Does not have to... It must match From field which is correct here.
Syntax like:

From: Foo <foo@com>
Signed-off-by: Foo <foo@com>
Signed-off-by: Foo <my-other-email-foo@com>

makes sense only if copyrights change (e.g. change of employers) and/or
one email stop working. How would be the point of having to SoBs for the
same person in other cases?

Best regards,
