Chrissy Teigen has relayed a story via social media about a paparazzo who asked a racist question about her husband, John Legend, when they arrived in New York.
The model took to Twitter on Thursday, Jan. 19 and tweeted the offensive question and remarks she heard from the photog.
"Paparazzi at JFK just asked me 'if we evolved from monkeys, why is John Legend still around?' - and people wonder why celebs lose it in pics," she wrote.
Also, john is right next to me. The balls.

As if that's not jaw-dropping enough, Teigen said that the pap decided to tell her an anti-Semetic joke as well asking, "if a Jew were a vampire, would he still be afraid of crosses?"
He also went from "what's an easy recipe to make at home" to "if a Jew were a vampire, would he still be afraid of crosses?"

The 31-year-old called his words "F**king disgusting."
I was very kind. Answered cooking questions, then he came with that. Fucking disgusting.

Many of her followers inquired how she was even able to remain calm after hearing such things to which Chrissy replied that she maintained her cool and did not go off because that's exactly what some of the paparazzi want.
"They live for that photo and lawsuit,” she said.
Nah. They live for that photo and lawsuit. https://t.co/EE6DlhnjfJ
