    Yep, Jesus Christ Superstar was nominated a whopping 13 times, with John scoring a nod for Outstanding Lead Actor In A Limited Series Or Movie.

    One of the first people to congratulate John was his wife, Chrissy Teigen.

    And she did it in peak Chrissy Teigen style, of course.

    13 nominations for Jesus Christ Superstar this morning! John got two emmy nominations! If he wins, he will complete his EGOT and my spike tv award will probably be moved. But it’s ok I AM SO PROUD!

    Fans obviously loved it and were quick to come up with solutions, something which Chrissy was happy to entertain.

    But obviously Chrissy didn't feel too bad about having to move her Spike TV Award, because she might also score an Emmy for Lip Sync Battle!

    MORE IMPORTANTLY (because it’s me) LIP SYNC BATTLE WAS ALSO NOMINATED! 🔨🔌🔩 I cant find the microphone so that is a hammer, plug and bolt

    Oh, and if you're wondering where Chrissy gets her roasting skills from, she just low-key revealed that it might be her dad who's to thank.
