Hollywood couple John Legend and Chrissy Teigen said they got an unexpected surprise during this quarantine - turns out, they’ll be welcoming baby number 3! And apparently, their modern Beverly Hills mansion won’t be big enough for their growing family – so they’ve put it up on the market. I’m sure that since a 24-million-dollar mega home just doesn’t cut it for the pair, the home they’re hunting for will only be bigger. Until they find that, they can shack up in their Manhattan condo spread or their live/work space in West Hollywood, because they certainly aren’t short on real estate. John Roger Stephens, better known by his stage name John Legend, is a singer, songwriter, record producer, actor, philanthropist and MORE, who even prior to his debut album had already been signed to Kanye’s label and collaborated with established artists. He’s amassed plenty of awards over his career already, receiving an Academy Award and a Golden Globe for co writing a song in the film Selma.

Hollywood couple John Legend and Chrissy Teigen said they got an unexpected surprise during
this quarantine – turns out they'll be welcoming baby number 3.
And apparently their modern Beverly Hills mansion won't be big enough for their growing
family so they've put it up on the market.
I'm sure that since a 24 million dollar mega home just doesn't cut it for the pair,
the home they're hunting for will only be bigger.
Until they find that, they can shack up in their Manhattan condo spread or their live
workspace in West Hollywood.
Because they certainly aren't short on real estate.
John Roger Stevens, better known by his stage name John Legend, is a singer, songwriter,
record producer, actor, philanthropist and more who even prior to his debut album had
already been signed to Kanye's label and collaborated with established artists.
He's amassed plenty of awards over his career already, receiving an Academy Award and a
Golden Globe for co-writing a song in the film Selma.
Not to mention he's won 11 Grammys and is one of only 16 people to have won an Emmy,
a Grammy, Oscar and Tony Award.
In John's private life, he's also a husband and father married to Chrissy Teigen who seems
to be in the public eye even more than he is.
Although she was known for being a model, and she seems to spend a ton of her time trolling
on social media, when she's not doing that, she loves to cook.
So I do have 5 things that I think must be in your kitchen at all times.
So I'll start here.
This is a microplane.
Does anyone have one of these?
What?
No.
These are so great.
Do you shave your feet with it?
You can shave the back of your heels with it, I don't recommend it.
When the couple bought a contemporary 5 million dollar home in West Hollywood not too long
ago, many wondered why since it was close to their main home.
But turns out, they have plans to use this home as a set for Chrissy's upcoming cooking
show.
Apparently John and Chrissy each have an estimated net worth of around 75 million, so I don't
think they need to worry about how many properties they buy.
Hey guys, it's Kara and today we're doing another house tour here on Famous Entertainment.
We're gonna take a look at where John Legend and his wife Chrissy call home, and although
we looked at Chrissy's properties earlier this year, it was in need of an update.
They've put their main modern mansion up for sale in hopes of finding something bigger.
And from the listing, we can see how they transformed the place.

We've also done house tours on famous couples like JLo and A-Rod, as well as Russell Wilson
and Ciara, and we'll link to some at the end.
Follow me on Instagram to chat, and as usual, let me know who's house tour is next in
those comments down below.
Now let's get into this video.
So recently TMZ and other news sources reported that John and Chrissy are letting go of their
main home, a modern, boxy mansion high in the hills.
Since last reporting on their living situation, it seems the couple also did a mega revamp
of the property, and it looks a lot warmer since they moved in nearly 5 years ago.
The last time I saw photos of this place it looked like your usual, slightly cold, contemporary
mega mansion, and now it actually looks like a home, mind you, a very luxe one.
While John and Chrissy look for an even larger family home in Los Angeles for the arrival
of their 3rd child, this mansion sits on the market for you know, only 23.95 million dollars.
This A-list mansion in the Beverly Hills post office neighbourhood was also once owned by
Rihanna, and the power couple was surrounded by celebs like Jessica Alba, Jack Nicholson
and more.
The modern home spans 8,520 square feet inside with 7 beds and 8 baths, and is completely
walled and gated for privacy.
It sits high in the mountains above Beverly Hills, which makes for some killer views,
and John and Chrissy paid 14.1 million for it at the time of purchase, according to records.
The listing talks about the makeover John and Chrissy gave their residence while living
in it, and also cheekily notes the designer chef's kitchen befits a culinary influencer
and cookbook author, aka Chrissy.
Speaking of the chef's kitchen, this one has a massive eat in island and world class
array of custom appliances, probably most of which were added for Chrissy's comfort.
The open concept floor plan allows the kitchen to easily connect to the family room, where
you'll find a double sided fireplace separating the casual space from the more formal living
room, with double height ceilings and soaring windows.
There's also a piano corner decked out with all of John's Grammys and awards, where
I'm sure he makes some beautiful music.
Where there were once washed out white walls and basic finishes, the home now has lavish
customs like a patterned ceiling from Thailand, redone oak floors, and steel rolled walls,
thanks to the couple's home makeover.
And the listing claims that those walls exude sensuality.
Interesting.
A sculptural winding staircase leads to the upper level, where there's the couple's
warehouse sized master suite with brass and concrete fireplace.
Maybe even more impressive here is the his and hers showroom closets, with Chrissy's
being large enough to make any woman envious.
Elsewhere in the mansion you'll find a large home gym, home movie theatre with soundproof
walls, a lavish formal dining room, playroom and more.
Out back there's a dark bottom plunge pool with plenty of space around to lounge in the
Not to mention a covered dining terrace with built in barbeque.
I mean I think that place is big enough for a family with 3 children, but for John and
Chrissy they can have whatever they want.
Even if that means a bigger and better mega mansion, we'll just have to wait and see
what they find.
I showed you guys this next spot on my last Chrissy Teigen house tour but now it's confirmed
they're planning to use the home for a live and work space.
I guess if the couple doesn't find a bigger mansion in time for the new baby they can
settle and camp out here.
Ok I'm making this place sound like some average home but really it's another mega
house close to the one we just looked at in West Hollywood.
Earlier this year John and Chrissy bought a 5.1 million dollar contemporary home in
the trendy neighbourhood that is West Hollywood, close to the Sunset Strip and the infamous
Chateau Marmont.
The home was just finished at the start of the year and built in an organic modern style.
It spans 3500 square feet inside with 2000 square feet of outdoor space and 4 beds and
4 baths.
It offers a combination of modern architecture and a natural feel, and it's full of light
space and comfort.
One of the features here is undoubtedly the kitchen which is full of imported materials
and high end appliances.
Not to mention a massive 20 foot island ideal for food prep and casual dining.
Now that we know the home is going to be used for Mrs Teigen's upcoming cooking show,
it all makes sense.
How perfect is that kitchen for her?
The airy home has a ton of wood and glass, even offering a floating wooden staircase.
The West Hollywood property also comes with a luxe master suite with custom walk in closet,
private office and floating gardens upstairs with a built in drip system.
Outside, aside from the expansive decks and terraces all over, there's also a pool and
spa.
Finally, John and Chrissy continued to own a lavish condo spread in New York City.
Before they were parents, they already owned one penthouse in the Big Apple which they
showed Architectural Digest back in 2015.
This apartment just kind of embodies everything that I love.
Obviously I love dark and rustic, but still very clean and very chic.
It just feels like our place in LA as well, but in New York.
But they sold that one and upgraded.
At the start of the pandemic, we caught word that the couple bought their most recent New
York property, which happens to be right next door to the one they already own.
In 2018, they purchased a place in the same building they used to have real estate – the
Brewster Carriage House.
They paid just over 9 million for a corner unit penthouse, spending 2600 square feet
with 3 beds and 3 baths.
It offers 13-foot ceilings, exposed brick and wooden accent walls.
The open plan living and dining area contains a gas fireplace and oversized windows, as
well as a spacious kitchen.
Some other features here include a motorized 133-inch projection screen, backlit wine closet,
and even a private rooftop garden accessed by copper staircase.
The bedrooms are divided into two wings at opposite ends of the apartment, and the master
suite offers a walk-through closet and 5 fixture bathroom with rainwater shower, soaking tub,
and more.
And John and Chrissy's add-on property, the next-door unit acquired earlier this year
is even bigger.
This spot cost them just under 8 million, and it spans 3500 square feet with 2 beds,
2 full baths, and 2 half baths.
Features here include 12-foot ceilings, some more exposed brick walls, iron columns, and
automated window shades.
There's a custom iron staircase connecting two floors of the penthouse, as well as the
1500 square foot rooftop deck.
Another combination living and dining area graces this unit, which stretches almost 50
feet, and there's an open plan kitchen with giant walk-in pantry.
Aside from the large guest suite, the couple can enjoy another lavish master bedroom with
a small attached office, and 600 square foot media lounge.
Whichever unit the family spends more time in, it's a great real estate investment
to say the least.
Since the units are next door, I'd also assume John and Chrissy could carry out a
mega renovation and merge the two penthouses together.
So now we've got our update on John Legend and Chrissy Teigen's living situation, and
now all they have to do is sell their nearly 24 million dollar LA mansion and buy something
even bigger.
We saw how they've updated the contemporary estate since moving in 5 years back, and it
looks even better than before.
We also looked at the West Hollywood home they're planning to use as a live in workspace,
aka set for Chrissy's upcoming cooking show, and their luxury condo spread in Manhattan.
After seeing John and Chrissy's properties, which is your fave?
I'm more of a Los Angeles girl, so I'd have to say their two houses there.
And Chrissy's closet in the mansion they're selling would be enough for me to choose this
spot.
Like did you see that closet?
