If you weren’t already convinced that Chrissy Teigen and John Legend are in fact Hollywood’s cutest couple, then their heartfelt and tearful tributes to one another on stage at Glamour’s 2018 Women of the Year Awards should have only served to further cement that status.
Taking to the stage to honour his wife as one of the Women of the Year, the Grammy Award-winning singer began by introducing himself as Teigen’s trophy husband, before adding that while he has a successful career in music, it is Teigen who is the star of the family—as well as the heart and soul.
While professing his love for his wife, Legend recognised that he isn’t the only one who loves her. “Everywhere I go, I meet people, fans, who used to ask me for an autograph or tell me how much they love my music,” he said. “Now the number one comment I get from people who used to be my fans is how much they love Chrissy. She gets bigger cheers than I do at my own concerts.”
Citing her heart, honesty, humour, beauty, style and passion for food as a few of the many reasons why she is so adored, the singer touched on her ability to inspire. After recognising the many pitfalls of social media, he acknowledged that without it, “I think the world may have missed out on Chrissy’s full awesomeness.”
“She would have never fully shone the way she does if she were filtered by publicists and handlers,” he explained. “Chrissy’s biggest impact may be the way she proves that just by being the person you are, you can make a difference.”
“She’s been named the mayor of the Internet by some,” he continued. “She’s been blocked by the shittiest person on the Internet. I don’t have to say his name. If you speak up about the things that you believe in, whether it’s immigration rights, postpartum depression, or the joys of chicken pot pie—and if you do it authentically and without presumption, you can enlighten another human being, you can brighten people’s day. What a gift that is. And what a time to do it, right now, when it’s so important to amplify voices of reason, not shut them down.”
Tearing up as he welcomed Teigen to the stage to accept the award, the pair embraced after Legend confessed he is amazed by the woman she’s become. If you remain unconvinced of their couple goal status, fear not—there’s more.
After comically snatching the award out of her husband’s hand, Teigen explained that while she “was ready to be the light-hearted one” she was taken aback by Legend’s tearful speech, as he hadn’t even cried when she’d given birth. Quickly correcting herself, she clarified that he had in fact cried when their son Miles was born, as well as while watching both Benjamin Button and Sesame Street.
Chocking up, Teigen then confessed that while she jokes about it a lot, she “truly has the most incredible husband on the planet.”
“You are our everything,” she continued, before thanking her husband for his constant support. “You completely made me a woman. We’ve grown together. Our family’s grown together. Our careers have grown together. This is so sappy, I’m sorry, I hate it. I didn’t cry during our wedding. I hate you John,” she joked. “I really do.”
