Default Chrissy Teigen Blames Media For Ruining Comedy

Chrissy Teigen is calling out the media. 

In a series of tweets posted Wednesday morning, the 30-year-old model described how she felt stifled by the current media climate, which she blames for policing humor and twisting her words for sport. 

"No one is allowed to joke anymore," she tweeted to her 1 million followers. "No one can have fun, or say what they think. It gets blown up into a 'beef' or a demand for apology." She also blamed writers, who she believes "no longer have to actually think" (ouch, Chrissy, ouch), and lamented the loss of "reckless Chrissy."

Read the rest of her tweets below.

so many writers no longer have to actually think to write articles. They just pull tweets and instagrams and call it a day.

It is lame. Sometimes things aren't that serious. It stops me from wanting to say anything because it gets so twisty.

Anyhow, I miss being able to joke and interact freely without it being a freaking "thing". But such is life.

Now I'm sure this will become another "rant". Le sigh!

Teigen has a tumultuous history with social media. She actually quit Twitter back in 2014, after receiving death threats related to a controversial tweet about gun control in the wake of the Ottawa shooting.

The "FABLife" host also might be referring to social media users who criticized her eating habits in November, after she posted a humorous photo of her nightly pregnancy craving -- Captain Crunch cereal -- on Instagram.

"Don’t feed your baby that dyed crap," one follower commented.

The mom-to-be fired back with a series of tweets, letting everyone know she is not the one to mess with. 

if you wanna give me unsolicited baby advice on the damn cereal I eat/what I wear u better unlock your profile so I can see your perfection

We didn't use rant once in this article, Chrissy. Can we make up now?
