With big stars performing indoors and outdoors, the comedian expects a ‘music festival vibe.’
Trevor Noah took a careful approach hosting “The Daily Show” from his New York apartment during the pandemic, but he said traveling across the country to host the Grammy Awards was an opportunity he couldn’t pass up. “If you get asked to host the Grammys, I don’t think you take long to say ‘yes,’ ” said the Emmy winner, who will host the ceremony from downtown Los Angeles. “All you figure out is the how.” Initially, Noah wondered if the Grammys would be like most other major award shows that were held virtually during the pandemic. But he was assured that his first time hosting the ceremony honoring music’s best would be in person. Noah said the Grammys, which airs at 7 p.m. Sunday on WBBM-Channel 2, will have a “music festival vibe” with parts of the show held outdoors. He expects an entertaining show with several performers set to hit the stage including Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Cardi B and BTS.
