STRIKE A CHORD

Nandini Bhalla: John, you have achieved so much in your life... Do you ever feel the pressure to live upto your name—Legend?

John Legend: “My friends nicknamed me Legend in 2002... I never considered Legend as my stage name, but once I took it up, I knew there was a certain responsibility that came with the name. I enjoy the pressure; I want to live upto my name, and I strive to prove myself throughout my career.”

NB: You were voted The Sexiest Man Alive... We want to know what you find desirable in a woman...

JL: “My wife is very sexy... Chrissy is not just physically beautiful, but she makes me laugh, too. She is a great mother and cook, and I think she is incredibly smart and clever. I find all of these qualities attractive.”

NB: You just had your third baby, Esti Maxine Stephens. Is it tough balancing work and family?
