John Legend Responds to Critics of His ‘Baby, It’s Cold Outside’ Remake

John Legend looks so dapper while walking around New York City on Thursday afternoon (November 21) in New York City.

The 40-year-old singer did an interview at the Build Series that day to promote his Christmas album, A Legendary Christmas: The Deluxe Edition.

While attending Sirius XM’s Dial Up the Moment campaign event earlier in the week, John addressed the critics of his updated take on the classic song “Baby, It’s Cold Outside.”

“First of all, there’s no side to be on,” John told People. “It’s just another version of the song. If you don’t wanna listen to it, you don’t have to. No one’s saying you can’t listen to the old version. Those versions all exist. People make new versions of songs all the time and we thought it’d be fun to update the song and make it more current.”

“We wanted a comedic angle to it so I asked Natasha Rothwell from Insecure to be my co-writer on it,” he added. “She came up with so many funny ideas and we used so much of it and made a brand new version, one that’s kind of updated for now. And we had a lot of fun making it.”
