With his latest album, ‘Darkness & Light,’ currently lighting up the Billboard charts, Grammy-winning singer John Legend is set to see his name in lights at the 2017 NBA All-Star Game’s Halftime Show, according to reports.

Sure to be crooning some of his biggest hits like ‘All of Me,’ ‘Ordinary People,’ and more, the prized pianist may seem an unlikely pick for the job.  But, if any of his show-stopping performances at award shows over the years are any indication, viewers will be in for a treat.
