Trevor Noah Roasts Prince Harry at Grammy Awards
During the recent Grammy Awards, Trevor Noah, known for his roles as a comedian, actor, and late-night host, didn't hold back when he took a playful dig at Prince Harry.
The multi-talented actor, who lent his voice to the AI Griot in the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Black Panther and its upcoming sequel, Black Panther Wakanda Forever, humorously compared Meghan Markle's husband to James Corden, a fellow entertainer with an impressive 10 Emmy Award wins under his belt.
Corden, who is also a singer and late-night host, seems to have earned Noah's admiration as well.
It appears that Trevor Noah has distanced himself from the so-called “Harkle train” just like James Corden.
This revelation came to light when Noah made a guest appearance on the final episode of Meghan Markle's Archetypes podcast, which focused on exploring various aspects related to men.
Interestingly, Judd Apatow, a renowned filmmaker, was the second guest on the show.
The podcast episode hinted at Meghan's attempt to showcase her inclusive approach by featuring male perspectives, possibly to dispel any misconceptions about her views on men.
During the podcast session, Meghan engaged in a light-hearted exchange with Trevor Noah, playfully questioning him about his potential as a husband.
While the nature of their banter remains ambiguous, it sparked curiosity among listeners.
Notably, nearly all the guests and crew members associated with Archetypes seemed to have some connection to the influential media mogul Oprah Winfrey.
Speculation arises regarding Oprah's involvement in facilitating guest appearances on the podcast, raising questions about Meghan's strategic choices in selecting participants.
In a separate development, Prince Harry faced public ridicule following the release of his memoirs, which became a subject of mockery on various late-night shows, including Jimmy Kimmel's.
Reports suggest that Harry initially planned to appear on Kimmel's show but reconsidered after witnessing the host's comedic jabs at his expense.
Trevor Noah, displaying his astuteness, appeared to distance himself from the Harkles, recognizing the pitfalls associated with aligning with individuals who attract public scrutiny and derision.
James Corden, a highly acclaimed 12-time Emmy winner and the affable host of The Late Late Show, provided insights into the entertainment industry's dynamics during a recent interview.
Corden's success story, transitioning from London to Los Angeles without sensationalizing personal anecdotes, stood out as a testament to his professionalism.
Meanwhile, viewers across social media platforms reacted to Trevor Noah's jest aimed at Prince Harry during the Grammy Awards, with many expressing surprise and amusement at the unexpected jab.
The diminishing popularity of Harry and Meghan Markle in the United States has not gone unnoticed by royal commentators, who highlight a waning interest among American audiences.
The couple's narrative, revolving around their experiences within the royal family, appears to have saturated media coverage, leading to a decline in public support.
Kinsey Schofield, a prominent figure in royal commentary, suggests that Meghan Markle's fan base in the US has dwindled, signaling a shift in public perception towards the Sussexes.
Recent polling data further underscores the fading appeal of Harry and Meghan in the US, particularly following the release of Harry's memoir.
A survey conducted among 2,000 American voters revealed a significant drop in public favorability towards the couple post-book launch.
Meghan's individual popularity also experienced a decline during the same period, indicating a broader trend of disinterest among US audiences.
Additionally, feedback on Harry and Meghan's Netflix documentary failed to resonate with viewers, trailing far behind popular dramas like The Crown in audience satisfaction metrics.
