John Legendwas quick to answer when asked to nameChrissy Teigen’s “hottest” attribute.
The formerPEOPLE Sexiest Man Aliveopened up about his marriage in a new interview on theCall Her Daddypodcast, revealing to host Alex Cooper that his wife’s sense of humor is what he finds the most attractive about her.
“It’s probably obvious, but she makes me laugh all the time,” Legend, 44, shared. “It just changes your whole world when you have somebody around you that makes you laugh. It makes every experience — even when you go through the worst things, when they have a sense of humor, it just makes life better.”
Legend then went on to explain that, if Teigen, 37, were asked the same question, he doesn’t know exactly what her answer would be.
“I take good care of her. I like to cook for her, even though she’s obviously the one with food credentials that I don’t have,” Legend said. “But I like to cook for her, I like to take care of her, pamper her, and make some romantic gestures. She probably likes that.”
Later in the interview, the “Green Light” singergave some sex advicefor keeping a relationship “hot,” outside of his first instinctual answer: “Lock the door if you have kids.”
“Our kids have a way of finding their way into our room. So if we ever want to have a good time, we gotta go lock the door,” Legend said, adding that his mother-in-law Vilailuck Teigen — who also lives with the couple — is “not the issue.”
“You have to find time,” he said. “You have to still do those romantic gestures and make an effort, I think. That’s all important. You can’t take things for granted, especially if you’ve been together for a long time. If you allow yourself to just get in a rut, you gotta go on a date, just do some things. Do some fun things. Make some romantic gestures.”

Elsewhere in the conversation, Cooper asked Legend about how he felt when his wife suffered apregnancy loss with son Jack in September 2020. At the time, Teigen announced that she lost her son Jack in the middle of her pregnancy, as became pregnant with him naturally, while she and Legend conceived their other two children — daughterLuna Simone, 6, and sonMiles Theodore, 4 — with the help of IVF treatments.
“You want to be there to protect, you want to be there to help, but you literally can’t do anything to really solve the core problem here. It was just heartbreaking and we felt powerless and it was deep, deep grief, deep challenge, deep pain.”
On the lighter side of the podcast, Legend was asked about a potential future biopic about himself and Teigen, and who he’d see starring as his wife. His response:Olivia Rodrigo. But as for himself, he suggested that one of the babies that fans say look like him should take the role.
