“I have a Megan Thee Stallion joke but it needs to be twerked on,” Chrissy tweeted.
It’s safe to say Chrissy’s joke didn’t go over so well. People quickly called her out for joking about someone who was recently injured:
@chrissyteigen This is fucked up Chrissy, what happened to megan the stallion was very traumatic and right now we should only be wishing her support and love, especially when speaking on her name.
Since @chrissyteigen “loves” Megan so much she could’ve hopped on her 13 million follower platform to say, Megan is recovering from a gunshot trauma, pls send her love and healing vibes. But instead she decided to make Megan the butt of a corny ass joke. And that speaks volumes.
Chrissy Teigen needs to apologize to Megan Thee Stallion right tf now. Cant believe John Legend out here letting his wife make jokes about a black woman who was shot, tf? In 2020? Dont black lives matter to yall? @chrissyteigen @theestallion @johnlegend
Megan recently opened up about being “hurt and traumatized” by the incident and seeing people joking about her online:
Black women are so unprotected & we hold so many things in to protect the feelings of others w/o considering our own. It might be funny to y’all on the internet and just another messy topic for you to talk about but this is my real life and I’m real life hurt and traumatized.
One fan…
