Now Chrissy Teigen Is Straight-Up Inviting Mommy-Shamers to Comment on Her Posts
Leave it to Chrissy Teigen to always be one step ahead. The model/cookbook author/influencer knows critics love to come for her on social media, so she’s started calling them out before they can even speak out. Take, for example, her latest vacation Instagram. Teigen posted a picture of herself holding her son, Miles, wrapped in a Balinese baby sling—and playfully invited any haters to chime in with their thoughts.
“Learned a little Balinese sling action,” she wrote in the Instagram caption. “Please feel free to get angry and judgmental in my comments below! I know you can’t wait!”
Luckily, Teigen didn’t have too much to worry about. The reaction in the post’s comments was overwhelmingly positive, with many talking about their experience using a similar sling. “I love this! I used to do this to my kids. It’s really good for the baby too. Btw I’m from Malaysia and have similar culture,” one Instagram user wrote. Another person chimed in and said, “I love the sling! Great idea for busy mom’s with older children to tend do. Your posts are always so real and authentic. Thanks for being so open.” Someone else noted how Teigen’s quick thinking put her one step ahead of her critics and commented, “You hit the haters before they hit you.”
And on Twitter, even more users had Teigen’s back.

This is obviously not the first time Teigen’s quips have made her the talk of social media. She’s never been afraid to get honest about motherhood and to call out anyone who accuses her of parenting “wrong.” When an Instagram user recently tried to shame her for a breastfeeding picture, Teigen replied, “Calm your tits and scroll on by.” In another photo, someone claimed Teigen’s son didn’t look too happy with the sun in his eyes. Teigen’s answer? “He told me he loves it.” We’re not keeping score, but we’re pretty sure she’s won Twitter and Instagram about a hundred times over by now.
