    So I went through the comment section and read over a thousand comments no cap... I was moved to tears because looking back, who would have thought a kid who was born in "apartheid South Africa" would attain this height and level of greatness. Think about it. What were the odds? He really has come so far and being an African myself from Nigeria I'm very proud of Trevor Noah, not just as an African but as a human being who admires and appreciate the works of a fellow human and giving that person their flowers. Trevor has really showed us that with talent , hard work and grace we can achieve anything. This man has talents far beyond comedy. A true role model

At the time I was going through a difficult phase of my life. His TH-cam comedy videos kept me sane and healed me completely. His wit, humor and intellect always baffled me. He is simply amazing. His performance at Correspondence dinner is the pinnacle of his hard work, humanity and resilient spirit. I love you Trevor!!! My brother from anada mother!

    This man is brilliant. Well thought out jokes while still passing impactful messages. None of that lazy comedy where every joke has to be lewd or have very inappropriate sexual undertones.

      @@hushmoney2058 🧐... the way I see it is he spoke truth about both sides, while making jokes. Best way break the tension while calling someone out.
      He attacked both sides to remain bi-partisan and make it impossible for him to be accused of targeting any particular side.

    I went all the way from wales uk to New York to see the Daily show. They were so nice. I had a walking stick at the time and they brought me out a chair to sit down while i waited to go in. When I went inside they gave me a seat right at the front so i would not have to walk up the steps. I loved it and would love to go again❤️❤️

Trevor is a class act and such an intelligent comedian . It wouldn’t surprise me that he was chosen for this honor but im just glad that he was recognized being the talent that he is . I really loved this . Beautiful performance all around

      That ‘coloured’ thing is only used in South Africa; and I do not say call yourself black because I know you are biracial; but given South Africa’s history on race relations anything classified as this or that by that government, to me at least, to be stamen with pinch of salt. It was all just their evil ‘divide and conquer’ strategy where they made sure they can suppress natives, for as long as they crash the populace into little splints with their little different tittles. I believe society makes man, and Trevor unlike most ‘coloureds’ of SA is 50% black and 50% white. He knows nothing about the ‘coloured’ way of life and culture because he was raised black by his black mom in a black township of Soweto amongst blacks, and that’s what moulded him into what he is; his accent, languages he speaks, customs and everything else…his entire life has been Xhosa/Sowetan so I don’t think claiming him as ‘coloured’ in the racist South African context makes sense because the question would be what about him is ‘SA coloured’ besides his skin tone??? The guy doesn’t really identify himself as such, he does point out though that in the South African context he is classified as such! The one thing I usually around my ‘coloured’ friends is wait for them to identify themselves as this or that and then I will also identify them as such! I never immediately call a person coloured because it’s uncomfortable for me to choose for someone that has a choice, so as. general rule I don’t call anyone coloured until they call themselves coloured. SA coloureds as you’d know have groups amongst them that call themselves hottentots and since the land issue many claim they’re Khoisan…which of course makes sense, given the history of the country; but also…having lived in Namibia I have had the privilege of meeting actually Khoi people and though they look ‘biracial’ many have no white ancestors. They’re simply just very light in complexion. It goes without saying that even in SA many dumped the Khoisan tag long ago and identified as coloured in order to benefit or survive apartheid. This is not how people like Trevor and Obama came into existence. They are biracial and SA ‘coloureds’ are not necessarily of biracial descent…many of them are, but many amongst them are also just Khoisan with light skins. We saw this during consultations on land redistribution debates! He may look coloured since he is biracial, but the SA ‘coloured’ population as defined by apartheid regime is a bigger mixed bag than simply black and white parents!

    Trevor, who i came to love for the bite of his humor on the daily show, is so very deeply informed, genuinely interested, prolific in his content creation, and i have to think,, he must have written this himself. It bears the indelible stamp of his sardonic wit. He's immensely talented, and he helped reshape the daily into the most relevant, intellectual, honest politi-com on the web.
    Edit: notice also-- Trevor has his material memorized quite well. Every other host delivers their speech looking down constantly at the lectern, reading it off the page. This is the best delivery I've seen yet.
