To take a page from Taylor Swift’s book, is it just me or is Chrissy Teigen, like, fully LIVING right now? This supermodel is one celebrity who clearly gets that life is so much more than red carpets, runways, and riches — as evidenced by her candid and hilarious Instagram account. Chrissy seems like an awesome inspiration and role model for how to embrace life. But, more than that, she seems like someone who would be a kickass friend.
Here, 16 reasons why I want Chrissy to become my new BFF:
1. She somehow finds the energy and motivation to cook a healthy meal after a 12-hour workday (as host of the upcoming show, “Lip Sync Battle“). Maybe when we’re BFFs, that trait will rub off on me?

2. She’s not afraid to take beauty risks — and have fun with them. (And seriously, her hair looks good any color.)

3. She gives credit where credit is due — and in the process, reminds us that celebs don’t wake up like this, thank God. (Well, maybe Beyoncé does.)

4. She has a heart and uses her enormous social media platform to make the world a better place.

5. She understands that cheese makes every dish better. I’m not 100% certain what she’s cooking, but doesn’t it look yummy?

6. She embraces her eccentricities. In public.

7. She can laugh at herself and her now infamous “ugly cry face.” (But seriously, if any of my “ugly” faces looked like that, I’d print out 11×14 photos of them and hang them all over my walls.)

8. She isn’t afraid to reveal that even supermodels get dry skin. (I get dry skin, too, Chrissy! Twinsies!)

9. She’ll never outgrow her inner five-year-old, which means she’ll never become old and boring.

10. No seriously, cheese makes everything better. Just succumb. Chrissy does.
I gotta say, it’s better with a cracker

11. She knows that any holiday is an excuse to make — and eat — funny-looking junk food. Everything in moderation, right?

12. She’s figured out how to make healthy food less boring. And I’m willing to guess she — like me — makes up songs about everything, not just spaghetti squash.
