Chrissy Teigen Says She Could Never Join ‘RHOBH’ Because the Cast “Scares the Crap” out of Her

Sure she’s a model, a noted food lover, and cookbook author, but Chrissy Teigen is probably also just as well-known for her love of reality TV as she is for her career.

Teigen routinely discusses all of the Real Housewives shows on her Twitter account, so it makes sense that her fans would be curious if she’d ever want to join the cast of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. While Teigen was a guest on Andy Cohen’s Watch What Happens Live this week, he asked her as much, and she unequivocally told the Bravo head that she’s not cut out for that Real Housewives life.

Cohen himself started the conversation by saying that when he’s asked who his dream celebrity cast member would be, he says, “Teigen. Beverly Hills.”

Teigen responded that while she loves everything about the show, it’s not the right place for her.

“I don’t think that fans of he show are necessarily good on it because we know too much,” she said. “They come in and it seems like they’re too fan-girly.”

Teigen added, “Also, it doesn’t seem like it, but I don’t like fighting. I would cry a lot.”

She has previously said that she’d be afraid to join the show because she’s also a little afraid of the women on the show: “Any one of them would scare the crap out of me, because they could really go in,” she told Entertainment Tonight last year.

Cohen tried to persuade Teigen that she wouldn’t have to be a fighter, instead she could be a “fun girl,” like Sonja Morgan from The Real Housewives of New York City.

“But if you’re a fun girl, you’ve also gotta be a ‘something else’ girl,” Teigen said, clearly demonstrating her understanding of the show’s archetypes.

Cohen, realizing he wasn’t going to persuade her, moved on to the fact that Alex Tyree, who is the cousin of Teigen’s husband John Legend, is one of the new stars of Bravo’s Summer House: Martha’s Vineyard. “It’s so cool, we love Alex… and now he’s a part of the Bravoverse! It’s amazing.”

Maybe being a cousin-in-law to the Bravoverse is all she needs.
