Trevor Noah's Show Scores Three Emmy Nominations

The Daily Show has scooped the nomination in the Best Variety Talk Series category for the first time with Trevor Noah as host. Trevor is not a stranger to the awards as he won his first accolade last year in the Best Short Form Variety Series category for his YouTube comedy special, The Daily Show: Between the Scenes.

The comedian, who is in Russia for the Soccer World Cup, posted a picture of himself on Instagram, captioning it: “Wow, I visited Russia for 3 days and now The Daily Show is nominated for 3 Emmys. Next time I should stay for a week and then run for president. To all the people who voted for us and to all who watch our show I could not be more grateful.”
