In thevideo shared to her Twitter, Chrissy sat beside her motherVilailuck “Pepper” Teigenand chatted with the man on her laptop, who introduced himself as Ricardo.
“Hi, Ricardo, nice to meet you. This is my mom,” Chrissy said through laughter. “Thanks for calling me!”
When Ricardo asked how the women were doing, the model responded, “We’re good, we’re about to eat dinner but just thought we’d answer one of these.”
Before hanging up, Chrissy made sure to tell Ricardo, “[It was] nice to meet you!”
After their short chat, Ricardo spoke with PEOPLE and said he was “shocked [that] she answered” and “could not believe it was her.”
Looking back on the experience, Ricardo said that if he could do anything differently, he would’ve “told her I loved her and her husband [John Legend]” and that he “would love to meet y’all one day.”
“And to follow me on Twitter!” Ricardo joked.
But Ricardo clearly wasn’t the only person vying for a brief interaction with Chrissy. In aseries of videos, the mother of two was recorded laughing with her hands over her face as her laptop continuously rang with FaceTime calls.
“Please stop I have a family,” shecaptioned one of the three clips.
Unfortunately for fans, Chrissy quickly put the FaceTime fun to an end after receiving an endless number of calls.
“Everything disabled and changed emails. but I love you guys and thank you for the kind words lol,” shetweetedless than an hour after publicly posting her information.
According to the model, this isn’t the first time that she has accidentally given fans a direct way to contact her.
When one follower asked how celebrities handle accidents like this, Chrissyresponded and said, “not as bad as when I published my phone number on my dog’s collar in my cookbook.”
Chrissy also recently had a social media slip up in July when sheaccidentally shared the entire first episodeof her comedy competition seriesBring the Funnyahead of its premiere instead of sharing a preview clip.
“GUYSSSSSS! so excited to share a clip of my new show BRING THE FUNNY!! Premieres TOMORROW, 10PM after AGT on @NBC!!!!” she wrote, right before friends and fans began chiming in letting her know of the snafu.
“Uhh that’s a whole episode, my dude,”one fan wrote, while a second praised the upsideof the mistake, tweeting, “Can’t tell if this is intentional? I mean, @chrissyteigen is a pretty savvy person … 🧐 Either way, kinda great publicity.”
Whitney Cummingsreplied to the tweet with, “Girl this isthe whole episode!” which led Chrissyto respond, “Why would they SEND IT is my question!!!!!”

Another reply saw theLip Sync Battlehost ask, “Why ru yelling at me 😦” when the user let her know the “FOR REVIEW ONLY” text and watermark was a hint but lauded what he perceived as “a viral marketing trick” that was “working,”since he’d never heard ofthe show.
“Anyhow if you didn’t watch 30 minutes of it online watch it TOMORROW AT 10PM on @nbc!!!! I am really proud of it and the new friendships and love affairs I made!!!” shecontinued in another tweet.
