It has got to be nice being Chrissy Teigen. I mean, think about it: she is paid to essentially work out and look hot (which is a very roundabout way to say “model”) and she is married to John Legend.
Don’t even get me started on the fact that she is a Halfie, too (Teigen is an American with a Norweigan and Thai heritage). As a fellow Halfie let me tell you: representation is important, guys.
However, you’re not here to hear me spew about ethnic representation in the media, unfortunately. You’re here to learn how much the angel from above Chrissy Teigen is worth.
As of 2018, Chrissy Teigen is worth $2 million dollars.
Don’t feel like that’s a lot? When was the last time you were paid money to look hot? That’s right… never.
Let’s take a trip down Teigen Memory Road and learn about how she made those riches.
