Having done away with their World Music tag, the Grammy Awards are ready to step into the future with their 2021 edition. And while the ceremonies won't have much of a live audience, the Grammys will have a new host in one Trevor Noah.

The wisecracking host of The Daily Show will take over from Alicia Keys, who previously hosted in 2019 and earlier this year.

In a statement, Noah said the following:

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. 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!

Funny!

The Grammys will take place on January 31.
