Katie Cassidy and Chrissy Teigen engaged in a Twitter brawl of sorts on Sunday during the Seattle Seahawks and Green Bay Packers football game. The topic of their feud was Fox’s Erin Andrews.
It seems Katie Cassidy’s Arrow costar Stephen Arnell may have inadvertently started the back-and-forth with a tweet, but Cassidy and Teigen grabbed a hold and didn’t let go–at least not for a while.
Erin Andrews had reportedly wrapped up her interview with the Seattle Seahawks’ star cornerback Richard Sherman. Sherman made headlines in 2014 for his bizarre sideline chat with Andrews, and had stayed on the field despite an elbow injury.
.@ErinAndrews should ask Richard Sherman why he stayed on the field while he's a physical liability.

It was at this point that Katie Cassidy jumped in, complaining about Erin Andrews.
Seriously, why isn't she doing her job?? @amellywood @BrandonStrabley @ErinAndrews

At this point the Twitter exchange, Chrissy Teigen, who is a good friend of Erin Andrews, interjected her two cents worth into the mix, which served only to further incite Katie Cassidy. Are you following this yet? Erin Andrews stayed mum throughout, however. Did she really have much choice? She was, after all, covering the game from the sidelines.
@chrissyteigen no, but God should bless her

The feud gained steam with others jumping in on the ‘conversation,’ however absolutely nothing of substance was said. It is worth noting that the entire Twitter brawl became kind of personal between Katie Cassidy and Chrissy Teigen.
Cassidy’s last comment prompted John Legend’s supermodel wife to turn the tables back on her new opponent.
@MzKatieCassidy own it. I'll take you seriously when you don't simultaneously talk shit and preach the gospel.

Katie Cassidy got the last word in, however.
@chrissyteigen I'm sorry u have negativity inside u. Can't be healthy. 2 be clear, not shit talking. But interesting u took it that way.

Will the former Gossip Girl star and Chrissy Teigen simply let this go? Or is will this Twitter war go back into battle if Erin Andrews is on the sidelines when the Seattle Seahawks play the New England Patriots in the upcoming Super Bowl? Maybe someone should put a bug in Stephen Arnell’s ear, asking him to keep his thoughts about football off Twitter?
