John Legend is chasing another Tony Award, and his wife Chrissy Teigen had plenty to say about it.
On Tuesday, John was nominated for a Tony Award for Best Original Score for SpongeBob SquarePants. On the nominations list, the Tonys listed “various contributors” without specifically naming who was behind the original score.
Chrissy definitely had fun with the “various contributors” bit and took to Twitter to share her shock that her hubby had gotten another Tony nomination.
“John got nominated for a Tony this morning for a song he apparently wrote for spongebob squarepants. Why does he not tell me when he writes spongebob songs?? What else is he lying about?? Are there other songs out there,” Chrissy hilariously tweeted.

And it looks like everyone was in on the joke! The SpongeBob Musical replied to Chrissy’s tweet.
“He never told you about us?!?!?!? Wow, John… we’re kinda hurt. But also, CONGRATS!!!!!”

This is John’s second Tony nomination. He was previously nominated for a 2017 Tony Award for Best Revival of a Play for Jitney. He won the Tony Award for that project!
