John Legendâs Career, Future In Doubt After Being Stabbed in Neck
R&B star John Legend was found this morning naked in Central Park, bleeding profusely from the neck in an apparent stabbing. Preliminary investigations have all but confirmed wife Chrissy Teigenâs version of events â that the star was accidentally stabbed in the throat by his wifeâs abnormally sharp-edged shoulder. Paramedics on the scene were able to stem the blood flow, saving the singerâs life, but casting doubt on whether heâll be able to sing again.The celebrity couple were, according to Tegin, âattempting to live out a lifelong fantasyâ of Legendâs.âWith my mama living a sort of nomadic life, and not having a house or bedroom to ourselves that we could keep on rocking until she comes knocking, the next best option was toâ¦kissâ¦and stuffâ¦underneath the stars in the park. Itâs just a shame that I have such a hazardously perfect imperfection.âDoctors treating Legend were upbeat about his diagnosis.âRight now, weâre pretty positive,â said trauma surgeon Keith Van Der Bolt. âJohnâs going to live a full life. Heâll be back to making love in the relatively near future. Weâd recommend some padding, though â Chrissyâs love apparentlyÂ hurts.âDespite the good news, the doctor in charge of his rehabilitation had a grim outlook on the singerâs career. âWhile he may not entirely lose his singing voice, his vocal range will never again match that of Beyonce,â said Dr Herb Whelan. âWeâre hoping that heâll at least be able to reach those pedestrian notes of Rihanna. But whatâs more likely is that heâll have to settle for Keshaâs half octave.âAt press time, Legend had just released his first statement since the accident, saying, âGarble garble, ugh, gnt, nut, flbble shmut.â
