The Hollywood Reporter

The Daily Show host has been tapped to helm the 63rd Grammy Awards on CBS on Jan. 31, the Recording Academy announced this morning. "Despite the fact that I am extremely disappointed that the Grammys have refused to have me sing or be nominated for best pop album, I am thrilled to be hosting this auspicious event," Noah said in a statement. "I think as a one-time Grammy nominee, I am the best person to provide a shoulder to all the amazing artists who do not win on the night because I too know the pain of not winning the award! (This is a metaphorical shoulder, I'm not trying to catch Corona). See you at the 63rd Grammys!" Recording Academy chair and interim president/CEO Harvey Mason, Jr. added: "With a knack for keeping viewers engaged and entertained, Trevor is the perfect choice to lead us through what's sure to be an incredible evening full of music, unforgettable moments, unity and inspiration. He is a dynamic host, comedian and personality, and we're thrilled to welcome him to the Grammy stage as host of music's biggest night for the first time." It's unclear at this point what the 2021 Grammys will look like due to the uncertainty of the pandemic.
