Chrissy Teigen responds to the criticisms directed at her after she was caught on camera allegedly tripping a woman while hosting 2015 Billboard Music Awards Sunday night, May 17. "I have dubbed today 'do not read the comments' day -- although I should dub every day this day," she tweeted.

Teigen was seen making her way on to the stage when a female suddenly stumbled over the host's red dress while trying to get out of the way. The model took the heat for not stopping to help the woman. In her defense, Teigen said, "For the record i couldn't even see the woman falling behind me."

"She stepped on my dress and i was trying not to eat sh*t," she continued. "Everyone is saying i am some sort of monster for not stopping and giving her CPR or something -- she is fine, was not a big deal." She mockingly added, "She should be out of the hospital by Christmas."
