The Recording Academy announced on Tuesday 24th November that Trevor Noah will host the 63rd annual Grammy Awards. The event will air on Sunday 31st January 2021 on CBS. This is Noah’s first time hosting the award show. It also comes after the comedian’s “Son of Patricia” received a nomination at the last event for best comedy album.

“Despite the fact that I am extremely disappointed that the Grammys have refused to have me sing or be nominated for a best pop album I am thrilled to be hosting this auspicious event. 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.” Trevor Noah said in a statement

Meanwhile, the interim president/CEO of the Recording Academy Harvey Mason Jr. said Noah is the “perfect choice.”

“With a knack for keeping viewers engaged and entertained, Trevor is the perfect choice to lead us through what’s sure to be an incredible evening full of music, unforgettable moments, unity and inspiration. He is a dynamic host, comedian and personality.  We’re thrilled to welcome him to the Grammy stage as host of Music’s Biggest Night for the first time,” said Mason.
