Haiye guys … w hen are we going to collectively agree that the internet sometimes needs to be put on mute?
Chrissy Teigen is once again at the centre of an online debate after posting an image that showed her sitting in front of her father’s casket during funeral preparations.
The photo, which also included her husband John Legend and their daughter Luna, quickly sparked backlash across social media, with many users calling it inappropriate and unsettling.
Now look, grief is personal. There is no handbook, no perfect posture, no “approved” way to move through loss.
But this is where things get tricky because posting an image like that naturally raises eyebrows, especially when it involves such an intimate family moment placed so publicly on the internet.
For some, it felt like a step too far into private territory.
A casket is already heavy emotionally, and seeing it turned into a shared visual moment online left people uncomfortable, questioning where the line between mourning and sharing actually sits anymore.
Others argue that Teigan has always been open about her life, unfiltered and raw, and this is simply her way of documenting reality as she experiences it. But even then, not everything lands the same in the public space.
People, in all honesty, are tired of Teigen. This came after the Epstein files caused a stir online, and old tweets resurfaced, bringing her name right back into conversation.
There were posts from the past that people started digging up again, including tweets where she was accused of making inappropriate comments about young girls, alongside earlier backlash tied to her interactions with Courtney Stodden when they were teenagers.
Sis should actually be lying low.
