They didn’t hold back.
Piers Morgan made insensitive remarks following the death of iconic sportsman’ Muhammad Ali death on June 3 and understandably, people were angry.
Muhammad Ali said far more inflammatory/racist things about white people than Donald Trump ever has about Muslims. #fact

I hope people don't make me sound too perfect when I die.
No coats of sugar please.— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) June 5, 2016
Why sugar-coat what Ali said or stood for? He never did that to himself, or when speaking of others.

Chrissy Teigen and John Legend decided he shouldn’t be let away with it and basically trolled him on Twitter.
Here’s how that went down…
.@piersmorgan you could test us by announcing your retirement.

@johnlegend from what? trolling isn't a job (I've tried)
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) June 5, 2016
Of course, Piers, editor at large of the Daily Mail US, tried to retaliate but they really weren’t having any of him.
Maybe I should take up a proper job, like modelling? > RT @chrissyteigen: @johnlegend from what? trolling isn't a job (I've tried)

@piersmorgan it keeps me nice and not-racist so sure, give it a go.
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) June 6, 2016
@piersmorgan remember when Bruce Willis didn't know he was dead? It's like that.

It kept going:
You may want to read my new column about Ali & racism, @johnlegend @chrissyteigen -you may learn something.
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) June 6, 2016
@johnlegend @piersmorgan sorry can't read, just a modell doing modelling

I have to hand it to Chrissy though…
troll recognize troll.

Hi Chrissy. No I'm not, you ludicrous swimwear accessory. https://t.co/3gfelyEyzC

My 4 kids all just looked at me and said: 'Daddy, who's Chrissy Teigen?' https://t.co/vCCEDh6lzq

I have a feeling this spat is set to run and run…
