The 2026 Grammy Awards seem to have sparked yet another beef, with Donald Trump taking to social media to slam the ceremony, as well as its host, Trevor Noah, after the event concluded. The current US President lambasted what are arguably the most elusive awards in the music industry in his rant. He also targeted Noah for a joke he made while hosting the 68th Annual Grammys.
Donald Trump criticizes the Grammys and Trevor Noah
Hours after the 2026 Grammys wrapped up, the POTUS shared a lengthy post on social media, blasting the awards.
“The Grammy Awards are the WORST, virtually unwatchable! CBS is lucky not to have this garbage litter their airwaves any longer,” Donald Trump wrote on his Truth Social profile. He then shifted focus towards host Trevor Noah and slammed him for having suggested that he was once a guest on the infamous Epstein Island.
“The host, Trevor Noah, whoever he may be, is almost as bad as Jimmy Kimmel at the Low Ratings Academy Awards. Noah said, INCORRECTLY about me, that Donald Trump and Bill Clinton spent time on Epstein Island. WRONG!!! I can’t speak for Bill, but I have never been to Epstein Island, nor anywhere close, and until tonight’s false and defamatory, statement, have never been accused being there, not even by the Fake News Media,” the businessman-turned-politician continued.
Notably, Noah mocked Trump after Billie Eilish won the Song of the Year Grammy for “Wildflower.” Felicitating the artist, the comedian stated, “There you have it, song of the year! Congratulations, Billie Eilish. Wow. That’s a Grammy that every artist wants — almost as much as Trump wants Greenland. Which makes sense because, since Epstein’s gone, he needs a new island to hang out with Bill Clinton” (via Variety).
In his Truth Social post, Donald Trump also used several derogatory adjectives to describe Trevor Noah before issuing a lawsuit threat against him. “Noah, a total loser, better get his facts straight, and get them straight fast. It looks like I’ll be sending my lawyers to sue this poor, pathetic, talentless, dope of an M.C., and suing him for plenty. Ask Little George Slopadopolus, and others, how that all worked out. Also ask CBS! Get ready Noah, I’m going to have some fun with you!” he added.
