Today marks the 10th anniversary of the release of John Legend and Andre 3000‘s hit single, “Green Light.”
Chrissy Teigen took to social media to share the hilarious story of her jealousy-fueled meltdown at the video shoot many moons ago.
She wrote:
Fun fact, I had a jealously-fueled meltdown visiting this video set and made an a–hole out of myself to a large group of people.
Maybe subconsciously but mostly I just thought it was corny ?? LOVE YOU JOHNNY!!!!
Oh you want to know more, do you? Let me try to remember. 10 years is a long time!
Ok after a brief refresh with John, I have pieced together small bits of information…
It began with our friends (John’s managers and co-writers and a couple others) talking about how BEAAAAAAUUUUTIFUL some of the women were…
…and they were! But in my mind they not only were talking about it, they were talking about it on purpose to rile me up. Looking back and knowing how well I know them now, THEY WERE DEFINITELY RILING ME UP AND GETTING A KICK OUT OF IT
I was watching the monitor with all the guys and someone, I can’t remember who, said, “ooooooo look at that girl with John ooooooooo!” so I watched the monitor like a psychotic (tarantula) hawk and in my mind, oh he was in trouble!
Keep in mind John and I met on a video. I was that girl! I know how this s–t works!
He probably laughed at something she said. And in my mind it was some GRAND conversation I was conjuring up. They were probably just talking about craft services honestly but in my mind she was like “hey we should bone” and he was like “haha f—- yeah!”
A few more shoulder touches and laughs with her later, I lost it. Anger turned to sobbing turned to fleeing the set and getting a hotel room. The director (ALAN FERGUSON!) was baffled. Everyone was.
Anyhow I wish more happened but no. I was just a jealous, angry 22 year old. I’m better now. BUT DONT TEST ME
What a boring story. Happy anniversary, Green Light video!!!
I just love me some Chrissy! She’s a hoot!
