‘Shoes Had Me Doing a Double Take’: Chrissy Teigen Flaunts a Sultry Dress, Yet One Look at Her Feet Stops Fans Cold

Feet and toes often tend to steal the spotlight on Chrissy Teigen‘s Instagram page anytime she uploads a new post.

On Aug. 1, the wife of singer John Legend got all glammed up to pose in the window at a clothing store. She shared a photo of herself in a black dress with hanging fringe, black shades, a black and white checkered scarf on her head, paired with a Chanel handbag.

Fans in her comments complimented Teigen’s style, including one who said, “Omg Chrissy you look mighty fine.“ Another wrote, “Legzzzz fo dayzzzz!!!!!!”

A third said, “Wowee! Chrissy- this picture with your gorgeous long legs with that DARLING @chanelofficial bag that I love soooo much!”

Aside from her outfit, many zeroed in on Teigen’s “pretty” feet to say they loved her black and clear strappy heels. But those who zoomed in noticed that one shoe was missing a strap around the ankle.

“How come only one shoe has an ankle strap?” asked one confused observer. Another said, “Shoes had me doing a double take.”

Another noticed, “Yeah, me too, both shoes are different!”

This isn’t the first time feet have appeared on her page. Teigen was called out over her July 10 dinner prep post, with many claiming it was unsanitary for her 9-year-old daughter, Luna, to have her feet on the kitchen counter while preparing their “beloved family fish recipe.”

Last November, the model and “Cravings” author shared a similar video of her and Legend’s other children, Luna, 8, Miles, 6, and 1-year-olds Esti and Wren, whipping up something to eat in the kitchen.

“Is it me? But why are dirty feet on the counter? I love you guys, but that doesn’t seem sanitary,” one person asked.

Every now and again, Teigen has a few people come to her defense, claiming it’s nobody’s business what she does in the home she resides in with her family.

As a celebrity chef, she’s had a successful career selling multiple cookbooks, partnering with major brands to release a cookware line, baking mixes, and other culinary ventures. She even completed a condensed program at the French Culinary Institute. Yet and still, many have suggested she take more sanitary measures when cooking in the kitchen, given her knowledge and background.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
