Gallery: Chrissy Teigen Just Made Her Twitter Private And The Internet Is Devastated
Rest in peace private, Chrissy Teigen's Twitter account.
The Internet let out a collective sob today as word got out that Teigen, master of sassy comebacks and queen of #relatable tweets, made her account private. But we can't say we blame her.
"It's not haters or trolls or generally mean people. I just feel like I am absorbing bad shit 24/7. My body and mind cannot handle it anymore," she wrote in a few (protected) tweets Tuesday night. "Not strong enough anymore."
Though she has millions of fans all over the world, Teigen, who's outspoken about her political opinions, gets bombarded with nasty threats all the time. She quit Twitter outright in October 2014 after she got death threats from trolls who were upset that she tweeted about America's problem with gun violence.
Teigen seems to be enjoying her newfound privacy, tweeting on Wednesday that she was "LOVING our little private club/VIP party here."
"My mentions are heaven and I still get to see my favorite accounts on the TL! Woohoo," she added.
If you're one of the 2.8 million people who followed Teigen before she went private, you have nothing to worry about. But if you don't follow her and just changed your mind, you might have to wait a bit; as of Wednesday afternoon, she had nearly 6,000 follower requests.
"Now hiring: accepter of followers assistant," she joked.
If you can't wait to get your fill of Teigen's tweets, here are some of her best from the past few years.
