Crush of the Week: The ‘S’ is for Slut

by Tess Adair

 

I really wasn’t sure how I would feel about this. The day had to come, but I didn’t know how it would go. And then it came.

Trevor Noah began his tenure as the new host of The Daily Show.

 

 


I read his controversial tweets when they showed up after he was announced. I didn’t like them. I worried they might be indicative of something. But I don’t believe in judging someone’s entire person based on one dumb decision. I do believe people change and grow, and I believe that as a culture, we need to be able to forgive people.

So I went into this new version of The Daily Show with an open mind. And you know what, Trevor Noah?

You had a damn good week.

But I have to admit something.

Sometimes, it was a little bit hard to be objective. You’re just so fucking cute.

Dimples for dayyyyyyys boy.

Yes, you look good in a suit, too. Cocky jerk.

Adorable cocky jerk. You’re kinda weird, too. I like it.

Oh, about the title of this post--Trevor started off one of the episodes with a joke about his next Halloween costume: he’s going as a Sexy iPhone 6s. “The ‘s’ stands for slut.”

Yeah boy. Slut.it.up.

The new era of The Daily Show has begun.

And it’s beautiful.
