Marie Claire has debuted a new Chrissy Teigen cover story that, among other things, is meant to promote her new recipe and cooking website, Cravings. That it reads something like a promotional fluff piece isn’t surprising in the realm of glossy magazine covers, which often feature celebrities with brands to promote. What was surprising, though, was a strange disclaimer at the end of the piece, which noted that the author, Alyse Whitney, had accepted a job at Cravings after singing Teigen’s praises in the profile, and writing such effusive phrases as “The queen of the Internet is going offline to build a better future for her kids—and the rest of us.”\n

still publish the story, if it knew that its credibility could be compromised by a writer accepting an offer from her subject before the story went to print?reads: “After this story was filed, Alyse Whitney joined Chrissy Teigen’s editorial team as managing editor at Cravings.” It’s currently unclear.

into question whether the cover story counts as spon. With the changing nature of celebrity in the digital age, the FTC haswhere sponsored content now exists across many ephemeral social media sites, in many ephemeral forms, despite laws it has set in place.

content a publication receives revenue for based on reader click-throughs or purchases—or branded “advertorials.”’s Chrissy Teigen profile partly reads like the latter. That is: sections of it reads like a press release for Cravings, espousing how it’s “dedicated to supporting and raising the voices of women—100 percent women, actually.” Or the “inclusivity rider” built into her brand’s partnership with Hulu.
