Don’t throw the model out with the bathwater.
Chrissy Teigen defended herself after she was seen soaking herself in “dirty” bathwater in a video shared to her husband John Legend’s Instagram on Monday.
“What is happening here?” the “All of Me” singer, 45, could be heard asking while filming his wife, 38, scrubbing her body off in the filthy-looking tub.

“Getting all my body makeup off,” Teigen explained while using a washcloth and some exfoliating cleanser from Legend’s skincare brand, Loved01.
While the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model was submerged in water that clearly turned brown due to her self-tanner, netizens flooded the comments section to voice their disgust.
“That dirty ass water wtf,” one person wrote.
“IDGAF if it is makeup. It looks dirty,” a second agreed.

“It’s not too late to take this cringe down,” a third fan commented.
“Damn she needs to let that dirty water drain before posting on social media,” a troll suggested.
“too much dirt for just one body, not showering enough I believe,” another wrote.
“That’s what the shower is for…why the bach… soaking in your own nasty filth,” another critic added.

Teigen slammed the trolls by killing them with kindness in a sassy response.
“The water is dirty because I’m getting my body makeup off, like I said in the video my sweet angels!” she wrote.
Others also jumped to the “Cravings” cookbook author’s defense and called out the haters for not listening to her initial explanation.
“Cannes Lions is f–king lit lmao,” Teigen wrote via her Instagram Story.
She and Legend were seen singing and dancing to the music at the fête.
“She literally says that she’s getting her body makeup off. That’s makeup. Not dirt,” one fan wrote.
“Once again this proves society and people great and comment without full context,” a second supporter commented.
“Idc if you like it or not. She said what she was doing and people are commenting based of [sic] they see vs what they hear and see. Context is key.”

“Cannes lions is f–king lit lmao,” Teigen wrote in an Instagram Story of herself and Legend singing a Natasha Bedingfield song at a rowdy party.
Teigen shared photos from the event of herself wearing a chic white structured dress, a stack of pearl necklaces and black mesh shoes.
Her skin was notably glowing with a sun-kissed tan thanks to the aforementioned body makeup she later scrubbed off.
