Supermodel Chrissy Teigen recently addressed the controversy sparked by a video she shared where she’s seen transferring a brown liquid from a bathtub into a jug, humorously suggesting it was her husband John Legend’s “body makeup.”

After she removed the video due to the intense reaction it received, Teigen clarified the situation. She took to Twitter to explain that the liquid was indeed iced tea, not dirty bathwater. She recounted the scenario playfully in her tweet, saying, “I was drinking iced tea and poured some in a cup to take a quick security camera-style video for my friends. Saying ‘You guys, I’m so lazy, I’m just gonna use this as John’s body makeup,’ was obviously a joke, meant to show them just how lazy I feel I am. I’m sorry if anyone was alarmed or grossmailed by it!”

Teigen is celebrated for her transparency and humor on social media, frequently sharing quirky aspects of her personal life. Yet, this incident momentarily unsettled some fans, with several expressing their appallment at the idea of bathwater being repurposed as cosmetic makeup.

Unfazed by the criticism, Teigen responded to the mixed reactions with her typical humor and grace. She humorously reassured her followers in another tweet, “I’m honestly touched by the concern and care you guys have for John’s skin. I can promise I won, ‘t be using bathwater for his body makeup.”

With her clarifying statements, Teigen managed to quell the concerns and closed the chapter on this peculiar misunderstanding, allowing her fans to once again focus on her entertaining and light-hearted social media presence.
