Thai markets can be busy places, but last night one in the northeast became a zoo when famed American musician John Legend and his Thai-American model wife Chrissy Teigen arrived for a family night out.

An army of fans can be seen surrounding the celebrities and following them around the Korat market in a nearly 25-minute live video posted last night. Legend, who is seen holding his toddler daughter, never wears out his smile but shows hints of weariness by the celebrity treatment while a bodyguard attempts to manage the crowd.

At about 10 minutes in, Legend’s 3-year-old daughter Luna points in the direction of the camera, soon after which she’s presented a unicorn balloon.

Two narrators can be heard describing the scene and claiming that Legend and his family visited Korat landmarks including its famous statue of city heroine Thao Suranari.

On Tuesday, Teigen, a 33-year-old former Sports Illustrated model, posted images of the couple snacking on local food including pork scratchings, silk worms and crickets on Instagram.

Legend performed in Bangkok for the first time in March 2018 as part of his Darkness and Light tour.
