Chrissy Teigen, model and wife of John Legend, is getting real honest about clothing company Forever 21, and she’s mad as hell. I don’t blame her. Apparently, in her early modeling days, the company didn’t want to have anything to do with her, calling her “fat”. Here’s what she has to say about the whole thing, via Daily Mail:
I showed up on set and they asked me if they could take a photo. And they shoot that photo off to my agency, who then calls me as I’m sitting in the make-up chair, and they say, “You need to leave right now. They just said that you are fat and you need to get your measurements taken.”
And I hate you, Forever 21. I hate you so much. Honestly, you’re the worst.
I wouldn’t call her waif-like or anything, but no way is she even remotely close to being what anyone would consider “fat”. What an incredibly f-cked up industry fashion is.
Does this affect your opinions of Forever 21 at all?
It may be the photo and I have never seen this lady before, but I would definitely call her waif-like! Anyway. The fashion industry is so fucked up.
She’s overweight (sorry). As a doctor, I’d advise her to lose a few pounds.
PS. Check out my page on Facebook! I can provide all sorts of diet tips for the Minivan Majority!
when did this happen and where is the pic they took before telling her she was fat?
forever 21 is not somewhere a normal north american woman can shop. a friend of mine shops there, and shes 5’3 size 4 maybe..medium-large. the plus size is a joke. Chrissy is a gorgeous woman, certainly not fat.
