Donald Trump Claims Defamation After Trevor Noah's Grammys Epstein Joke [View all]

President Donald Trump is firing back at comedian Trevor Noah after a joke made during the Grammy Awards sparked outrage, and now, a legal threat. Trump took to his Truth Social platform on Monday to unload on both Noah and the awards show itself, calling the 2026 Grammys “the WORST” and “virtually unwatchable.” Donald Trump also took aim at CBS, which is set to end its long-running broadcast deal with the ceremony after 2026, saying the network was “lucky” it would no longer be airing what he described as “garbage.”

Trevor Noah Kicks Off Grammys With Nicki Minaj–Trump Joke

Noah, who hosted Sunday night’s ceremony at Los Angeles’ Crypto.com Arena, didn’t shy away from political humor during his monologue, including a jab involving Nicki Minaj. “Nicki Minaj is not here,” Noah said to loud cheers from the crowd. “She is still at the White House with Donald Trump discussing very important issues.”

The comment referenced Minaj’s recent visit to Washington, where she praised Trump, a move that many saw as part of her increasingly public alignment with MAGA politics. Noah then slipped into a Trump impression, adding, “Actually, Nicki, I have the biggest a-s. Everybody’s saying it, Nicki.”

But it was a later joke that truly set Trump off.
