<h2>On Tuesday, November 12, Blake Shelton, who was named Sexiest Man Alive in 2017, announced John Legend's honor on "The Voice."</h2>

<p>In many other ways, <strong>Legend</strong> is an obvious choice for the title and today's post will show you that. He has an EGOT, a role on a popular television show, 'The Voice', and has appeared on the covers of Time, GQ, and Ebony, among many others.

We have carefully put together 5 obvious reasons why he deserves to be awarded that title.</p>

<p>Of course, many other sexiest men in the past have been married but none adores their wife unapologetically in the eyes of the public as <strong>Legend</strong> does. He and his wife, <strong>Chrissy Teigen</strong>, aren’t just better together; they’re also more famous together. We find this so adorable and we can help but agree that he deserves the title.</p>

<p>If you know <strong>Legend</strong>, then you must also know his two adorable children. <strong>Luna</strong> and <strong>Miles</strong> always find their way to his social media pages and events. It's either <strong>Legend</strong> his twinning with Miles or having them both on the set of 'The Voice' with him. He mentioned in his interview, <em>"I’m so proud that I have a wife and two kids I’m so in love with and so connected to. I’m also so proud of my career"</em>. Can your father ever?</p>
