Chrissy Teigen shared more than her followers expected on Twitter recently.

Teigen, 27, posted a risqué image of herself on Twitter and Instagram of a behind-the-scenes action taking place at a photo shoot. In the image, the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue model was completely in the nude while getting a spray tan. The image was taken down because one of her nipples was showing. Teigen knew she was taking a risk by posting the racy photo on the social media site and said so in the caption.

"If this doesn't get me suspended I dunno what will #happy2000000," Teigen tweeted.

Teigen, who is dating Grammy Award winner John Legend, sent another tweet blaming alcohol for the reason why she posted the picture.

"Sh*t. I didn't think it was that bad but I'm on the wine," she wrote.

The half Norweigan-half Thai beauty then tried to explain the exposure of her uncovered body parts.

"It's not a nipple it's a shadow it's not a bush it's a shadow oh god I just blew it up on my computer I get what you're saying oh no," she explained on Twitter.

The racy image has since been removed from Instagram but not before many reports posted the picture on their company websites. 

Teigen has made her third appearance in the 2013 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.

Teigen, who is engaged to singer John Legend, first appeared in the annual magazine in 2010, thanks to an introduction to SI casting crew by her friend, model/actress Brooklyn Decker. 

Legend proposed to Teigen during the holidays in 2011.

"John Legend and his girlfriend, model Chrissy Teigen, got engaged over the holidays in 2011 while vacationing in the Maldives," his rep, Cindi Berger, told People

The couple have been dating since 2007.
