Chrissy Teigen’s spat with husband John Legend over pizza is a hilarious slice of life.
The model and “Lip Sync Battle” host hesitated on Twitter Sunday night whether to tell the story, but fans of domestic bliss gone awry will be glad she did.
Teigen got a hankering for childhood favorite Totino’s but she and Legend seemed to have a misunderstanding as to what that meant: pizza rolls or just pizza.
The arrival of the Totino’s further escalated the argument into a second helping of saucy griping from Teigen. (Video insult included.)
Perhaps rebutting the suggestion that their feud was staged as a commercial for the brand, Teigen reminded followers: “you guys gotta be crazy for thinking totinos would approve an ad saying ‘I don’t want good pizza, I want totinos.’”
Check out Teigen’s tweetstorm of snack-jones-fueled resentment and remember that marriage is hard. But agreeing on how to bake mass-produced pizza products is even harder.
I told john I wouldn’t tweet this but I lied here goes

I am having a totino’s craving. I don’t want a great pizza. I want a pizza from my childhood, with sliced fresh tomatoes on top

For 30 minutes we have been discussing how to ensure crispness. I say it needs to be on the rack. He says no it has to go on a pan. The pizza is merely en route and I’m so madly excited about it that we are discussing how to handle its arrival

pizza still 20 minutes out, he goes “do you want the tomato on top of it” and I was like no idiot under it yes it goes on top

it’s pizza rolls. he has no idea totino’s makes pizza. but more importantly he thinks I am so stupid I would think tiny pizza rolls go directly onto the rack
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) February 18, 2019
and that I would want tiny slices of fresh tomato on a god damn singular pizza roll
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) February 18, 2019
I am blown away he indulged this conversation, thinking I was talking about rolls. it’s like when michael Scott was like wow Oscar thinks so little of me when he accepted his horrid gift

u know when you start a story and you’re like this is gonna be great. but then it just doesn’t translate well
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) February 18, 2019

— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) February 18, 2019
