Chrissy Teigen and her husband, John Legend may appear to have it all now, but that wasn’t always the case for the superstar couple. As if we don’t stan Chrissy Teigen already, in a series of tweets, Teigen revealed to her followers that she’s just like the rest of us when she had an emotional jealousy filled meltdown on the set of her now husband’s music video for “Green Light” 10 years ago.
Late Sunday night, Teigen took to her Twitter for a little bit of story-time where she opened up about the time she got incredibly jealous on the set of her hubby’s “Green Light” music video a decade ago.
Teigen basically admitted that during the video shoot she was in full jealous girlfriend mode and she made a complete a** of herself on the set.
Fun fact, I had a jealously-fueled meltdown visiting this video set and made an asshole out of myself to a large group of people. https://t.co/SiE3h9aisY

Teigen went on to spill the tea on her less-than-flattering moment in the spotlight.
Oh you want to know more, do you? Let me try to remember. 10 years is a long time!

According to Teigen, after a quick refresh, her emotional outburst was sparked after several people on the set kept referencing how pretty Legend’s love interest was in the video. This obviously angered Teigen and we don’t blame her!
it began with our friends (john’s managers and co-writers and a couple others) talking about how BEAAAAAAUUUUTIFUL some of the women were…

Teigen then told fans that the people on the set were PURPOSELY trying to piss her off and she, of course, fell for the bait, hook-line-and-sinker.
…and they were! But in my mind they not only were talking about it, they were talking about it on purpose to rile me up. Looking back and knowing how well I know them now, THEY WERE DEFINITELY RILING ME UP AND GETTING A KICK OUT OF IT

Teigen says that as she watched from the monitor her blood was boiling.
I was watching the monitor with all the guys and someone, I can’t remember who, said, “ooooooo look at that girl with john ooooooooo!” so I watched the monitor like a psychotic (tarantula) hawk and in my mind, oh he was in trouble

Because Teigen and Legend met and began their now infamous love affair on the set of a music video, Teigen said her suspicions and jealousy induced breakdown was 100% justifiable.
Keep in mind john and I met on a video. I was that girl! I know how this shit works!

After watching her husband chat and chop it up with the girl one too many times, Teigen admitted that she had seen enough and ultimately wound up losing her s**t and stormed out.
He probably laughed at something she said. And in my mind it was some GRAND conversation I was conjuring up. They were probably just talking about craft services honestly but in my mind she was like “hey we should bone” and he was like “haha fuck yeah!”

A few more shoulder touches and laughs with her later, I lost it. Anger turned to sobbing turned to fleeing the set and getting a hotel room. The director (ALAN FERGUSON!) was baffled. Everyone was.

After spilling the deets of her relatable tale, Teigen let her followers know that not much else really came of it and she was just being a jealous 22-year-old girlfriend.
Teigen also told her followers that while she has since grown and learned from the debacle, she’s still the HBIC in her family and she’s not to be tested.
Anyhow I wish more happened but no. I was just a jealous, angry 22 year old. I’m better now. BUT DONT TEST ME

Teigen’s story is just a reminder that it doesn’t matter how beautiful you are, how rich and famous you may be, all girls get a bit jelly from time to time.
