Chrissy Teigen really impresses me sometimes and I find myself warming to her. Like when she called out Trump for the hypocrisy of blasting liberal political correctness and then complaining, on behalf of Mike Pence, that a theater should be a “safe place” where Pence shouldn’t have to face concerned citizen. That was extremely well put. She also seems to be realistic about celebrities losing baby weight and made it clear recently that having massive amounts of free time and help makes all the difference. After one of those impressive moments Chrissy usually pulls another attention-seeking stunt and I find myself rolling my eyes at her again, hence this article.
At Sunday’s AMAs, Chrissy wore a very revealing Yousef Akbar dress which was made it look like she didn’t have on underwear. It turns out she didn’t, as she has since sort-of confirmed. Then, when giving a speech introducing her husband John Legend’s performance, she dropped an F bomb and had to be censored. Yes she talked about the election, but she was being censored for swearing on television, not for dissing Trump as Huffpo would have you believe. In case those tactics fell flat for her, Chrissy then made sure to post about her dress on social media – and thank the shop which did her laser hair removal. I wish she wouldn’t do this.
Ok we get it, Chrissy is sexy and outspoken and she’s really rocking that high slit right? At what point does hunger for fame subside? She’s famous enough, she could dial it back a notch but it’s like an addiction with these people and they can’t stop. No one was harmed by her hooha they were simply not that interested, which is surely much worse for her.
Chrissy’s husband, John Legend, gave an interview to Extra! in which he talked about her dress, about Trump’s election and his questionable cabinet choices, and about the cast of Hamilton calling out Pence. He’s extremely well spoken and thoughtful as usual. John said he “loved” Chrissy’s dress and that they practiced walking to make sure that a photographer couldn’t “get the exact perfect angle” but that it might have been possible at the right moment. He also praised the cast of Hamilton, saying “I thought they were very respectful to Mr. Pence and I thought they said some things a lot of us are thinking… They had their moment and they didn’t want to throw away their shot.” I just bought the Hamilton mixtape yesterday (it’s in pre-release but a few tracks are available) and that quote reminded me of this song. John Legend has a track on the mixtape. It’s his version of “History Has Its Eyes on You” but it’s not out yet.
Underwear-free @chrissyteigen what happened to being a lady? #SMH

How can one call that a dress? Just call it a scarf.
A scarf with sleeves. Lol
It looks like a black scarf diaper.
I saw some photos where you could see her entire pubic bone. She’s likeable enough without these thirsty stunts.
You could see more than that…
Lainey has an interesting take in her podcast, and kind of implies that Chrissy needs to create this drama to stay in the news and further her brand.
She’s probably nice, but because of her excessive thirst I just can’t warm up to her.
I have no problems with her or her dress 🙂
me either
I like how she added that it takes laser hair removal for this to work. She manages to “keep it real” without going into vulgar à la Amy Schumer or Jlaw or Lena Dumbham.
I am not a fan of hers except for the fact that she’s married to the amazing John Legend. The dress, ah, whatever. But she looks so stupid trying to hold it down. You wore it for a reason. I don’t care about seeing the good china at all but next time, just Donald Duck it, for crying out loud.
I find both of them so annoying. All of his songs are so cheesy. And the videos are worse. And she’s such a attentionseeking troll.
Having said that, I don’t care about her dress.
I agree so much with this.
He is cheesy all around and she is so annoying.
Oh, ITA, his songs are often very cheesy. That’s my wheelhouse, though.
I like her a whole lot as well, although I also agree about her stunt-queen ways. She’s not the worst by any means, though.
The fact she is friends with Kim and Kanye tells me everything I need to know about her.
Is she sure nobody was harmed? What about anyone who had to sit in the same chair afterwards?
EEEEUUUWWWW!
If and when a man showed their genitals eg flashers, they are immediately labelled sex offenders or sexual addiction, the act is sexual harrassment and everyone needs councilling and or kumbaya to get over it. High probability of the authorities getting involved.
When a woman does it, it’s cool, worth bragging about and shout out to her lasering clinic.
This dress was worn because of the high risk of exposure which it duly delivered. How is that different from a man in a mac flashing his bits?
Exactly. Plus there is no need to show your cervix to the world disguising it as ‘fashion’.
“Show your cervix to the world????????????” Bit difficult standing up and in a “dress” I would have thought.
Sense of humour?
Absent.
Well, to be fair, my experience with flashers is that it’s an attempt to force something on you, there’s an aggressiveness to it, and it’s more directed at one or a few people. Maybe she has more in common with a streaker, without the running.
A streaker enters the spotlight fully naked. They don’t wait until they are on the field before disrobing. Plus it’s done knowing they will be stopped and or possibly arrested so there is a flaunting authority element to their actions.
A flasher waits until they have your attention before revealing the goods. And only momentarily. Garment worn is chosen for ease of flashing.
Do people call men in kilts who accidentally flash someone sex offenders? I think there is line between doing it on purpose and wearing something “dangerous” without underwear. It’s just genitalia. As long as it’s not somebody standing in front of me throwing open their trenchcoat, I’m good.
Kilts are not constructed to facilitate flashing plus they come with pins to prevent or minimise any potential flashings.
….and this was the female equivalent of a man throwing open their mac to show you their bits. It wasn’t accidental nor was it a ‘dangerous’ dress. It was flat-out designed to show off her bits. The pics above are tame compared to the flashing moment which is rightly NSFW and demonstrates my point perfectly.
Kilts are essentially skirts. You wear them without underwear, you need to know what you’re doing. Pins or no pins. If you go commando under one, you can try to minimize it all you want. You assume the risk. This dress is ugly but I don’t see how it puts her in the sexual predator group. Do you call Duchess Kate a sexual predator with all her butt and biscuit flashing? What about those girls who can’t get out of a damn car without showing everyone their business?
Your argument proves my point.
If a man walks around flashing, something they intend, we all call them sexual predators, but if a woman does it, we all say it’s cool and nothing to see. Either they all are or they are not or perhaps there is a third option going undiscussed which is that they enjoy the thrill of flashing their bits to the public.
And there is a clear difference in deliberately wearing a garment with the express intention of flashing eg a mac or the dress above, and people who accidentally flash because they were caught by wind or don’t know how to exit cars properly.
For what it is worth, i do think Kate enjoys flashing people, but we all put a polite benefit of the doubt explanation for her antics.
Chrissy’s dress falls in the realm of the mac which makes her a flasher. And we definitely saw Chrissy’s biscuit in this dress. It was designed that way. Unlike Kate, this wasn’t brought on by a flimsy, floaty material and strong winds.
On a different note, as someone whose school uniform was a kilt for 10yrs+ i can tell you that there is nothing difficult or complicated about securing a kilt. A wrap dress/skirt is less secure.
@LAK
Thank You . She did this deliberately and for attention and is NO different from a male perv on the subway etc.
Furthermore while this is par for the course for her there are at least 3 other dresses that you can see her entire private parts and she is on record bragging that she doesnt wear underwear even when seeing her period
Thirsty
Yes, my argument proves you point if you go with the premise that these women I mentioned do it on purpose. Which is an assumption on your part. I don’t doubt Chrissy wanted to attract attention with that dress, I just won’t go so far as to assume she deliberately flashed everyone. That dress isn’t any more dangerous than a flimsy skirt on a windy day. I still won’t assume that any woman who wears one is enjoying the thrill of knowing it can happen any second. She may, she may not. That does not make her a predator in my book.
To me, there is a massive difference between being cornered by a stranger who exposes himself (or herself, although I would have to look up how many flashers are actually female) live and in color and puts you – possibly only you – in an incredibly uncomfortable position. That’s pretty aggressive. This is not that. I had to google to see the pics, they weren’t shoved at me. I am not standing in front of someone who throws their naked bits in my face.
I recently saw someone get a bj in the middle of a crowded train station (sometimes I hate living in a large-ish city). I was traumatized for days. And while I don’t exactly go looking for it online, I’ve come across p0rn in my life. It’s not the same thing. That’s an extreme example but you know what I mean.
Lak: You don’t owe me anything, but may I ask what you do and what your background is? I’m guessing scholar of some sort, PhD student or professor something…just curious. You are always so knowledgeable about…everything, lol.
Not all flashing incidents are aggressive or one on one. Some are in private settings and others are public. Like the one we had at school. Every friday afternoon, there he was opposite the school gates. I’ve seen a flasher in a tube full of people and one in the park.
To me there is no difference between them and what Chrissy did. She’s not forcing herself on us one to one or in an aggressive, threatening manner, she’s doing it like the man outside our school gates.
And twitter was talking about the flashing as it happened with early reports showing the NSFW pics with a modesty bar. She walked infront of a bank of cameras showing her bits, with no attempts to cover herself.
In updated reporting, the racier pictures were removed completely such that you could only see the ones similar to the ones above.
Which brings me back to my original point, why do we label all men who flash sexual predators without doubt, but a woman who behaves the same way has extenuating circumstances for their behaviour and we mustn’t rush to label them?
If the situation were reversed and a man walked a red Carpet with his dong exposed deliberately, no one would find it cute, he’d be forced on an apology tour and possibly sex addiction rehab.
Amanduh: i’m none of those things, but i flattered that you think i am.
It’s a hold-over from how i was raised whereby you had to be widely read and be able to discuss anything in detail. No topic was too serious or too trivial. And everyone was encouraged to be opinionated without resorting to name calling or temper.
It helps that i have a photographic memory which means i recall things easily.
Lak: Well, your (British? I think you’re British) parent(s) did a fantastic job as you seem to have vast knowledge on a wide variety of topics. You’d be a great dinner guest…
No, not all flashing incidents are aggressive. I and many of my friends have been flashed at a party by a drunk dude. I didn’t feel uncomfortable or threatened at all. We told him to put it away and that was that. I didn’t label him a predator and neither did anyone else. When you say not all flashing is aggressive, aren’t you proving MY point? It depends entirely on the circumstances. When it’s in front of a school, you can bet you house it’s not done in jest. But again, if it’s an accident or even done accidentally on purpose, in a public setting? I’m trying to imagine a male celebrity doing this and can’t. Not because only women are attention seekers but because they are the ones who are taught that this is how you attract attention. Maybe, before we label scantily clad women who flash us (on purpose or not) predators, we should ask ourselves why they think this is a good way to get attention.
@little missnaughty who said “That dress isn’t any more dangerous than a flimsy skirt on a windy day”
Uuuhm What dress are You looking at ??? She is basically wearing two loose panels of fabric the slit is not thigh high it goes all the way to under her bosom
There is NO way someone can wear that dress without underwear and not expect to expose themselves it is by design and as @ LAK said if a man did it he would be called a perv so there is a double standard
I get it you like her and maybe want to defend her but bringing up kilts and windblown skirts and whatnot are false equivalencies and way off base
It is what it is flashing by design
Littlemissnaughty: i’m not labelling scantily clad women. I’m labelling a woman who deliberately flashed her vjj at us.
If a woman wants to be scantily clad, have at it, but there is a line where it crosses over into flasher in a mac territory, and Chrissy is over that line.
Women are expected to be sex objects, and to enjoy being objectified, so I think that maybe, when these conditions are not met (she’s not available for objectification, or isn’t willing) , the man becomes a perpetrator.
But yes, both situations are equally harming.
Not being modestly dressed does not equal being an object though.
I agree! If a man had his hair-free bits hanging in the breeze people would be appalled. She is just an attention-seeking troll. Sad that she is so desperate to stay relevant…
LAK I totally agree with you!
I also say the same about the see-through “dresses” that so many celebs wear. I just don’t understand why it’s allowed because they’re celebrities, when someone on the street would get arrested for indecent exposure.
All of those see through dresses that I’ve seen on celebrities show a lot of skin (they may even show nipple or nipple pasty, but if men are able to show nipple in public without pearl-clutching or arrest, why shouldn’t women?) but still hide the genitalia. The law doesn’t always require people to cover more than that.
“If and when a man showed their genitals eg flashers, they are immediately labelled sex offenders or sexual addiction, the act is sexual harrassment and everyone needs councilling and or kumbaya to get over it. High probability of the authorities getting involved.”Except for when the man in question is a celebrity. Orlando Bloom and Justin Bieber weren’t accused of committing any type of sex crime or being sex addicts, and the police were definitely not called when they deliberately went fully naked in public. But if an ordinary everyday person walked around in public with their genitals publicly exposed, they’d get in legal trouble reguardless of gender. As far as sexual predators go, the reason why an everyday man who has his genitals exposed in public is more likely to get accused of being a sex offender than a woman probably has something to do with empirical evidence that suggests a man is more likely to commit sexual assault than a woman.
I don’t think Chrissy intended to flash her vagina though, she probably just intended to get attention by being another celebrity seen in an almost-naked dress without actually exposing genitalia.
Tacky and cheap.
Vulgar. She is an attention seeker.
She’s insufferable. At this point she annoys me more than the Kardashians.
She’s so goddamn thirsty and desperate for any kind of attention, but she uses the self-deprecating and defensive humour as a shield against being called a famewhore. Like, just be a giant needy famewhore if that’s what you want, there’s no need to act like flashing your genitals at people on the red carpet was anything less than a cry for attention and relevance. If you’re going to be that annoying at least own it.
That’s harsh. Nobody’s trying to flash their p smh
Really? It looks like she just tossed a bolt of cloth over her head and tried to hold the sides together with safety pins. Of COURSE she was trying to flash her “p” at people. She wanted attention and she got it.
She wouldn’t have worn that “dress” if she didn’t want people to see her bits.
I like her response to the guy saying be a lady. I hate that saying. No one ever tells a guy, act like a gentlemen. Imo, be a lady is code for be modest, submissive and accommodating. Eff that!
Her response was great. The troll needs to do some growing up.
Not true, Snowflake! Just the other day, on the bus, I interrupted three young men’s poor behaviour and language with a sharp “Gentlemen, please” and the three young men (late teens, early 20’s) all sat up straighter, apologized and we all had a lovely ride. We got off at the same stop and we all were saying thank you to the driver and to each other. So yes, we do tell guys to act like gentlemen. Whilst her response was clever and funny, his point was more along the lines of a request for modesty. I see nothing wrong with that. A granddaughter was distressing her grandfather with her red thong showing above her trouser line. A “style” I’ve always found a little rude and in-your-face. I called the granddaughter out, requested modesty when around me and grandfather and others who may not appreciate seeing her underwear purposefully, and got shoved out of the family circle (I was a close family friend for decades, then not so much). The mother let her daughter decide and I was cut out of the family circle. I think we need to remind people to remember the difference between public and private, and be respectful. That’s all that fellow was trying to do.
Context matters though. When women are told to be ‘ladies’ or shamed for not being ‘ladies’ based on issues that have to do with beliefs about sexual morality, there’s a sexist chastity-policing context there that doesn’t exist for men in mainstream society. When that’s the context, ‘Whatever happened to being a lady’ means ‘Chrissy Teigen, please raise your value as a female (by proving you’re not one of those ‘loose/trashy’ women) and make me feel respected by conforming to my standard of modesty while existing in public.” There’s a reason why this dude has no history of asking Lenny Kravitz, Orlando Bloom, or Justin Bieber ‘whatever happened to being a gentleman’ when they exposed themselves to the world. During the Romney/Obama era a few years ago, I remember seeing a lot of conservative men using the ‘whatever happened to being a lady’ rhetoric over the birth control and Sandra Fluke issues, and they also like to trot out the ‘whatever happened to being a lady and respect for others’ rhetoric whenever women talk about topless equality and public breastfeeding. I don’t think Snowflake is wrong at all in saying it sounds like telling women to be modest and submissive.
You may feel the desire to request modesty by the way, but what people with more traditional values don’t always understand is that that certainly doesn’t mean you’re automatically being disrespected when a request isn’t honored.
Thank you otaku fairy. Men don’t get policed for their clothing choices like women do. No one says what a slut to a guy they feel is not dressed appropriately. Women have always been held to higher standards then men. In clothing and sexual areas. Not cool. I don’t wanna see her Chrissy ‘s hoo-ha but some of these comments seem like slut shaming to me. I don’t think she did it intentionally.
That dress is just so…unnecessary. It screams desperate for attention.
Sometimes she says good things, sometimes she annoys the crap out of me. Choosing to wear that dress puts her back into the annoying column.
The photos here are far less revealing than at least one other floating around.
She knew what she was doing when she wore the dress. And no amount of practicing can help prevent showing her bits.
Ridiculous.
Underwear has nothing to do with being a lady. You don’t have to wear them. But just like we don’t want to see random peen, we don’t want to see her vagina. We get it, you’re cool and hip and soo forward! Now put on some pants.
Bless her heart!
I’m an old coot. This dress isn’t sexy. It’s trashy and cheap looking. But if she wants the world to be her gynecologist, go ahead.
Showing your coach in public is NOT sexy.
Sad that she is an attention seeker because she is not idiot and she is enough funny
Aside from her hoo-ha, can we all agree that she should have given herself more time for the botox to settle? She looks like a marionette. And I’m actually inclined to like her but it’s all too much here.
Every time I see a photo of her I think of how painful those cheek implants look.
Last week I flashed an entire street while wearing a very respectable dress to work because of a gust of wind and I do NOT have her amazing figure haha. And I love her reply about being a lady!
If you don’t like her dress, fine. I personally wouldn’t want to wear it. But to label her a predator, a deviant and a whore is ridiculous and sexist. Thanks for playing right into the hands of those who’d gladly enforce rules about what we wear, how we act and where our place is. The woman can wear whatever she wants. You don’t like it? Don’t look. It’s not like she’s personally cornering you to flash her bits.
Also, good on both her and John for caring about politics. I’m glad she called out Trump on his hypocrisy about the Hamilton play. It’s sad that for all of you posting upon here to condemn her fashion choice, not a single one of you made reference to any other part of the article.
Rules are already ‘in force’ as to what we wear. There are laws against public nudity. There are societal expectations as to what is appropriate for public wear. Chrissy is violating that. Yet with the pretense and plausible deniability in the flimsy fabric covering very little. This is why she is getting the extra attention.
She is receiving praise (mostly) because of the fact that she is a woman. I fully agree with others. Were she a man, she’d be fully shamed with a concomitant expectation of punishment (public apology, heartfelt mea culpa).
To argue that she is not a flasher is sexist. One rule for all, yes?
(And perhaps we didn’t mention the politics because we’ve come to escape from politics on a lovely gossip website where we can hunker down and experience mental release from the anxiety engulfing us all? Well, I know I am).
This is not public nudity. Her bits are being covered. Public nudity is flashing your damn vagina to the world without any flimsy covering. She’s at an awards show and can damn well wear what she pleases so heaven knows why one can’t just say, “not a fan of the dress” and leave it at that instead of linking it to her morals and values?
Also, I don’t know if you’re aware but celebbitchy also covers politics so to play the “I’m only here for celebrity gossip” card doesn’t fly.
I agree with you, Eveil. Do I like the dress? No, not really.
But I think the outrage here is unwarranted.
ETA: @ Casey–she is “violating a rule about public wear”? What are the rules exactly? Who makes them and who enforces them?
She’s at an awards show, not the supermarket. She’s not naked and she’s not wearing less than MANY celebs wear to awards shows. It’s actually similar to Toni Braxton’s dress at the 2001 Grammys.
Damn. This country really is taking it back to 1937…smdh…
Agreed, Kitten. Love the comparisons of Teigen wearing a dress that barely covers her bits but it does cover them to a man aggressively flashing others.
I’m not defending Teigen because she’s a woman. I’m defending her right to wear what she wants without someone clutching their pearls and saying that she’s a loose woman because she wore this dress.
If I saw a man wearing this exact outfit, I’d say the same thing that I’m saying to Teigen. “Meh. Not a fan but you wear what you want to wear.”
Teigen has always annoyed me. She is an attention seeker of the worst kind. This dress is inappropriate because she wore it to purposefully expose her lady bits. I had no problem with Toni Braxton in her white Grammy dress bcoz it was meant to be revealing but her bits were kept hidden.
I’m not reading the article and I’m just going to go ahead and live my life thinking that this chick’s hot pocket shot some people with lasers provided by a celebrity spa for secret agents.
Funniest comment on the whole thread!😂
they practiced walking to make sure that a photographer couldn’t “get the exact perfect angle”
Come on!
If you really want nobody to see your biscuit, you’d wear a tanga or something else!
Attentionseeking at its best!
Stop being “sorry” – it was purpose
Big knickers? 😆

Is that Laura Dern, spidey?
@ Lady D – Jaimie Alexander.
Yes, the dress may have been a bit much, but Chrissy rocks. You have to respect her honesty in a culture where so many celebs hide behind the veneer. Chrissy tells it like it is. Love her.
Hum…. I do find it hilarious she shouted out her bikini line tech but I also think it’s tacky as hell that she needed to.
She has the same stylist as the Kartrashians and it’s clear the woman can’t really style people – she just dresses them all the same – the same as she dresses. Boring.
Hope we never hear her complaint about women having to get their kit off in films at anytime in the future.
Sorry duplicate post.
She’s so desperate. I cannot think of a better word to describe someone who walks the red carpet and attends an awards show with a dress that’s designed to show off just about every inch of her body below the waist.
Also I never noticed how flat her butt was until now. Also can we please stop defending women who intentionally wear risqué clothing with the sole purpose of drawing attention to herself; of course she knew that their was a high probability that she would flash the world. And that’s ridiculous and desperate. Just imagine if a guy had worn the bottom part of her dress and flashed his peen everywhere – he wouldn’t get a pass.
It’s not about being prude or trying to force women into a box, it’s about dressing for the occasion and is there ever really an occasion to wear a dress that could easily expose everything to everyone? If there is, I’d wager an awards show / red carpet appearance is not it.
Why wear anything at all? Just go nude. And the “designer?” Please. That design took all of 5 minutes to create and less time to make!
If one can’t say the word “vagina” then don’t wear a dress like that.
