John Legend Shares Sneak Peak of 'Jesus Christ Superstar'

Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert airs this Sunday at 8/7 central on NBC, and John Legend just gave us a sneak peak into rehearsals!

He went live on Facebook and shared a video of him and Sara Bareilles performing "What's The Buzz?"

The live musical stars John Legend as Jesus Christ, Alice Cooper as King Herod, Sara Bareilles as Mary Magdalene, Ben Daniels as Pontius Pilate and so many other incredible performers.

Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert shows Jesus Christ's last days. 

According to USA Today, Legend said, "I grew up around a bevy of preachers and singers in the church, so I'm very familiar with this story, and what it means to so many people. What's cool about this show is how Andrew and Tim reimagined the last few days of (Jesus') life and really connected to his humanity."

Executive producer Neil Meron said, "It's a story people will never get tired of hearing, especially on Easter Sunday. The resonance of Superstar is probably more profound these days than when it came out in the '70s." 

Can you believe it's almost Easter Sunday already? I can't wait to watch this star-studded musical!
