Trevor Noah returns to host 2025 Grammy Awards
Trevor Noah is set to host the Grammy Awards for the fifth year in a row, marking a historic moment as he becomes the first comedian to take on this role five times.
Previously, only musical artists have reached this milestone, with Andy Williams holding the record for seven hosting gigs, followed by John Denver with six and LL Cool J, who has also hosted five times.
“@TrevorNoah is set to take us into Music’s Biggest Night to honor music and amplify support for the music community impacted by the Los Angeles wildfires,” the Recording Academy posted on social media.
The 67th annual Grammy Awards are set to take place on Feb. 2 with a “renewed sense of purpose” after wildfires swept Los Angeles in early January, the academy said previously.
According to the academy, this year’s show will raise funds for wildlife relief efforts and honor the first responders battling the flames.
Beyonce leads all artists with 11 Grammy nominations this year for her foray into country music, the album “COWBOY CARTER,” which dropped on March 29, 2024.
Charli XCX, Billie Eilish, Kendrick Lamar, and Post Malone are all nominated for seven awards each, while Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan, and Taylor Swift follow closely with six nominations each.
The event will be held at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
