Howard Stern has voiced his criticism of Trevor Noah's hosting performance at the Grammy Awards. On his SiriusXM show, Stern commented that Noah lacked edge and was more like a "cheerleader" than a roastmaster. Stern played clips from Noah's monologue, where the comedian praised Mark Ronson and Grammy winner 21 Savage. Stern jokingly imagined Noah going on to talk about Savage's financial nature and even his physique. Despite his criticism, Stern acknowledged the difficulty of hosting such a major awards show and referenced Jo Koy's disastrous Golden Globes monologue as an example. Stern's opinion seems to be in the minority, as Noah has received widespread praise for his hosting skills, with Taylor Swift even commending him for doing a "beautiful job." While Stern didn't express interest in becoming the next host, it is worth imagining how edgy his hosting style would be, something the Grammys may never consider.
