John Legend is celebrating his 46th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.
Popular singer-songwriter-actor John Legend (Green Light, Ordinary People, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 46th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Legend, a cultural icon
Born John Roger Stephens in Springfield on December 28, 1978, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Legend's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little John hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for John Legend as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 46.
Happy Birthday, John, you're the best!
