- [Chrissy] Oh. [laughs]
- Hello, AD.
- Hello, AD. [laughs]
- I'm John Legend.
- I'm Chrissy Teigen.
- Welcome to our home. - Welcome.
[upbeat music]
- [John] Our designer's name is Jake Arnold.
- [Chrissy] We love him.
- Sometimes people who are really creative
and good at the creative stuff,
aren't good at the business side of things,
but I feel like Jake is the...
[Chrissy laughing]
Hi Pearl.
- [laughs] Sorry. Hi Pearl.
Hi, my love.
This is my baby, Pearl.
- She likes to cuddle with momma on the couch.
- She's insane, but she loves to cuddle.
This is my Instagram Story room.
Everyone's always like, "You never leave this couch."
- We live here.
This is the living room, you know,
and some people, their living room is more like a showpiece
and they spend all the time in the den or the family room,
but we are actually in the living room quite a lot.
We sit here and watch reality TV.
We cook right there in the kitchen,
and since the kitchen and the living room are so close,
I think that's why we spend so much time here
'cause we're always cooking.
She likes to be in the same space as our guests,
same space as the family, cook.
- Which is why we have three
or four different versions of these cushions, because yeah,
basically, my butt leaves a mark for long enough
and the dogs don't help and the babies spit up-
- Yes. - and the kids jumping
back and forth.
I will say, this is a very kid-proof house.
People are always scared to bring their kids over.
They're like, "No, they're gonna jump on everything."
I'm like, "Look at this, it's chaos."
Hey!
- [John] Our living room is very lived-in.
- [Chrissy] We actually use some outdoor fabrics-
- [John] Yes. - for our indoor couches.
- Some of our fabrics are outdoor because they're tougher
and they can take more crap that our kids put on it.
- And piss, dog piss.
- Yes, that too.
- There's a lot of dog piss here.
[John laughing]
- So, our TV cabinet is pretty cool.
It stays open most of the time
'cause we're usually watching TV-
- Yeah. It's never closed. - in this room,
but the TV comes out, watch this,
- Look at that. - and then you can swivel it
to face the living room more
or face the kitchen more.
So, if Chrissy wants to watch "Real Housewives"
and make dinner, then we can turn it toward the kitchen.
- [Chrissy] You mean, watch the New York Times.
- Watch? [Chrissy laughing]
You mean watch Reader's Digest?
[upbeat music]
We're in the kitchen.
- We are in the heartbeat of our home.
Obviously, we spend so much time in here.
We can watch TV from here.
This is a fully functional working kitchen.
- Yes. - I think,
when we go to other people's homes,
we're like, oh my God,
you can tell when they don't use it
or you stay at an Airbnb or something,
you're like, "Oh these people don't use their kitchen."
- Yes. - We really use
the shit out of this kitchen.
Honestly, we have all four ovens going quite often.
- Yeah. So, we actually have two down here,
two over there and then we have a microwave over there
and an espresso machine.
We are literally using all of these things all the time.
We're doing big meals, having friends over.
- [Chrissy] Yeah.
- We have Thanksgiving here, Christmas here.
We do everything.
We always wanted to have a home
where it would be like an open door
for our friends and family.
- What we love about it too is it's not really precious.
This can take such a beating.
I mean, we normally have a cutting board on here
that everyone sees my kids on top of.
All these burners going.
I will say, it has a very sensitive fire alarm.
[Chrissy laughs] - Oh yeah.
Our smoke alarm is sensitive. - For anything.
- So we had to make sure-
- Keeps us safe though. - this hood,
it was good because it's trying to keep us safe.
I understand, but I wish it would try a little less.
- It's going too hard. - Try a little less.
- Have some faith in us that we would wake up.
[John laughing]
[upbeat music]
- So, we're in the piano bar.
This is the room where sometimes I'll write music,
sometimes Luna will take piano lessons.
The chandelier was designed by Alison Berger.
It has my lyrics from my first couple of albums
etched in those wine glasses up there,
and then we have a record player
that's in this beautiful gold cabinet.
There's also actually a TV in there,
a LG roll up TV. [chuckles]
- We're a TV household, we have a TV in every room.
- We have TVs everywhere,
and then of course we have some of our awards up here.
Chrissy's Glamour Woman of the Year,
my Grammy, Emmy,
Oscar, Tony things,
Chrissy's Mac and Cheese award.
- This is, to me, this is... - Yeah.
That was what we did during our first holiday special
we did together. - Yes.
Oh, I also got a Glammy award
for the best chair sitter from my glam squad,
because I never move.
I'm just really good at getting my hair and makeup done.
[John laughing]
[ambient piano music]
- It's new.
I just made it up for this.
- [Chrissy] Oh my God.
[light upbeat music]
- We sometimes stay at Kelly Wearstler's house.
She's a great designer.
She has a Malibu house
and it has a tree right in the living room-kitchen area,
and we are like, "We want a tree inside our house too."
So, this tree actually is an olive tree
that used to be alive for real
but it's not alive now,
and so, we literally dug six feet deep,
put the roots down,
- We did. - put this tree here,
not ourselves. - Yeah, we did it.
- And it has silk leaves that don't fall down.
They're attached to the tree,
and it still looks and feels real but it's not alive.
[Chrissy laughing]
It was formerly alive.
- We embalmed it.
- [John] We embalmed it basically.
- [Chrissy] Around it, we have this beautiful...
- This a custom designed,
- [Chrissy] Yeah. - kind of gold ring
around the tree.
- It's our Christmas tree during Christmas times.
We put the presents underneath it here.
The kids will cut out little shapes
and we'll hang it from the leaves
and we'll put twinkling lights in it around the holidays,
and it's just such a centerpiece obviously.
It just makes us feel more connected to the earth
and just to have it kind of flow
from inside to outside is beautiful.
[upbeat music]
- So now we're in the dining room,
which, not really a room,
it's just all part of the great room,
but this is where we would have formal dining
but we almost never have formal dining.
- Never. Actually, my girl scouts sit here.
- The Girl scouts sit here.
Chrissy's a girl scout troop leader, believe it or not.
Yes, she is and she's so good at it.
She's always coming up with cool ideas for the girl scouts
and crafts. - I think
aside from Thanksgiving,
the only thing I've done here
is have my girl scouts gathered around it-
- Yes. - and making dirt cups.
- Yeah, but this table is just beautiful.
It's the heaviest table you could possibly imagine.
It takes an army to move it-
- A crane. - so we're never gonna move it
after this. - No.
- It's just gonna stay here forever.
This used to actually be a full wall with a fireplace
and we didn't like it.
The fireplace felt like a little too fake and cheesy.
We decided to make it two pillars instead
and we put this beautiful, based on Chrissy's idea,
put this beautiful art installation.
- I did ketamine and I basically was like,
therapeutic Ketamine,
- Yes. - like a therapy.
- Doctor supervised.
- Doctor supervised,
and I came home and I was like, "Wouldn't it be so amazing
if we had two beautiful butterfly wings
that we're holding our house up?"
So, this is Jake's interpretation of-
- Yeah - the butterfly wings.
- They're kind of like butterflies, flowers,
but each wing slash pedal was installed one by one and...
- Hand-painted each one,
like if you touch them, they move a little bit.
I mean, they're so delicate and somehow,
they haven't been hurt yet at all.
- I think 'cause our kids can't really reach 'em that well.
- Yeah, not yet.
- Not yet.
[upbeat music]
This is Luna's bedroom, guys,
and how cool is this bedroom?
We just kind of gave Jake some vague notes
about how we wanted the kids' rooms to look
and when he came back with drawings
of what they were actually gonna look like,
I was like, this is beyond anyone's wildest dreams
of what their bedroom should look like.
She has a slide that she goes both up and down.
- Yes, mostly up these days.
- Yeah.
- A little kitchen with her Easy Bake oven,
a little swinging couch.
She has a little beautiful nook up here
that her and Miles will have little sleepovers in.
That's the bed where many Ann Amelia Bedelia book are read.
- Yeah, we read a lot of stories over there.
- And then we put up all those little, you know,
those stars stickers,
the glow in the dark stickers and stuff together.
- One, two, three.
[people laughing]
[light upbeat music]
Say, "Hey guys, this is my room."
- Hey guys, this is my room.
- Miles loves cars if you can't tell.
The centerpiece is of course the Jeep bunk bed,
and then Miles has a cave over here where you can read,
and then it has just a whole play area up here too.
- There's a little climbing wall in the corner
where he can climb up that way to get up
on this second little story of his nook and his cave,
good storage for all of his dinosaurs,
so many dinosaurs.
- [John] And giraffes.
- They love looking down from the net that's up here,
and then you can see the kids when they come up on top here.
- Jake did a good job.
- Jake did a good job, he said. [laughs]
- I think the headline of this story
is "Jake did a good job".
[people laughing]
- [Chrissy] Miles, that was so sweet.
[upbeat music]
- Okay, so we're in the theater now
and we actually don't watch a lot in here but the kids do.
They watch Scooby Doo in here,
and then sometimes, we'll have a movie night in here.
- 'Cause we like to jumpy.
- Yeah, it's really easy place to jump
and not get hurt and Miles loves it.
Look at him.
- What I love about this room is it's blush,
it's feminine, it's beautiful.
- And it's stylish too.
- [Chrissy] It's stylish, it's cool.
We like to be in here.
It's just a beautiful, beautiful room.
- We normally have a nacho machine here.
Can you show them the cheese?
- I do have the cheese actually.
- We have cheese.
We have-
- We have bags of cheese, - manufactured cheese.
- so much manufactured cheese for it.
So, if you...
- A hundred percent organic.
- You stick the tube in the cheese bag,
pop it in the warmer, hit the button,
the cheese comes out.
I even bought, actually,
sour belts, Swedish fish.
Everything's underneath here.
Even though we have all this,
our kids are really good about not wanting it.
- Not overindulging, like they don't come
and ask us for candy all the time.
They're good about it.
- They're really good about it.
- and they eat their normal meal miles.
Miles still doesn't eat vegetables but we're working on it.
- One day, buddy.
- One day, one day. - One day.
[light upbeat music]
- So, now we're in the family room
and this room is where,
if we're gonna have a big group over
to watch anything that we wanna watch,
whether it's the big game, the big reality show finale.
- I mean, just last night,
we had about 40 people crammed in here on the couch,
on the floor, pizza all over the table.
It makes me so happy
to see everybody gathered around one space.
- We wanted this space just to be cozy.
You see this massive couch, it just looks welcoming,
and so we just get in here,
it's really casual, everything's low to the ground,
and we just hang out in here
and watch what we're gonna watch.
- I will say this couch was cream just a couple months ago,
which we loved
but I thought it was a little too clean-looking.
- Yeah. - We wanted to bring
a little funk into the house and a little pattern action-
- [John] Character. - and character and fun,
and anything is coming outta this.
I mean, we've spilled red wine,
we have spilled everything on it.
- It's a very durable fabric. - It is very durable.
- And we love the pillows, oh my god.
These pillows are so gorgeous.
This print, Jake picked this out
and showed it to us and we were like,
"Yes, that's the one."
How much Bravo is watched in here?
- I'm not kidding.
I'm not joking.
So, if I wake up at nine,
I guess nine to when I go to bed, 10.
We just, it's always playing in the background.
It's part of the tapestry of the home,
like the fabric of the home.
- Yeah. - It's part of our background.
- Yeah. - It's always happening.
- Yeah, the kids see it and they hear it
and they know that...
- Mommy's watching her Bravo. - Mommy's watching her Bravo
and you shouldn't fight like this.
[John laughing]
- You say, "This fighting isn't good."
- Yes, don't be like that. - It's a teaching tool.
[upbeat music]
- This is the most magical powder room I could imagine.
- It's so beautiful. - It's so beautiful.
It's all the same stone all throughout,
so the sink, the walls,
everything is just all this beautiful stone.
These sconces are vintage and it's a vibe in here.
Don't you want to move into this powder room?
- There's no better place to take a shit.
- Mm-hmm. - Just really isn't.
- Yeah. - You know?
- This is where the magic happens.
- Yeah.
[light upbeat music]
- Okay, now we're in the backyard.
We've got a pool, we've got Miles,
we've got AstroTurf, we got a water slide over there,
a little play structure for the kids.
- AstroTurf? No one says AstroTurf.
- People that watch,
people that go out watching football,
that was what they called it. - Okay, I guess.
- We have turf.
It gets really, really hot back here when the sun is up.
I don't even know the upkeep it would take to take grass
plus we have so many animals so it would just be a lot,
and we discovered that it's much easier to maintain.
- Turf.
We have a little garden back here.
We have a barbecue over there,
so if we are having a party,
obviously the party flows in and out,
so it's in the living room but it's out here too.
When we have big game parties, Super Bowl parties,
the water slide is fun.
It's a hit with the kids.
[upbeat music]
So, this is where we sleep.
This is where... - John on the couch.
[people laughing]
- If I'm in trouble, this is where I sleep. [laughs]
- Oh, please.
- It's such a joke amongst married people,
but we have never done it. - That's like a sitcom trope.
- If anything, I used to book a room at The Bowery.
- Hey. [Chrissy laughing]
- In New York? Yes.
- Yeah. - I'm booking a room
at The Bowery. - I'm outta here.
I don't do the couch.
Are you kidding? [john laughing]
Not anymore.
This is actually my therapy area.
So, my therapist comes in twice a week,
sits on this chair and I lay here,
and it's exactly what you would imagine.
I lay here and just-
- Talk about life. - talk about life.
[people laughing]
Talk about life.
- So this room,
obviously is very warm and earth-toney,
and we just want it to feel super cozy and not too bright,
everything muted and chill.
This table is actually really cool.
We've had this table since our first place we did with AD.
- I love that home so much.
- Yes. - It was like our little...
- It was our little three bedroom oasis,
and this is one of the only pieces
that is still with us from that home.
- Love that house.
[upbeat music]
This is our bathroom.
- Chrissy likes to do bath time with the kids.
- I do bath time with the kids.
I don't do solo baths.
There is a TV in here and so if I must...
There's a TV everywhere, I'm telling you.
If I must, I will sit maybe 5/10 minutes,
quick rinse, watch Bravo,
but me and all the kids will pile in here.
They love doing a family bath with me,
and we sit in here, we do a big bubble bath,
huh, Miles?
How much do you love bath?
You love baths so much. - He loves bath times
with mama especially.
- He brings all of his cars.
What else?
Dinosaurs - And dinosaurs.
- Yeah, [people laughing]
into the bathtub.
- Our shower's great, good pressure.
- The pressure. - That's all you need.
- Yes. - Really,
having a great shower is all about pressure.
In this space where we are now,
there was both a his and hers bathroom
and a his and hers closet.
We thought that was a little redundant
and so we did really big closet together
and then one nice sized bathroom together.
We don't need to be separated.
It feels very Victorian or something. [laughs]
[upbeat music]
Okay, AD.
I think we got some TV to watch, a robe to put on.
You can go home.
- Bye. Sorry.
- Take care.
- We've loved having you.
Bye.
