Singer John Legend‘s cute model wife Chrissy Teigen admits that she sometimes has body insecurities and gets jealous about other women’s bodies when she sees them on social media.
In a recent live chat with Hellogiggles, the mother of one said sometimes when she sees other women’s body pictures on Instagram looking so good, she feels depressed and not good enough afterwards.
“I’m in a weird phase where I’m jealous of those bodies, but I also really want to be cool with my own body. I really want to be that person for you all, that says, You don’t need that fucking shit.
My old ass will go on social media, and I will look at the Photoshopping, Facetuning, and the apps and everything that goes into creating what is now a hit Instagram photo, and I feel insanely inadequate,” Chrissy said.
She added that sometimes she cried out to her hubby over feeling some type of way that she may never have that body. Ant at these time it just makes her compare herself and lose balance of self esteem.
