Vacation home rental service Vrbo is taking heat for adding model Chrissy Teigen as a brand partner and featuring her in a new ad, as Teigen continues to face fire for years of online bullying and telling model Courtney Stodden to commit suicide.
Vrbo added Chrissy Teigen and her pop star husband John Legend to an ad that played during the Monday broadcast of the finale for
The Voice on NBC, a singing competition show on which Legend is a judge.
But the company quickly found heavy criticism for including Teigen as she continues to face criticism for online bullying and telling model Courtney Stodden to kill herself six years ago. Teigen apologized for the abusive social media messages.
