Grammy Host Trevor Noah on Why He’s Glad Travis Kelce Won’t Attend


The comedian and fourth-time host explains why he doesn’t attend any after parties, and why he hoped that Kelce would be occupied on Grammy night — for the Chiefs star’s sake.

Even though he is a hosting veteran, Noah tells Billboard he still gets nervous beforehand, and feels tremendous relief once the show is over and realizes he’s successfully eluded “the lion that was chasing us.” Below, Noah talks about his Grammy chances, what he’s learned about hosting “one award show at a time” and his feelings about Travis Kelce’s possible attendance at the ceremonies. Victoria Monet has seven; Boygenius, Brandy Clark, Miley Cyrus, Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo and Taylor Swift all have six nominations.
