Celebrities are weighing in on the United Airlines legging mess

Everyone from Chrissy Teigen to William Shatner has something to say

When two young girls were barred from boarding a United Airlines flight because they were wearing leggings (an apparent dress code violation on the airline), the internet went nuts.

Activist Shannon Watts first tweeted about the situation on Sunday morning, and since then, everyone from Chrissy Teigen to William Shatner weighed in on leggings-gate with hilarious and insightful remarks.

Despite all this star power on Twitter, the airline hasn't backed down regarding its dress code policy.
