Here's the guy who's going to replace Jon Stewart on 'The Daily Show'
YouTube
"On Monday, Comedy Central will announce that Mr. Noah has been chosen as the new host of "The Daily Show," succeeding Mr. Stewart after he steps down later this year," The New York Times reports.
"I'm thrilled for the show and for Trevor," Stewart said in a statement.
You may be asking: who? You're not alone. That's what everyone on Twitter is wondering. Noah, 31, may be somewhat of an unknown in the United States, but Entertainment Weekly says he's "something of a superstar in South Africa, regularly selling out giant theaters for stand-up shows and scoring big numbers for his televised specials."
Noah has been a member of the Daily Show team since December 2014, when he came on as a correspondent. So far, his contributions have been relatively limited: His first appearance was on December 4, when he riffed on Ebola with Stewart and played a very entertaining game called "Spot the Africa." He next showed up on January 22, for a report on Boko Haram that once again poked fun at the United States' lack of commitment to fighting terrorism in Africa. He last appeared on the show on March 19, when he and Stewart played chess.
Here's a video of Noah doing "Spot the Africa."
