Most people who have endured the COVID-19 test have complained that it's utterly painful. Videos have circulated showing healthcare workers shoving long, slender swabs up patients' noses, and some who have gone through the testing process have been seen writhing in pain. Not Chrissy Teigen, however. The model, actress, author, and mom recently shared a video of herself receiving a COVID-19 test, and according to Chrissy, it "tickled."

Chrissy Teigen quickly received backlash, and one person even told her that her cavalier attitude about the experience would cause tens of thousands of people to opt not to get tested. In response to the messages she was receiving, Chrissy shared a topless photo of herself to Instagram where she revealed that the reason why she was being tested for COVID-19 was that she would soon be undergoing surgery to remove her breast implants.

"Hi hi! So I posted myself getting a covid test on the twitter, as I’m getting surgery soon. A lot of people are understandably curious (and nosey!) so I’ll just say it here: I’m getting my boobs out!" she penned in the caption. "They’ve been great to me for many years but I’m just over it. I’d like to be able to zip a dress in my size, lay on my belly with pure comfort! No biggie! So don’t worry about me! All good. I’ll still have boobs, they’ll just be pure fat. Which is all a tit is in the first place. A dumb, miraculous bag of fat. ❤️" Check it out below.
