Chrissy Teigen posts lengthy apology for past hurtful tweets: 'I was a troll'

'In reality, I was insecure, immature and in a world where I thought I needed to impress strangers to be accepted,' Teigen wrote.

"When I first started using social media, I had so much fun with it. I made jokes, random observations.

I thought it made me cool and relatable if I poked fun at celebrities," Teigen wrote."Now, confronted with some of the things that I said, I cringe to my core.
