Chrissy Teigen slams troll who criticizes daughter Luna’s hair
Chrissy Teigen was quick to respond to a troll who criticized her young daughter’s hair.
In a video posted to Instagram this week, Teigen, 33, negotiates with her 3-year-old daughter Luna about how many pieces of candy she can have.

“I now call to order the meeting of the candy,” Teigen says in the video. “First off, Luna, I would like you to speak. Tell me about why you deserve the candy.”
“I want the candy [because] I want it and I like it,” Luna, who was seated next to her father John Legend, says in response.
The pair later settled on two pieces of candy.

After Teigen took to Instagram with the footage, many of the model’s followers were quick to comment on the sweet exchange. But at least one person took the opportunity to criticize the young girl’s hair.
“Finally someone brushed her hair,” a troll reportedly wrote, according to Us Weekly.
“All by herself! Maybe she can come do your makeup,” Teigen clapped back, per the publication.
Teigen, the author of “Cravings: Hungry for More,” isn’t shy when it comes to firing back at social media followers who criticize her.
“I have moods like anybody else. Some days, I’ll wake up and I’ll read something and it’ll totally not affect me,” Teigen told Good Housekeeping in January.
“But if I read that same thing the next day — after a night of no sleep and a really rough day with Luna—it naturally gets to you because you’re in a sh–tier mood,” she continued. “If I wake up, and I’m like, ‘Ugh, I feel bloated, I haven’t worked out for a few days’ and I read something about my body? That’s the day that I’m gonna speak up. It’s just crazy how judgmental people can be.”
Separately, Teigen, referring to Internet trolls, told Page Six in May she doesn’t take things as personally as she once did.
“I think you can respond [to trolls] if you’re having fun with them and make it more lighthearted. I used to respond to so many things and I don’t even like it when Twitter is an angry place,” she said, adding “I’m much more able to laugh everything off, so I’ve grown a lot, we’ll say, with Twitter and Instagram.”
Nick Jonas on his sex life being news at age 13
The Jonas Brothers spoke with the U.K.’s The Guardian about getting back together five years after a “deep rift” split them apart professionally. The “Sucker” singers are preparing to release their first album, Happiness Begins, in six years on Friday — and have a new documentary out, Chasing Happiness, on Amazon now.
On the topic of the purity rings the guys wore — and really became known for — Nick, 26, said that his was good because it shaped his view of sex.
“The values behind the idea of understanding what sex is, and what it means, are incredibly important,” said Jonas, who married Priyanka Chopra last year. “When I have children, I’ll make sure they understand the importance of sex, and consent, and all the things that are important.”
However, he took issue with the media obsession with the rings, symbols of abstinence. As he and his brothers, whose dad was a pastor before becoming their manager, got older and started dating, the status of their rings was constantly reported on. (An actual headline from 2010: “BREAKING NEWS! Joe Jonas Broke His Promise to God: The Purity Ring Is Off!” And four years later, after Nick stopped wearing his, ABC News reported, Why Nick Jonas Is No Longer Wearing His Purity Ring.)
“What’s discouraging about that chapter of our life is that at 13 or 14 my sex life was being discussed,” Nick said. “It was very tough to digest it in real time, trying to understand what it was going to mean to me, and what I wanted my choices to be, while having the media speaking about a 13-year-old’s sex life.”
