Trevor Noah: The New Face of The Daily Show

It wasn't long ago that comedian Jon Stewart bid farewell to the Daily Show after hosting the program for 17 years. Earlier this year, it was announced that 31-year-old comic Trevor Noah would be the one filling in for Stewart, and before his big debut tomorrow night, he's getting in some last minute practice. Noah has decided to start off the show by introducing himself as if it was his first broadcast. So, who is this Trevor Noah everyone's been talking about?

Trevor Noah is a comedian, actor, TV and radio host from Johannesburg, South Africa. He started acting when he was 18 years old and even began hosting his own radio show. He then went on to host numerous shows on television, including a sports show, a game show and an awards show. He decided to drop his radio show and acting to focus more on comedy, which led him to perform with several South African comedians and even international comedians, such as Gabriel Iglesias and Canada's own Russell Peters.

In 2011, Noah moved to the United States to pursue his career in comedy. Since then, he's been a guest on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno as well as the Late Show with David Letterman. After appearing on different comedy specials, the comedian became a recurring contributor on The Daily Show and this past March, Comedy Central announced that he would become Stewart's successor.

Within days of the announcement, attention was drawn on the internet to jokes that the comedian had made in the past. They were criticized as being very offensive to women and Jews. He responded on social media and tweeted that his jokes are not a reflection of who he is. Even the network stood by him by saying that just like every comic, he tends to push boundaries but he shouldn't be judged on a handful of jokes. That's why they're called jokes people!

All kidding aside, Trevor Noah has some pretty big shoes to fill. As long as he's himself, everything will go smoothly. And taking a few jabs at politicians wouldn't hurt either!

Tune in to The Daily Show with Trevor Noah tomorrow night on Comedy Central.

Bieber's Comeback: The Ups and Downs of the Teen Popstar

Justin Bieber is back and his fans couldn't be happier! After a five-year hiatus, Justin returned to the MTV VMA stage on Sunday night and performed his latest hits "Where Are U Now" and "What Do You Mean?". Following his performance, the teen heartthrob got a little teary-eyed and had viewers confused. During an interview on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, he explained to the host that he was so blown away by the positive energy from the crowd, that he got so emotional. Especially given that the last time he appeared on an awards show, he was booed. Bieber went on by saying: "I've worked so hard at the album. I've worked so hard at just becoming the man that I want to become". He's referring to the bad boy image he had due to his past troubles; he blames that on being surrounded by the wrong people.

From run-ins with the paparazzi, to multiple lawsuits, and even getting arrested abroad, the Biebs did not have the public's approval. His career really hit a low back in 2014, when the singer was arrested for DUI and drag racing in Miami Beach; he was only 20 years old. Bieber's mugshot went viral and the fans weren't very pleased with the person he had become. The media can be cruel and he isn't the only celebrity to have his troubles popping up all over the internet. But young teens look up to him and they love his music and everything about him. It's important that he keeps a clean image.

Justin says he wants to be around people who support him, who uplift him because there are a lot of people in the industry who want to bring him down. He has been working hard to improve his image ever since. It seems to be working because his new single "What Do You Mean?" just hit number 1 on the iTunes chart and his new album is set to be released in November.

Welcome Back Justin!
