On Saturday, the 32-year-old model took to Twitter to reveal that she is no longer using the social media app following the awful update and controversial Rihanna and Chris Brown poll!

Earlier this year, Kylie Jenner, one of the most influential voices in youth celebrity culture, tweeted that her Snapchat use was waning.

In the meantime, we wanna know...

What do Chrissy Teigen, Chelsea Clinton, and Kylie Jenner have in common?

Chrissy Teigen announced Saturday via Twitter that she will no longer be using the app due in part to the ad, and cited the latest update, which has received widespread criticism, as another reason for her departure. But I'm just trying to figure out what the point was with this mess! "I can only think of one person who would do this. but I cannot say. but she....is the worst". "I'd love to call it ignorance, but I know you ain't that dumb!" "You spent money to animate something that would intentionally bring shame to DV victims and made a joke of it!" The singer said her rant wasn't about her "personal feelings", but about all "women, children and men that have been victims" of domestic violence.

Soon after, many Snapchat users declared that they were going to delete their accounts. "Shame on you. Throw the whole app-oligy away", she added.

Snapchat had previously issued a statement apologizing for the controversial ad, which was pulled after it made its rounds on the internet. Snapchat immediately felt the effects of having such a high-profile user condemn them, as they lost $800 million in market value in the span of 24 hours.

While Snapchat does not reveal user data, Teigen has nearly 10 million followers on Twitter and 16.5 million followers on Instagram, so if we had to guess, millions of the 32-year-old's biggest fans will be following her to the next app of choice.
