John Legend is wrong about everything but this

Published January 9, 2019 11:07pm ET



While I enjoy John Legend’s music and artistic talents, and I think his wife, Chrissy Teigen, is gorgeous and hilarious, I don’t agree with them about politics — most conservatives don’t. Separately and as a couple, they have vehemently disagreed with President Trump and conservatism in general.

However, that aside, Legend is taking some heat for taking a stand against R. Kelly’s abusive behavior. Critics say he is a hypocrite because he used to be friendly with Harvey Weinstein. On this, John Legend is courageous to take a stand against one of “his own,” so to speak, and I don’t think he’s being inconsistent at all.
