Emily Blunt and John Krasinski are one of those rare Hollywood couples that actually seem, you know, relatable.

Theyโ€™re forever playing pranks on one another or making jokes about one another โ€“ but every now and again, one of them will sing the otherโ€™s praises โ€“ and subsequently leave fans swooning in their wake. 

The latest? Krasinski just admitted he cried the first time he heard his wife sing.

โ€œI had literally never heard her sing a note,โ€ Krasinski told Vanity Fair. โ€œI thought (the movie Into The Woods) was such a cool gig, but, to be honest, I was really nervous for her.โ€

When he told the filmโ€™s director, Rob Marshall, heโ€™d never heard Blunt sing before, Marshall arranged an impromptu concert.

โ€œHis mouth was wide open. He did not say anything. He just turned to the window, cued the song, the orchestra started playing, and Emily started singing, and I just immediately wept,โ€ Krasinski said.

โ€œIt was really wild. It was like finding out that your wife can levitate,โ€ he added. โ€œIt was just like, โ€˜โ€When were you going to tell me this?'โ€

If that wasnโ€™t enough, Krasinski also further sang his wifeโ€™s praises in Vanity Fair:

โ€œThe air changes in the room when she starts doing what she does. Itโ€™s so honest and so pure and so powerful. Itโ€™s like a superpower that she can just unlock and do so specifically with not many attempts. For me, I love acting, and Iโ€™m so lucky to be doing it. But sheโ€™s on another plane. This weird intersection happened while filming where I totally forgot I was her husband. I was just watching her performance and was lucky enough to be in the front row.โ€

Swoon!
