The popular South African actor and comedian, Trevor Noah, has finally bowed out as the host of the American talk show, The Daily Show.
In September, Trevor announced that he would be stepping down as the host of the show after seven years.
The 38-year-old delivered an emotional speech at the end of the last episode of this year’s season.
Noah expressed his gratitude to members of the audience and the people who have been watching the show since its inception.
He also gave a “special shout-out” to “black women”, adding that they “shaped, nourished and taught” him.
“I’m grateful to you, every single one of you,” he said.
“I’m so grateful. I remember when we started the show, we couldn’t get enough people to fill an audience.
“This is random, for some, but special shout-out to Black women. I’ve often been credited with having these grand ideas. People are like, Trevor, you’re so smart.’
“I’m like, ‘Who do you think teaches me? Who do you think has shaped me, nourished me and formed me?
“I always tell people, if you truly want to learn about America, talk to Black women. Unlike everybody else, Black women can’t afford to f**k and find out.”
