The 29-year-old model has been outspoken against the company's no nipples policy for females because she thinks that if men can go shirtless on the site, then women should be given the same rights.

Speaking to 'Entertainment Tonight', she said: "If the boys can do it, why can't I do it too?"

Chrissy recently tried to share a topless image of herself from a W magazine shoot but it was repeatedly removed by moderators yet she thinks far worse pictures are allowed to be published on social media.

She explained: "[When] I post something from W Magazine, which is what I think is beautiful, they take it down. By the way, I love Instagram so much - they emailed my agency and they were like, 'Please tell her to stop!' Their tone of the email was so sad, because I just kept posting it and posting it.

"My thing with it was that, when I'm scrolling through Twitter, I get flat out pornography sometimes. If you look up on Instagram, 'hashtag boobs,' a lot of stuff comes up!"
