13 Times You Wanted To Be Chrissy Teigen's BFF

by Nicole Pomarico

Anyone who follows Chrissy Teigen on Instagram, Twitter, or has ever even looked at her face is aware of one simple fact: She is an amazing human and the ideal best friend. Whether she's firing off comebacks for people who are too-involved with her baby bump, speaking her mind on Twitter, or cooking up delicious recipes for her website, Chrissy Teigen is the best. There are plenty of other celebrities who do what she does, like Gwyneth Paltrow, but for all of her DIY ideas and Goop, Paltrow has never been able to master sass against the media (and her followers) the way Teigen does so flawlessly.

Besides, now that the 29-year-old is officially expecting her first baby, I can't wait to read her commentary on mommyhood — and everything else, as per usual. John Legend, I have one thing to say to you: Congrats on your awesome wife, man.

If you're anything like me, there have been plenty of times when you wanted Chrissy Teigen to be your best friend than the ones on this list, so this is by no means exhaustive. I'd be lying if, more often than not, I didn't chuckle at Teigen's tweets, pretending that we are besties already... even though we've never met.

5. And Actually, When You Realized She'd Make You Amazing Food Anytime You Hang Out

If you haven't been to Teigen's cooking site yet, run, do not walk, to Delushious immediately. There are so many amazing recipes waiting for you, and if you cook one of Teigen's creations and Instagram it, there's a chance she'll share it on her site. And that's clearly step one of best friendship.

6. When She Stood Up For Herself And Her Baby Bump

When a celeb is pregnant, it's basically open season for people to comment on the size of their baby bumps and the things they're doing wrong in their pregnancy. Teigen had a brush with that phenomenon when she shared her first baby bump pic earlier this month, and when people started getting way too far in the business of her unborn fetus, enough was enough. Atta girl!

It's like looking in a mirror.
