Taking over from Jon Stewart in 2015, Noah has hosted the satirical news and talk show since then. He said his departure would be announced later and that he would continue to host until then.

Noah started his career in his native South Africa, releasing stand-up specials and hosting a late-night talk show before moving to the States in 2011.

Despite previously being an unknown, Trevor Noah went on to become an internationally recognized star and collected a number of awards after assuming the Daily Show role on the Comedy Central network.

In his announcement on Thursday night, Noah thanked The Daily Show’s crew and loyal fans for seven “amazing” years, adding: “It’s been wild, truly wild”.

“I remember when we first started… so many people didn’t believe in us,” he said. “[Appointing me as host] was a crazy bet to make. I still think it was a crazy choice, this random African.”

“I just [find] myself filled with gratitude for the journey. It’s been absolutely amazing. It’s something that I never expected.”

He told the audience that after all that had happened during his time hosting the show, including the Trump presidency and the Covid pandemic, he had decided, “This is my time up, but in the most beautiful way”.

“I’ve loved hosting this show, it’s been one of my greatest challenges, it’s been one of my greatest joys. But after seven years, I feel like it’s time,”

“I realised there’s another part of my life that I want to carry on exploring. I miss learning other languages, I miss going to other countries and putting on shows. I miss just being everywhere and doing everything.”

“I’m really grateful to a network who believed in this random comedian nobody knew on this side of the world.”

“I never dreamed that I would be here. I sort of felt like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I came in for a tour of what the previous show was, and then the next thing I know I was handed the keys.”
