Chrissy Teigen Updates: Chrissy Teigen addressed her past charges of cyberbullying in her first television appearance since her last public apologies. The model appeared on the Today Show on Tuesday to promote her new cookbook, Cravings: Altogether, which was launched on Tuesday, and told host Hoda Kotb that she has since thought about her behavior and taken time apart to learn from her mistakes.
Teigen was called out by Courtney Stodden (who uses they/them pronouns) in May, who claimed the Lip Sync Battle anchor was their bully when they were kids. Stodden told The Daily Beast that the model sent them multiple threatening direct messages and tweets at the time.
“She wouldn’t just openly tweet that she wanted me to take a ‘dirt nap,’ but she’d privately DM me and tell me to kill myself,” Stodden explained. “Things like, ‘I can’t wait for you to die,'” says the narrator.
