Chrissy Teigen joins household on the Olympics Opening Ceremony in Paris
Chrissy Teigen ensured all eyes would be on as she led the celebrity arrivals ahead of the Paris 2024 Olympics Opening Ceremony.
The model, 38, showed off her incredible figure in a khaki Balmain co-ord as she strutted down the red carpet at the Trocadero on Friday alongside husband John Legend and their eldest children Luna, eight, and Miles, six.
Chrissy flashed her toned stomach in a longline cardigan that she wore with half the buttons undone.
She teamed the garment with tiny hotpants that showcased her enviably toned legs, donning barely-there black heels to boost her frame further.
The mother-of-four completed the look with gold jewellery and a patent black clutch bag.

During the Opening Ceremony the iconic French singer Celine Dion will perform and is reported to be duetting with Lady Gaga for a performance of La Vie En Rose.
Gaga was pictured putting together the final touches to her show ahead of the live performance.
Ahead of the ceremony, Snoop Dogg was tasked with carrying the Olympic torch through Paris.
During the parade there will be over 3,000 performers in the ceremony with the delegations and passengers on the boasts.
The pre-ceremony press conference was cancelled due to directors being pulled away for last-minute preparations, with concern rife over the volume of rain in the city.
The parade will finish in front of the Trocadero where the remaining performances and elements of the Olympic protocol will take place.
Although the floating parade was originally planned as a people’s party along the banks, the French police have intervened and for security reasons most spectators will be assigned to an area or allocated seats in fenced-off areas for the ceremony.

Each country will debut their athletes with one of their most prolific names holding their national or regional flags at the beginning of the ceremony.
Greece traditionally debut first as a nod to where the Olympics first originated, with the host country being last to feature.
The Olympic anthem will then ring out after the head of state of the host country announces the commencement of the Games.
The iconic Olympic flame will then be brought forward for the lighting of the main torch which is the culmination of the opening ceremony as well as the release of doves, symbolising peace amongst all countries.
More rain is scheduled for later on today in Paris, but organisers will hope that it holds off until after the ceremony has concluded.
Fears are, meanwhile, mounting that Moscow may be behind a ‘massive arson attack’ which has brought chaos to France’s rail network after an alleged Russian spy was arrested earlier this week.
Kirill Gryaznov, 40, was arrested on Wednesday and charged with working ‘with a foreign power to try and incite hostilities in France’ after being identified as working for the FSB, Vladimir Putin’s domestic intelligence agency.
Gryaznov – who denies any wrongdoing – is said to have boasted about turning the start of the Paris Olympics into ‘an opening ceremony like no other’.

On Thursday night, with just hours to go before the procession on the River Seine, fires were started at key installations, bringing trains to a halt and affecting around 800,000 passengers.
The Eurostar is advising passengers not to travel today after its rail services between London and Paris were disrupted by the acts of vandalism, the
has reported, with several trains cancelled and others diverted.
An airport located at the Swiss-French border has also been evacuated and closed due to a bomb alert, the French police said.
