American model and author Chrissy Teigen had a start of 2019 to forget early Tuesday morning.
While co-hosting NBC’s New Year’s Eve with Leslie Jones and Carson Daily, Teigen was poised to ring the new year with a memorable moment. Instead, she was involved in a live-television moment destined for the blooper reels.
When the clock struck midnight, Teigen went for a hug or kiss with Jones. Instead, she was solidly whacked in the face by an umbrella.

Teigen can look on the bright side. The new year can only improve after that start!
