On Easter Sunday, NBC aired a live broadcast of Jesus Christ Superstar, starring John Legend as Jesus. Legend’s wife Chrissy Teigen spent the night livetweeting the production and making some good-natured jokes, but she reserved her biggest zings for Bill O’Reilly.
The former Fox News host apparently took issue with the fact that some of the actors in the production had tattoos. This was his hot take. But Teigen had a hotter take.
Watching JC Superstar on NBC. Who knew Jesus of Nazareth ran a tattoo parlor? Geez.

Teigen is referring to the $32 million settlement O’Reilly paid out to a former Fox News analyst who accused him of sexual harassment and who was threatening to sue. O’Reilly lost his job last April, after it was discovered there were other settlements paid out to women who accused him of harassment.
And the crowd went wild.
