Today, the Grammys announced that South African comedian Trevor Noah will be hosting the 63 Grammy Awards taking place on January 31, 2020. The host of 'The Daily Show' will be hosting the awards for the first time in his career.
Trevor had this to say about his gig on The Grammys website."Despite the fact that I am extremely disappointed that the GRAMMYs have refused to have me sing or be nominated for best pop album, I am thrilled to be hosting this auspicious event," said the comedian.
"I think as a one-time GRAMMY nominee, I am the best person to provide a shoulder to all the amazing artists who do not win on the night because I too know the pain of not winning the award! (This is a metaphorical shoulder, I'm not trying to catch Corona). See you at the 63rd GRAMMYs!"
Noah shared his excitement through social media, writing. "In a year that most human beings would love to forget, there has been one constant force that has brought us together - Music. I’m truly honoured to be hosting The Grammys, a night celebrating all of our favourite artists who’ve helped keep us sane while we’re all stuck indoors!"
Trevor was nominated for a Grammy this year in the Best Comedy Album category for his audiobook Son of Patricia. Even though he didn't win, many would say that he got the last laugh as he'll be hosting the biggest music spectacle on the planet.
The comedian has been linked to Minka Kelly. According to Entertainment Tonight, the two were seen shopping for a house in LA. Rumours suggest that the two were quarantining together in Noah's Manhattan home. Neither Trevor nor Minka have confirmed or denied the reports.
Trevor has had a good November as he recently graced the cover of GQ magazine.
The worst thing about being on the cover of GQ is they can make you look so good people in real life are like... “Damn Trev, what happened?” The best part is... SHARING THIS HONOUR WITH GEORGE CLOONEY & MEGAN THEE STALLION! Thank you @gq@sheekswinsalways@mobolajidawodu 🙏🏾
