SNL Ripped Chrissy Teigen A New One Amid Cyberbullying Scandal And It Was Met With Cheers & Boos

Last night, SNL absolutely ripped into Chrissy Teigen amid the whole cooked cyberbullying scandal.

SNL comedian Pete Davidson, who is not stranger to cyberbullying himself, took aim at the disgraced influencer during the show’s Weekend Update.

“If there’s one good thing about the pandemic, besides getting Chrissy Teigen out of our lives, it’s …” Pete Davidson began.

The audience reacted with both cheers and boos, which made it clear that the topic was rather polarising. Despite the mixed response, Davidson shrugged and added, “I’m relieved.”

Last week, alleged DMs went viral that appeared to show Teigen telling Courtney Stodden to kill themself. Chrissy Teigen has since addressed the backlash.

“Not a lot of people are lucky enough to be held accountable for all their past bullshit in front of the entire world,” Chrissy Teigen tweeted. “I’m mortified and sad at who I used to be. I was an insecure, attention seeking troll.

“I am ashamed and completely embarrassed at my behaviour but that is nothing compared to how I made Courtney feel. I have worked so hard to give you guys joy and be beloved and the feeling of letting you down is nearly unbearable, truly. These were not my only mistakes and surely won’t be my last as hard as I try but god I will try!!”

“I have tried to connect with Courtney privately but since I publicly fuelled all this, I want to also publicly apologise. I’m so sorry, Courtney. I hope you can heal now knowing how deeply sorry I am.”

Stodden recently told The Daily Beast that Chrissy Teigen “wouldn’t just publicly tweet about wanting me to take ‘a dirt nap’ but would privately DM me and tell me to kill myself. Things like, ‘I can’t wait for you to die.’”

Back in March, Stodden spoke out about Teigen’s shady past. In a since-deleted video shared via Instagram, the reality star called Chrissy Teigen “hypocritical” for temporarily quitting Twitter due to negativity on the app.

“What a shame @chrissyteigen is leaving Twitter … it’s too ‘negative’ for herrrrrr #chrissyteigen #bully,” they tweeted, sharing a screenshot of one of Teigen’s tweets from 2011 that made fun of Stodden.
