Trevor Noah Speaks Out After Kanye West Was Banned From GRAMMYs: ‘Counsel, Not Cancel’

Trevor Noah, 38, made his stance clear about Kanye West, 44, being banned from the GRAMMY Awards. “I said counsel Kanye not cancel Kanye,” The Daily Show host — who is hosting the GRAMMY Awards in April — penned via Twitter on Sunday, March 20.

The supportive stance comes hot off Trevor and Ye’s online debacle that began after Noah gave his opinion about Kanye’s on-going social media attacks aimed at ex Kim Kardashian and her new boyfriend Pete Davidson. “You may not feel sorry for Kim because she’s rich and famous, because of the way she dresses, because she appropriates black culture, because she tells women they’re lazy, broke the internet and then didn’t put it back together, whatever, you hate her,” Trevor said in an impassioned nine-minute monologue on his show, which aired on March 15. “But what she’s going through is terrifying to watch, and it shines a spotlight on what so many women go through when they choose to leave,” he sad.

Kanye has made his stance about Kim and Pete’s romance more than clear on social media, taking it to the next level when he buried an animated version of the Saturday Night Live comedian in his “Eazy” video.

The relationship marks Kim’s first publicly since filing for divorce from Ye after seven years of marriage in Feb. 2021. Last weekend, Kanye also said that he felt”antagonized” by Pete after he sent him a shirtless selfie, allegedly in bed with the SKIMS founder.
