Chrissy Teigen Quotes

I am being savagely bullied online.

I'm not on Twitter for abuse. I don't think anyone's gotten on Twitter so that they can be abused, but people do go on Twitter to abuse people.

That's what Twitter is: a very negative place.

I think social media is a double-edged sword for athletes and celebrities. I think sometimes it's the worst thing. It gives people who are kind of cowardly the opportunity to kind of take an open shot at you or your family and say the craziest, most outrageous thing that they can think of, knowing that they would never say that to your face.

Negative social media can ruin a player. Reading your mentions? It's poison.
