of empathy? She told literal children to go kill themselves and it wasn't that long ago." "Nobody cares what Chrissy Teigen thinks," slammed another X user. "Having Chrissy Teigen in your corner is not the flex you think it is," echoed another.
Some people, more specifically Selena Gomez fans, did like Teigen's comments of course. "I don't like her but she ate that one lil thing," wrote one fan, as a second said: "I stan her now." "Thank you Chrissy," wrote a third Selena fan, while a fourth exclaimed: "She slayed with that!"
