Chrissy Teigen and John Legend were an exceptionally stylish duo at the 52nd annual American Music Awards.
The model, 40, showed off a new look and debuted freshly cropped bangs to go with her shoulder-length bob as she joined her singer husband at the star-studded show on Monday evening.
For the main event being held this year at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, she wore a bright orange, beaded gown that hugged her slender figure.
The Grammy-winning musician, 47, looked handsome in a long trench coat paired with matching, high-waisted trousers and a classic, white button-down.
He sported orange-tinted aviator sunglasses that complemented Teigen's figure-hugging dress.
The couple — who have been married since 2013 and share four children together — were attached at the hip while posing for photos together on the red carpet and inside of the venue.
Chrissy Teigen and John Legend arrived in style at the 52nd annual American Music Awards on Monday night
The couple made the award ceremony a sweet date night, and at one point, Legend was spotted being a gentleman to his wife when she suffered a wardrobe malfunction on the red carpet.
The model had paired her beaded dress with gold heels, which somehow got caught on each other when they were sauntering along the red carpet.
In the middle of their photo-op, Legend bent down to support her balance and help her untangle her dress.
Teigen shrugged off the minor mishap, and the couple posed for a few more photos together before heading into the venue for the big show.
Legend previously opened up about the secret to the success of their longtime marriage while making an appearance on Call Her Daddy in March 2023.
He said that he keeps his love life with Teigen alive by locking their children out of their room.
The two are parents to four children: Luna, nine, Miles, seven, and two-year-olds Esti and Wren.
On the show, he also gushed about his wife and said that her 'hottest' quality is her sense of humor.

She rocked rosy pink and warm coral makeup to go with the stunning, strapless gown
Inside of the venue, the pair put on a cozy display while enjoying the show
'It's probably obvious, but she makes me laugh all of the time, and I think that just changes your whole world when you have somebody around you that makes you laugh,' he said.
'Even when you go through the worst things ... when [your partner] has a sense of humor, it just makes life better. It really does,' he added.
At the 52nd AMAs, pop icon Taylor Swift leads the nominations with a huge eight nods in categories including Artist of the Year, Song of the Year for The Fate of Ophelia and Album of the Year for The Life of a Showgirl.
