Chrissy Teigen can’t do any reason these days.
The former Sports Illustrated model is once again picking up on social media, this time to support her husband John Legend, who was invited to perform at President Joe Biden’s inauguration ceremony.
The stacked lineup, which includes Garth Brooks, Jennifer Lopez, Lady Gaga and Bruce Springsteen, among many others, recorded their acts for television audiences on Tuesday.
But despite the star-studded presidential transition, not everyone was dragged into the celebrity caravan to DC, with the city still rebelling from the riot at the Capitol on January 6th.
On Tuesday, Teigen, a vocal supporter of Biden during the election, tweeted about his family’s excitement over his trip to the White House: “Happy packing for the inauguration.” wrote the 35-year-old, along with a photo of her son Miles with an uncomfortable fat lip before the event.
But some fans found his happiness offensive.
“Hey, Chrissy DC residents aren’t very ‘happy’ right now and can’t even ‘pack their bags’ happy to drive to the grocery store because of the military state the city is in, but yes, LOL is especially in a pandemic. How happy !!! ” tweeted @staceybrnan.
When another fan pointed out that Teigen and his family weren’t involved in the Capitol storm, @staceybrnan doubled down by calling the author of the cookbook “Cravings” “deaf” for traveling to DC – “when John does a concert no one will even be able to see. “
“Everything is a privilege and it really minimizes what happens to DC,” he said.
Viewers will be able to watch the singer’s “Ordinary People” show tonight on various TV channels and social media platforms. But @staceybrnan won’t have anything.
“Why couldn’t he do a virtual performance and also why does his whole family have to go when literally no one can move around the city?” she asked. “I should turn on the TV,” he concluded, referring to Teigen and his family.
Then Teigen came in again. “For f – – ks sake, why are you always always mad at me?” he lamented. “All I want to do is make you happy or at least leave you with a neutral feeling of indifference.”
Many fans, including DC residents, came to Teigen’s defense against the DC privilege watchdog.
“Please do not speak on behalf of DC residents. Thanksssss, ”he said @ZeroACento.
“Some people just choose to be absolutely evil for no reason” @ aliberk65 replied al fil. “I am just sorry. I’m sorry for those who have to be around you. So much hatred in the heart.
“This is a unique opportunity and a historic moment. She has the ability to make her children witness the first biracial woman – someone who looks like them. – Become the Vice President! They will always remember it. I live in DC and it hurts. [Don’t] lose your anger against her ” added @kerirulz.
Teigen doesn’t seem to let criticism get in her way, and she’s as excited to see Biden sworn in as the other 81 million Americans who voted for him.
And, like us, it’s also very advertising for J.Lo.
In a series of videos he shared while watching events unfolding outside the DC hotel window on Wednesday morning, he exclaimed, “Breaking News, Breaking News: It’s J.Lo and A.Rod!”
