'Total Loser': Trump Attacks Trevor Noah in Furious Post-Grammys Tirade

Trevor Noah’s joke linking Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein’s island led Trump to threaten legal action for defamation, calling the statement false, the day after the 68th GRAMMY Awards.

  • On Sunday, Trevor Noah hosted the 68th GRAMMY Awards at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles and made jokes aimed at US President Donald Trump, prompting his threat to sue.
  • Referencing recent winners, Noah quipped that Billie Eilish, who won Song of the Year, made a joke about Greenland and Epstein's island, prompting gasps.
  • President Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social denying he visited Epstein's island and called Noah's remark a `false and defamatory statement`, also calling Noah `a total loser` and threatening legal action.
  • The ceremony's winner in that category was the Dalai Lama, while high-profile moments included Bad Bunny joining Trevor Noah onstage with a brass band.
  • Noah framed the ceremony as his farewell and highlighted his sixth and final time hosting the Grammys, after becoming the first comedian to host five times by 2025.
