[Chrissy Teigen](http://motto.time.com/4769373/chrissy-teigen-plastic-surgery/), model, [Twitter fairy godmother](http://time.com/4395300/chrissy-teigen-bought-fan-blender/), and [expert Internet troll](http://time.com/4690893/chrissy-teigen-comeback/), might have pulled off her best burn yet: getting a matching back tattoo with a random stranger to tease her husband [John Legend](http://time.com/4476379/john-legend-activism-fatherhood-music/).

Teigen, who’s currently on the road with daughter Luna for Legend’s _Darkness and Light_ tour, took to a beachside henna tattoo shop in Florida with Luna and stranger-turned-tattoo-compatriot Eddie to get temporary tattoos to “get back” at Legend for dancing with a female fan during his concert. Thankfully for us, Teigen documented the entire episode on Snapchat, even telling fans that they “get to pick your ultimate henna on my lower back.”

A friend of Teigen’s who filmed the event on Snapchat added some further commentary on the hilarious escapade.

“John got to dance with a woman at his concert, so Chrissy gets to take one man and hold hands with him,” Teigen’s friend said before they found Eddie. “John, don’t be jealous!”

Not only did Teigen walk hand-in-hand with Eddie to the shop, they both got matching lower back henna tattoos that simply read: “It’s a prank bruh.”

Watch Chrissy tease John Legend with the ultimate prank below.



## Transcript

[00:00] [ MUSIC ]
[00:02] Nice
[00:04] Crissy, beautiful. It's been a while since I've done
[00:07] anything, swimsuit. I haven't shot since baby.
[00:10] [ UNKNOWN ], that's nice. Beautiful. But of course you
[00:13] know that MJ and everybody at Sports Illustrated in
[00:16] general is gonna really embrace your body no matter
[00:18] what's happening and embrace the changes. Wow,
[00:20] gorgeous, gorgeous. I just wonder if she has to
[00:24] have a baby every year, because I've never seen her
[00:27] look so good and move so great and take such
[00:30] amazing pictures. So pretty, my god How great? I love
[00:34] it. IT took Jane's shooting it and for me to see the
[00:37] photo to know that it It's gonna be okay, but my gosh.
[00:41] Like, I was not prepared for that. She showed up
[00:46] telling me she would only shoot one- pieces, and if I
[00:49] could throw a blanket over the top of her, that would
[00:51] be great. And by the end of it, I think she
[00:55] was Wearing nothing. Nice,
[00:59] there you go Crissy. That's nice, glorious. I forgot how-
[01:04] Little smile, just make it a little softer, beautifully done.
[01:07] Stupidly painful is to just like pop your **** all day.
[01:10] [ LAUGH ] It's exhausting. My
[01:14] hips hurt. Thinks models are just so effortlessly
[01:17] walking around naked all the time. You have to really
[01:20] prepare mentally for something like that and trust the
[01:22] people that you work with. And she does that. All right,
[01:23] eyes on. I think she surprised herself on this trip,
[01:27] because I don't think she was seeing herself quite the
[01:30] same way we were seeing her. [ MUSIC ] Gorgeous,
[01:34] Chrissy MG's right. I don't want to say this to her,
[01:38] but the tinier the suit the smaller and hotter you
[01:42] look. I hate that. I hate that she's right. For
[01:47] a mother it's nice to be back in your element. And it's
[01:50] so important to my well being That I come out here,
[01:54] and I'm able do this, and do something I'm proud of.
[01:56] [ BLANK_AUDIO ]
