Chrissy Teigen has it in her contract that her 'horrible' feet must be hidden or retouched

Veritable queen of Twitter, Chrissy Teigen, can seemingly do no wrong. Whether she's lambasting the 45th President of the United States for his controversial administration, or making some quip about the realities of motherhood, Chrissy's 10.6 million followers are there to like and retweet it all.

And about most facets of her life - her two children, breastfeeding, her relationship with John Legend... you name it - Chrissy's pretty open. One thing, however, is off limits, and it's her feet.

Yes, you heard me correctly: Chrissy Teigen hates her feet.

While we're all programmed to dislike some aspects of our physical appearance, you would think that someone like Chrissy Teigen would be more comfortable than most.

And perhaps she is, but not when it comes to her feet, which she says are so ugly that her contracts state they must be retouched.

Woah, Chrissy.

While chatting with Ellen DeGeneres on The Ellen Show, the mother-of-two casually mentioned that she hates bare feet and immediately went to cover up her own toes, which were on display.

Chrissy laughed, explaining "I have Asian jungle feet, like we're meant to climb trees."

When Ellen, naturally, went to get a look, Chrissy slid off the couch and literally sat on her feet so nobody could see.

Now, as we all know, Chrissy is a model, so just how does she prevent the world from seeing her feet? Well, she and her lawyers actually came up with a plan to ensure her "ugly" feet breeze by unnoticed.

"I used to have it in my Sports Illustrated contract: no feet," she said. "I would bury them in the sand."

And, if Chrissy's feet are on show, she goes so far as to get them retouched.

"You retouch your feet?" DeGeneres exclaimed. "Absolutely!" Teigen confirmed. "You know how people do their butt and their face, and I just go straight foot."

One person that she doesn't hide her toes from is her husband, Grammy award winning musician, John Legend.

"John always says if I die – this is a terrible story already," she told the talk show host. "All he has to do in the morgue – instead of lifting up the sheet on the face – he'll just do it the other way. He can tell by my feet.

"He'll be like, 'Yup, that's her,' " Teigen continued, making DeGeneres chuckle.

Naturally, the internet found the exchange hilarious. "Well, that was quite the feat of courage for her to say that!" one Twitter user wrote," while another exclaimed, "She's adorable!"

"Why don't you like this beautiful pair of feet??" a third questioned.

One social media user even dug out a picture of Chrissy's feet, and as I'm sure we can all agree, they're absolutely fine. 

But I guess even Chrissy Teigen is entitled to the occasional hangup...
