John Legend's Wife Chrissy Teigen Receives Death Threats Over Tweets On Canadian Parliament Hill Shooting Wednesday

Chrissy Teigen, wife of John Legend, is getting a lot of attention after she tweeted about the Ottawa shooting, saying, “active shooting in Canada, or as we call it in america, wednesday.” She has received death threats over her comments on the shooting, Wednesday, Oct. 22, at Canada's Parliament Hill.

MStars News previously reported that a gunman killed one soldier guarding Canada’s War Memorial before he was shot and killed.

The 28-year-old swimsuit model appeared to be trying to comment and keep awareness on shootings in the U.S. and gun control, but it seems Teigen gained more enemies than supporters:

That's not a joke. It is a fact. — christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) October 22, 2014

Sorry you don't understand that is a knock at america and our issues with gun control. No one is minimizing the Ottawa shooting.

I'm not apologizing. If you take it wrong, that is your fault. — christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) October 22, 2014

For some reason, Canadians think I am saying they have a lot of shootings. I am not saying that. Sigh.
