Chrissy Teigen is getting a ton of backlash from offended fans after she shared a photo of her latest tattoo on Instagram that gives off "strong Holocaust vibes".
It doesn't really matter what she does — she is constantly criticized.
Something you probably never want anything permanent on your body to be called, right?
Nor is it her first controversy, amirite?
Who can forget this iconic "Legends of Ink" video?
"hey guys please don’t talk to us unless u have tattoos we are a cool tattoo family now and we only want to talk to other tattoo families (srry if this seems harsh)," Chrissy joked.
The majority of fans did not seem impressed with her new ink whatsoever.
So, naturally, many of Chrissy's fans that know this fact were deeply offended to see that her new tattoo was so reminiscent of such an enormous tragedy.
Some people simply cringed, letting Chrissy know that her tattoo is not tasteful.
While this person doesn't seem to approve of the tattoo on behalf of Jewish people, they also pointed out that it's ultimately her choice what she gets inked on her body.
Although, surely, that was not her intention...
Evidently, I don't think Chrissy knew about this particular detail regarding Holocaust victims before getting the tattoo.
While she definitely should educate herself on the Holocaust, I'd say she's a day late and a dollar short — seeing as she already has the tattoo.
If we've learned anything from the backlash Chrissy has received over this, it's to not get any numbers tattooed on our forearms.
Hopefully, Chrissy was able to use this hiccup as a learning experience and better educate herself on the topic.
While I think we can all agree that she didn't mean any harm, there's no denying that she may have unintentionally crossed a line.
"I'm part Jewish and my family lost a lot of family members during the Holocaust and I see nothing wrong with this tattoo," they wrote.
Is the tattoo "tone deaf"? Or are people intentionally overreacting?
Let us know what you think!
