Chrissy Teigen fulfils her dream of ‘boning Sexiest Man Alive’ as John Legend honoured with People title

John Legend has been named People’s Sexiest Man Alive – which means Chrissy Teigen has landed the title of wife of People’s Sexiest Man Alive.

And she is chuffed.

All of Me singer John has taken over the title from Idris Elba, as the magazine made its annual announcement of who has been giving them butterflies this year.

John is also one of just 15 people to achieve EGOT (having an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony) status, but we reckon this could kick that title to the kerb.

The 40-year-old said: ‘I was excited, but I was a little scared at the same time because it’s a lot of pressure.

‘Everyone’s going to be picking me apart to see if I’m sexy enough to hold this title. I’m [also] following Idris Elba, which is not fair and is not nice to me!’

John – who is dad to three-year-old Luna and one-year-old Miles – said he was rather ‘perplexed’ by the honour, jokingly tweeting a picture of himself from 1995 next to Idris Elba and writing: ‘1995 John would be very perplexed to be following 2018 @IdrisElba as #SexiestManAlive. Hell, 2019 John is about as equally perplexed but thank you @People for finding me sexy. I’ll take it ?.’

But his wife of six years Chrissy isn’t as surprised her husband has won the title, and is also revelling in being married to the Sexiest Man Live.

The 33-year-old tweeted: ‘my secret is out. I have fulfilled my dream of having boned @people’s sexiest man alive!! an honor!!!!! [sic].’

Chrissy then addressed the inevitable backlash against every man that’s ever been honoured by People, saying: ‘I cannot WAIT for people to get mad about John being the sexiest man alive. it’s my new Starbucks holiday cup.’

The model has updated her bio to read ‘currently sleeping with people’s sexiest man alive’, while she informed her 11.9 million followers that ‘the sexiest man alive just made me a ham sandwich’.

However, Miles and Luna aren’t that impressed by their dad’s new title, with Chrissy filming Miles screaming and her daughter moaning about watching a movie.

Sorry, John.

Legend is the third The Voice mentor to be called People’s Sexiest Man Live following Adam Levine (2013) and Blake Shelton (2017).

The tradition began way back in 1985 when People named then 29-year-old Mel Gibson as their sexiest man alive.

Since then, Johnny Depp, George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Richard Gere have won the title twice, while Channing Tatum, Chris Hemsworth, David Beckham and Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson are among the recent winners.
