Los Angeles, February 2: US President Donald Trump lashed out at the "pathetic" and "talentless" Trevor Noah, who hosted this year's Grammy Awards, describing the ceremony as "the worst" and "virtually unwatchable." During Sunday night's Grammys, host Trevor Noah took a swipe at Trump and his one-time friendship with Jeffrey Epstein.

"The Grammy Awards are the WORST, virtually unwatchable! CBS is lucky not to have this garbage litter their airwaves any longer. The host, Trevor Noah, whoever he may be, is almost as bad as Jimmy Kimmel at the Low Ratings Academy Awards," POTUS said on the social media network Truth Social. After Billie Eilish won the 'Song of the Year' Grammy, Noah transitioned for a moment with a joke at Trump's expense. Grammys 2026: Steven Spielberg Wins First Grammy, Completes EGOT After 'Music by John Williams' Takes Best Music Film Award.

"There you have it, song of the year! Congratulations, Billie Eilish. Wow. That's a Grammy that every artist wants -- almost as much as Trump wants Greenland. Which makes sense because, since Epstein's gone, he needs a new island to hang out with Bill Clinton. I told you, it's my last year! What are you going to do about it?," Variety cited Noah's remarks from the award ceremony.

Trump took to Truth Social platform to hit back, "Noah said, INCORRECTLY about me, that Donald Trump and Bill Clinton spent time on Epstein Island. WRONG!!! I can't speak for Bill, but I have never been to Epstein Island, nor anywhere close, and until tonight's false and defamatory, statement, have never been accused being there, not even by the Fake News Media." Grammy 2026: Yungblud Wins Best Rock Performance at Grammy Awards, Pays Tribute to Ozzy Osbourne As Sharon Osbourne Makes Stylish Appearance.

Calling the host a "total loser", the US President wrote, "Noah, a total loser, better get his facts straight, and get them straight fast. It looks like I'll be sending my lawyers to sue this poor, pathetic, talentless, dope of an M.C., and suing him for plenty$. Ask Little George Slopadopolus, and others, how that all worked out. Also ask CBS! Get ready Noah, I'm going to have some fun with you! President DJT"

Noah also joked about current events and the news cycle. While explaining a Korean drinking game linked to Bruno Mars and Rose's hit song APT., he compared it to life in the US. Talking about the game, he told the audience: "In America, every time you turn on the news, you drink." He then looked back at how things have changed since the late 1990s. While talking about Lauryn Hill returning to the Grammy stage for the first time in many years, Noah compared past and present headlines."Back in 1999, the president had had a sex scandal, people thought computers were about to destroy the world and Diddy was arrested -- boy how times have changed," Noah said.

Noah also joked about the number of famous faces in the audience. While naming stars like Jamie Foxx, Pharrell and Doechii, he compared the room to a billionaire wedding. He told the crowd, "There are so many stars in this room, I feel like I'm at Jeff Bezos' wedding, but with way, way more Black people, you know what I mean?"

This year marks Noah's last time hosting the Grammys. He first took on the role while he was still hosting The Daily Show and continued even after leaving the show in 2022. He is also serving as an executive producer for this year's ceremony.
