Chrissy Teigen is known for her charming awkwardness but her latest moment might take the cake. It turns out that Teigen behaved just like all of us would when she saw Beyoncé at the Grammy Awards last weekend.

While on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Teigen shared a cringeworthy moment from when she said goodbye to Bey. 

Teigen and her husband, John Legend, were seated next Beyoncé, Blue Ivy, and Jay Z during music's biggest night. But when Teigen, who is five-months pregnant, and John decided to leave early ("since sober Grammys is a different type of Grammys"), she thought it'd be rude not to say bye to the superstars.

"There's nobody like seeing Beyoncé in person, it's just so incredible," said Teigen. "The aura that comes around her. She just emits this aura that's spectacular."

But what she did next was not so spectacular. She took both of Beyoncé's hands (which she doesn't do "for anybody") and got down on her knees. "I was like 'Sorry to bother you my Queen,'" Teigen recalled. We told you it was cringy.

"Like who says that?" cried Teigen on the late-night talk show. "Who am I?"

Teigen wasn't the only one caught being in awe of Beyoncé last weekend though. An elderly woman stood mouth agape when she unintentionally photobombed Beyoncé and Jay Z who strolled passed her. The moment was uploaded to Beyoncé's Instagram and later spun into a viral meme.
