Chrissy Teigen complains of being in the "cancel club" after her social media bullying
Los Angeles, California - Chrissy Teigen opened up about being in the "cancel club" after she was accused of cyberbullying.
On Wednesday, the model took to Instagram and shared a long post about the emotional turmoil she's been experiencing since multiple allegations of bullying surfaced in recent months.
"Iiiii don't really know what to say here...just feels so weird to pretend nothing happened in this online world but feel like utter s*** in real life," Teigen wrote alongside a snapshot of her jeans-clad legs on a couch.
"Going outside sucks and doesn't feel right, being at home alone with my mind makes my depressed head race. But I do know that however I'm handling this now isn't the right answer."
She wrote about feeling "lost" and finally needing "to snap out of this." Instead of pretending that everything is okay, she now wants to communicate her feelings.
Teigen thinks this is all part of being in the "cancel club," about which she has apparently "learned a whollllle lot."
"Only a few understand it and it's impossible to know til you're in it. And it's hard to talk about it in that sense because obviously you sound whiney when you've clearly done something wrong. It just sucks," the model wrote.
The mother-of-two jokingly went on to ask her followers if they or someone they know have also had the same experience: "please let me know if there is a cancel club reunion because I could use some time off my couch!"
On Instagram, the model spoke up about her current state of mind after joining the "cancel club"
Chrissy Teigen apologized for her abusive social media posts
Teigen's post comes in the wake of the severe backlash she got after getting called out for her past social media posts about Courtney Stodden, Farrah Abraham, and Lindsay Lohan.
In one of them, she told Stodden to "go. to sleep. forever," and in another she shared that Abraham "now thinks she's pregnant from her sex tape," along with other insults.
In May, Teigen apologized publicly to Stodden on Twitter before writing an essay for Medium, owning up to her past mistakes.
"I'm mortified and sad at who I used to be. I was an insecure, attention seeking troll," she said and, "Not a day, not a single moment has passed where I haven't felt the crushing weight of regret for the things I've said in the past."
But while she has been open about most of her disgusting behavior back then, she and her husband John Legend denied claims made by designer Michael Costello, who accused Teigen of similar behavior.
