Chrissy Teigen Threw John Legend an Epic Bond-Themed 40th Birthday
Nobody does PDA quite like John Legend and Chrissy Teigen, so it’s not exactly surprising that when it was time to celebrate John’s 40th birthday this weekend, Chrissy did it up big—and we mean big. She threw him a massive, ultra-glam, Bond-themed bash, complete with sparkly gold dresses, tuxedos, and a joint appearance from the couple’s friends, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West.
Technically, Legend turned the big 4-0 a few weeks ago—his actual birthday is December 28—but the couple and their kids headed to Bora Bora for some January sun, so it made sense to wait a little bit to have a proper celebration. As Teigen captioned a cheeky birthday tribute to John on the ‘gram: “Happy 40th birthday to the most incredible man. The best father, hardest worker, best lover, best friend I could ever imagine. Every day I am grateful for how much you love us and how much you both say it and show it. You are one of a kind. I am grateful to your family for creating and raising such a pure, sweet, brilliant man. The world has been blessed by your 40 years on this planet. I love you. I showed you that this morning BOOYAHHHH”
The celebration Chrissy threw last night for her hubs definitely qualifies as an extravaganza—and we got a glimpse of it all courtesy of the couple’s friend and party guest Kim Kardashian. She posted a photo to her Instagram Stories of a glittery number 40 at the entrance of what seems like an ultra-decadent event. Another image surfaced that shows she and Kanye posing with the birthday boy and the hostess in a gorgeous set that has 007 written all over it.
Earlier, Chrissy had posted a selfie of herself getting ready for the party in a sparkling gold dress on her Instagram stories—and we also got a behind-the-scenes look at how the couple’s little ones got ready for the big event, too (of course they weren’t going to miss out on this). Teigen took to Twitter and Instagram to ask people to vote on which teeny-tiny baby tuxedo her son, Miles, would wear. “okay guys. throwing john’s 40th birthday party tonight but need your help dressing mini-john. Which one!” she wrote. You can see the adorable options below:

Spoiler alert: The white tux won out. Chrissy also dressed daughter Luna up in a white ballerina dress and shared a clip of the 3-year-old delightedly twirling around in it.
The whole party looks like it was executed masterfully—but that’s how Chrissy rolls. Touching (and hilarious) tributes to John are kind of her thing, after all. The only thing is that now John is going to have to plan her something just as epic, but luckily for him, he has about eight and a half more months to figure that out.
