Tell a friend to tell a friend, he's back!
South Africa's golden boy Trevor Noah is back in action at the 2023 Grammy Awards. The 38-year-old is hosting the show for the third year time in his career.
"I’m super excited to be hosting the #Grammys once again! Three-peat baby!," the comedian wrote on Instagram. The Recording Academy all celebrated Trevor's return.
"Tell a friend to tell a friend, HE’S BACK!" it commented on one of his posts.
The 65th Annual Grammy Awards ceremony is taking place on February 5 at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
Beyoncé is leading the 2023 nominees with a total of nine nominations. The 'Break My Soul' hitmaker is the most-nominated female artist in Grammy history. She has received 79 nominations throughout her career and with 28 wins.
Other nominees include Kendrick Lamar, Harry Styles, Adele, Brandi Carlile, Coldplay and Taylor Swift.

Trevor Noah will be reuniting with some of his colleagues from 'The Daily Show'. Several staffers from the show have worked on previous ceremonies and will return again in 2023.
Trevor left the show in December after seven years at the helm.
Oprah Winfrey, Bill Gates, Hillary Clinton, and Jesse Williams were some of the high-profile figures who bid his a heartfelt farewell on his last day.
The 'Born A Crime Author' is on the cover of Billboard magazine's Grammy issue which dropped a few days ago. He says he is ecstatic to be hosting the ceremony again.
"I don’t think it’s normal to host it once, so I don’t have a great frame of reference for this. It is thrilling. For me, it’s a cheat code because I’m a fan of almost all the people who are there. It has also been interesting because of the journey. The first one was [during] COVID-19, and it was a completely different way to make the show. And then the next one was in Las Vegas because of the restrictions [in Los Angeles], and that was a different type of show. Now it’s exciting [because] it’ll be the first one for me back in L.A. — that’s hopefully not just normal, but different for the right reasons," he told the publication.
