“#Chrissy Teigen Does NOT Look Back Fondly On Her Time As A ‘C-Class Naomi Campbell’ Bikini Model
\n<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\nThink the life of a runway model is luxurious off stage? Chrissy Teigen<\/strong> is here to tell you otherwise!<\/p>\n

The supermodel took to Instagram<\/strong> on Monday to take a (cat)walk down memory lane as she reminisced about her days as a model during Miami Fashion Week \u2014 which was \u201cbasically my equivalent of walking Paris couture.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the throwback photos<\/a> of Teigen werking the runway looked glam af, the cookbook author went on to reveal just how UN-glam things were for her behind the scenes at the time. Dubbing her former self as a \u201cC-class Naomi Campbell<\/strong>,\u201d (LOLz) the 35-year-old explained:<\/p>\n

\u201c[I] was talking about my days of Miami fashion week and how it was basically my equivalent of walking Paris couture.200 bucks a show minus agency and I\u2019d wait 5\/6 hours sitting on the floor of the Mondrian to be seen. Booking a show at the Setai, walking over the pool, oh my god the excitement, C-class Naomi Campbell coming throughhhhhh!!!!!!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Ha!<\/p>\n

John Legend<\/strong>\u2019s wife continued:<\/p>\n

\u201cDinner with randos at Prime 112, ordering enough food to take home to eat for the week cause the fashion show money would disapp<\/a>ear with agency fees. Sleeping in a two bedroom at the Flamingo with 5 other girls, MEMORIES!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Wow. The dream is very different from the reality sometimes!<\/p>\n

Tiegen walked in a number of swimsuit fashion shows in 2010, around the same time she was featured in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue<\/em>. As time went on, however, she became more of a fashion show spectator, with her career pivoting toward her cooking brand and TV hosting gigs.<\/p>\n

Still, the mother-of-two occasionally likes to look back at her modeling days. Last year, she reflected on the constant weigh-ins she and the other models would have to do, telling Glamour UK<\/em>:<\/p>\n

\u201cWith model agencies, it was normal to get measured too, and I did it myself mainly, so when you had direct bookings without castings, [the clients] knew what they were getting. There were jobs I would turn up to and they would say my measurements were off and it was the worst feeling to be kicked off the job.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

She continued:<\/p>\n

\u201cIt happened three times. The client had booked me directly. I had half my make-up done and they asked me to get up and take a few photos, to test the light. But they sent [the pictures] to my agency and the client fired me on the spot. I didn\u2019t do any jobs without first going to a casting meeting for years after that.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Chrissy also reflected on getting breast implants when she was about 20 for her swimsuit modeling career, adding:<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought, if I\u2019m going to be posing, laid on my back, I want them to be perky! But then you have babies and they fill up with milk and deflate and now I am screwed.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The superstar ended up getting her implants removed in 2020; we have a feeling she doesn\u2019t look back on them any more fondly than she does her bikini modeling days.<\/p>\n
