Kids, you already know The Daily Show’s next host. He joined the program as a contributor in 2014. He was the first South African comedian to appear on Letterman and The Tonight Show. He hosted his own late night talk show in his native country called Tonight with Trevor Noah. See, you didn’t even have to guess. The next Daily Show host will be TREVOR NOAH. Trevor already has a huge international following and he is sure to rally an American audience as well. And what does Jon Stewart think? Read his words “I’m thrilled for the show and for Trevor. He’s a tremendous comic and talent that we’ve loved working with…In fact, I may rejoin as a correspondent just to be a part of it!!!” Oooooh, now THAT is the definitive seal of approval. The premiere date of this new Daily Show adventure hasn’t been announced yet, but we are ready for this next chapter in late night entertainment. Congrats, Trevor!
