Chrissy Teigen jokes about following Lori Loughlin's lead so she can get into hospitality school
  • On Tuesday, Chrissy Teigen told her Twitter followers she wants to go to hospitality school.
  • She also shared that she wasn't sure of her own qualifications.
  • She asked if she'd need to commit a scandal like Lori Loughlin to get into an academic program.

Chrissy Teigen recently expressed her desire to attend hospitality school and reached out to her Twitter followers for advice.

Following her brief break from the social media app, the "Cravings" author hopped back online on Tuesday to openly discuss her qualifications and inquire about how to apply to an academic institution.

"I wanna go to hospitality school. I am old and didn't take my SATs. How does this work now? How do you get into school?" she wrote.

She further questioned if she'd need to use any form of deception in order to get into a program, effectively roasting Lori Loughlin.

"Do I have to Laurie Laughlin photoshop myself being hospitable," she tweeted.

The joke regarding the former "Full House" actress was in reference to her college admissions scandal, which occurred in 2019 and has been dubbed "Operation Varsity Blues."

However, the dig about photo editing doesn't actually apply to Loughlin. As People reported, some parents were accused of editing their children into sports photos. Loughlin's daughters posed on rowing machines, according to prosecutors.

After a year of fighting charges, Loughlin and her husband Mossimo Giannulli plead guilty in May 2020, admitting to paying $500,000 to guarantee their daughters' enrollment in the University of Southern California.

Loughlin acknowledged her faults in court, saying, "I made an awful decision. I went along with a plan to give my daughters an unfair advantage in the college admissions process."

In December 2020, Loughlin was released from her two-month stay in prison. She was also ordered to pay a $150,000 fine, do 100 hours of community service, and spend two years on supervised release after serving her prison sentence.

Giannulli, however, was given a five-month prison sentence, which ended in April. He was also ordered to pay a $250,000 fine, do 250 hours of community service, and is currently being supervised while on his release.

In December, during a Red Table Talk interview, their 21-year-old daughter Olivia Jade spoke out about the situation.

"I wasn't angry, and it's because I didn't have a complete understanding of what just happened. I didn't see the wrong in it," she told Jada Pinkett Smith, adding, "When it first happened, I didn't look at it and say, 'Oh my god, how did we do this?' I said, 'Why is everybody complaining? I'm confused at what we did?'"

She continued: "That's embarrassing in itself that I walked around my whole 20 years of life not realizing that like, 'You have insane privilege. You're like the poster child of privilege, and you have no idea.'"
