Chrissy Teigen says that singers, rappers and actors still worry about awards, because something has to boost their self-esteem – in addition to all the fan adulation and millions of dollars, of course.
Yes, Chrissy was in her usual humor on Tuesday afternoon, leaving Il Pastaio in Bev Hills … where, in the light of The weekendin boycott turned boycott of the Grammys, we asked if celebrities are starting to care less about taking trophies home.

Chrissy’s answer is a resounding YES … and she breaks her theory by telling us why her husband John Legend – who just won his 12th Grammy – is a shining example of what the awards mean for celebrities … despite his relaxed celebration on Sunday night.
She even jokingly shot (we think) at John, who she proudly claims to be the only winner of VEGOT – but was still upset by Oscar’s contempt this year.
Just watch the video … it explains the VEGOT thing. Eat your hearts Whoopi Goldberg and Mel Brooks!
Chrissy hit yet another award … on celebrity kids, and assured us of her little ones – Luna and Miles – I won’t be following at the Blue Ivysteps from.
