People accused John Legend of having an ego so high it clouded his judgement.

@BwareLAFlare posted a meme:

"Ain't nobody trying to hear that right now, man."

@DMoss75 shared:

"I wouldn't want to hear that sitting on a beach watching the sunset with the wind going through my hair and glazing in the eyes of my husband. Definitely not after putting these fires out hot, hungry, thirsty, tired making sure my people are ok."

@RedNationZ_ asked:

"Incarcerated heroes or slave labour? Which is it?"

@CforCuriosity remarked:

"The ego to think they want to hear you sing while they eat after working a long shift."

@jeanpaulw joked:

"They must have committed the most heinous of crimes to get this kind of punishment."

@cdubzX86 stated:

"For some reason I have a feeling that firefighters aren’t the biggest John Legend fans."
