Chrissy Teigen is channeling her Inner Art Theory students!
MEGA
The model-turned-Twitter extraordinaire is famous for sharing her life on the social network; his tweets range from his vulnerable perspective on life to his thoughts on a certain former commander-in-chief.
On Tuesday evening, Teigen used the ‘bird app’ and tapped into her inner art theory student as she talked about her relationship with her body and self-image, and related it to entrepreneur Greg Lansky’s sculpture adaptation of the Venus de Milo statue.
Lanksky’s take on the Venus de Milo sculpture of a nude woman is an attempt to contribute to the ongoing conversation about the negative effects of photo filters and modifications on social media, caught Teigen’s attention on Twitter, and she had some thoughts!
Teigen has long been open about her relationship with her body

Teigen, 37, is no stranger to celebrating her body on social media, but she also freely discusses the weaknesses our bodies can inspire.
In 2021, she took to Instagram to discuss her thoughts on her postpartum body following the devastating loss of her and John Legend’s son, Jack, after a difficult pregnancy.
He would ask his followers to refrain from commenting on anything ‘nice’ and allow him time to express himself.
In her three-paragraph post, Teigen would write, “But man. when you lose a baby halfway through, your body just pauses. It’s irrelevant. There’s nothing to feed on. And you’re just… stuck. Stuck with saggy breasts getting ready to be a bag of milk, belly ready to burn. I’d be lying if I didn’t say this is really annoying. Not only are you really sad, but you have this reminder every time you look in the GD mirror.
He will also tell followers that he doesn’t have a “big ending” to his post or any “positive words” to wrap it up.

Teigen will come across Lanksy’s artistic interpretation on Twitter and jokingly pleaded with his followers to “please love me” after comparing his body to the statue.
Lansky will provide more details about his interpretation in an Instagram post.
“I created this work reflecting the relationship between pain and the feeling of being loved in a world driven by AI algorithms,” Lanksky’s post began. “There is no mirror for his selfie because humanity is a mirror. We are mirrors.”
The statue has an iPhone in her hand and her arm is outstretched as she takes a selfie.
“I would like to offer a continuation of the Venus de Millo,” Lansky would go on to write, “a sculpture made over 2000 years ago that depicts the eternal Goddess within the reach of man.”
“Today, AI algorithms have God-like power over humans,” he continued. “They influence beauty standards with the irresistible promise that those who follow will be rewarded with digital encouragement masquerading as love. And in pursuit of that promise people will experience great physical pain. This makes me feel that plastic surgery can be seen as an act of love and a commitment to participate in the world of lies that we are all a part of…” Lansky wrote.
The Lansky sculpture will land on Teigen’s feed after a Twitter user posted a photo showing Lansky staring at the statue, along with various angles of the AI goddess.

Teigen would retweet a user’s thread, writing, “Oh no, I have every scar on this body lol (also crying) please love me.”
She would go on to explain that it was “a breast job and a breast lift, and a c-section, not a clamp. Also a phone… if she has a bunion, that’s over for me,” Teigen joked.
One Twitter user quickly came for Teigen, citing the artistic interpretation.
“You’re missing the point of the work- art is a reflection of the time we live in- it’s seen through the artist [sic] their points and experiences- if you disagree, that’s cool! Art is about expressing conversation, about dialogue and connection- which this world unfortunately lacks,” they write.
Teigen applauded, “I really don’t have any thoughts on the piece.”
Some users mentioned their distaste for male artists creating interpretations of women’s bodies.
“I overestimate men who work on women’s bodies. it needs to be stopped,” a user writes.
“I hate this part,” another users are weighed. “More men are giving opinions about women’s bodies that no one is asking for.”
Others praised the artist’s portrayal of scars.
“A beautiful war scar,” an fan comments.
“Women have scars from giving birth, working hard for the family. We are tough moms,” another follower commented.
