It’s middle aged aspirational women supporting this shit. Chrissy is loathed on Lipstick Alley (they remember what she said about Quvanzhene Wallis) and got a lot of pushback from non-right wing Twitter users when this hit a week or so ago. So it’s primarily white moms aged 30-50 who think she’s “cute.” I do think some companies will see how erratic she’s been and stay away forever, though. Who can tell. I’m not surprised fake-spiritual dumbasses are still following her, that’s incredibly on-brand. There is a really strong class or perceived class element to this. Chrissy’s family was and is way more normal than Courtney’s, Chrissy’s brand IS her kids, her miscarriage, her mom and her husband. Weak minded people are afraid to call her what she is when the person who proved Chrissy was abusive and cruel had and has no one publicly on her side. |
Or they believe people can change and have no problem with who Chrissy is now. A person in their 20s doesn’t make them the same person in their 30s. |
Please. People only say this when it involves someone they like. This attitude doesn't extend to people they don't like, such as Brett Kavanaugh. People like her despite her heinous bullying past and they aren't going to give her up. |
She was allegedly DMing Stodden well into her 30s. She seems unchanged, just IMO. |
Omg Chrissy stop. Turn off your phone-computer-iPad. Go take a walk, do some yoga, play with your kids. |
| Does anyone think she ever helped sell anything? Who aspires to be her? She's always been an obnoxious trainwreck. She happened to marry a successful R&B singer. Big whoop. |
I was never a huge fan. Found her occasionally funny on Twitter. I do like how cooking is the new career for the washed up. |
Omg stop being that annoying poster. No one famous is posting here. You keep claiming this and it keeps getting deleted. Move on. |
+1. I’ve never liked her bc it’s always been obvious that she’s a narcissistic bully. She’ll be back though bc she has a ton of fans, including on this board. |
| Is there a screenshot of the entire Twitter feed? What was she replying to when she said the nap thing? I think those wishing Chrissy gets canceled are dreaming, it's just not going to happen. |
+1000 This is always true. But it's especially true these days because people will collect these bona fides that make them avatars for a certain kind of fan, and it's really hard for someone to turn on a celebrity they've decided is their second self. The reason I'm confident Teigan will make a comeback is that in the past few years, she has talked a lot about issues like infertility, pregnancy loss, postpartum depression, online bullying (ironically), body image, and other things that young and middle age UMC white women have strong feelings about. Women in this demo like the idea of identifying with Teigan. She's rich and beautiful, so if she has some of your same problems, it makes you feel better about those problems. Those same women don't identify with Stodden, or Wallis, for instance. They might be sympathetic to those people, but they don't personally identify with them, and also don't really want to. They want to identify with the hot model with the hot husband who lives in the gorgeous house and hangs out with the Obamas! Obviously. Anyway, this kind of sums it up: https://slate.com/culture/2021/05/chrissy-teigen-courtney-stodden-twitter-apology-explained.html |
No. There is nothing that Courtney could have said that would have warranted that type of response. GTFO. Chrissy's image has been permanently tainted. There's no way around it. |
