Chrissy Teigen Doesn’t Know John Legend As Well As She Thought

Posted byBy Tia Berger | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

Chrissy Teigen dropped by “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” only to bomb the “You Don’t Know Jack About John” quiz about her husband’s career.

The model and wife of singer John Legend was tested by talk show host Ellen DeGeneres and her lack of knowledge about her hubby’s career proved she didn’t know much about his work. Teigen was asked a series of questions about Legend’s awards, career highlights, and more.

“What album did John win his first Grammy for and what year was it?”, DeGeneres asked.

Teigen chuckled and said, “There’s really no choices… His first Grammy was not Ordinary people?” As DeGeneres shook her head no, the wife of the “All of Me” artist exclaimed “Oh crap.”

She bombed a few more questions such as her husband’s fictional character’s band in the Oscar-winning movie “La La Land” and songs Legend did with Alicia Keys for an episode of “Carpool Karaoke.”

“This is a big fight we always have though,” Teigen relayed. “He doesn’t tell me about things he’s producing. Like we went to “Sundance”, and he was like, ‘Oh, we’re showing my movie.’ And I was like, ‘Your movie? What are you talking about?'”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
