00:00We make like a little family sitcom about a guy who travels the world alone looking for love
00:05while he searches for his Grammy royalties and the tequila company that he never got to found.
00:10Talks about the time that he subbed in for Rihanna and like a whole weird story that brings everything together.
00:15Hey everybody, Trevor Noah here on the set of my Hollywood Reporter cover shoot
00:19and this is my career bucket list.
00:23Jon Stewart or Tour with Drake.
00:26These are very different tours.
00:27Yeah, I feel like backstage with Jon Stewart is going to be people coming up to us asking about the midterm elections
00:35and the prospects for democracy in the world.
00:38Backstage at a Drake concert, very different.
00:41I think on tour with Jon Stewart would be fun.
00:44Him and I have never been on the road together.
00:46We've only been in an office building.
00:47So you never know.
00:48Maybe we get up to some crazy antics when we're out there.
00:50I'll go on tour with Jon Stewart.
00:51Oh, that's a tough one.
00:53I mean, if I get featured on a Grammy winning song, that means I've got fans all over the world.
00:59If I star in a Marvel movie, that means I get a free personal trainer and it comes with a standard six pack.
01:05I think I'm going to go with the song because you can't eat your way out of a Grammy.
01:10Technically, I was meant to be in the group and then Anderson and Bruno just like pulled a fast one on me.
01:17Pretty much stole my style.
01:19So I would just, you know, get my rightful name on the Grammy that I inspired.
01:30That's a tough one.
01:32Hosting the Oscars would be amazing.
01:36Half the people always hate it regardless of who hosts.
01:39SNL is fun though.
01:41You get to play different characters.
01:42You get to do the monologue up top.
01:44You get to do a whole thing.
01:45That's a tough one.
01:46I would, you know what?
01:47Because I, because I get to host the Grammys, I would go with host SNL because that's completely different from something else that I do.
01:53It's weird.
01:54I feel like everyone has a tequila brand.
01:56Does everyone drink this much tequila?
01:57Do you?
01:58Do you really?
01:59It feels like everyone just found a farm out of nowhere.
02:01I'd probably want to do like a mushroom brand before that.
02:03Yeah, that's what I would try and do.
02:05Yeah, so I'd go with, I would go with my own sneaker, like my own original sneaker.
02:09That's what I would love to have.
02:11Run for president or run a marathon?
02:13Huh.
02:14Now, both terrible decisions, both grueling on your body, both you will regret afterwards.
02:21Both cause a lot of people to hate you.
02:24One, because you're running to run their lives.
02:28The other one, because you running ruins their lives.
02:30You block off all the streets.
02:31So this is a tough one.
02:32You put me in a tough place.
02:33I guess I would go with run for president because I think running for a marathon takes a lot more preparation.
02:40But it looks like running for president in this country, anyone can do.
02:43So I'll go with that.
02:44It's a lot easier.
02:45Own a private jet or own a sports team?
02:47Wow.
02:47Owning a private jet is a terrible idea.
02:49You know, I'm sure it'll be fun the first week for the selfies.
02:51But then at some point, you just have like this big jet.
02:54And now you're a plane operator.
02:56It's like you and Delta and JetBlue.
02:58You like have the same meetings.
02:59I don't want to own a private jet.
03:01I want to own a sports team.
03:02That would be amazing.
03:03You know what my dream would be?
03:05To be able to own a piece of Liverpool.
03:07I heard they're for sale.
03:08So maybe what I need to do is get my sneaker brand up and running.
03:12Use some of the money for my Grammy winning song.
03:15And then hopefully have enough to buy 1% of Liverpool.
03:21Wow.
03:21Sub in for Rihanna at the Super Bowl.
03:23Sub in for LeBron at the Lakers game.
03:25People would rather hear a Spotify playlist of Rihanna
03:30than me performing as Rihanna for the halftime at the Super Bowl.
03:34So I would definitely not replace Rihanna.
03:37I would then have to sub in for LeBron.
03:40And I think people would be angry, not as angry.
03:46And with how the Lakers are playing right now,
03:49they would be like, maybe this will help.
03:51And then they go like, oh no, it actually could get worse.
03:53So actually Trevor out, LeBron back in.
03:56And so maybe I'll bring the perspective to the people
03:58for why they should appreciate him.
04:00Because it could be worse.
04:01It could be me playing.
04:03I want to spend more time traveling alone.
04:05Or spend more time looking for love.
04:08Looking for love is such a strange statement
04:10whenever people say that, isn't it?
04:11I'm looking for love.
04:13Where?
04:13How?
04:14Do you even know what you're looking for?
04:17No.
04:17I would spend more time traveling alone.
04:19That's what I would do.
04:20I would choose to star in my own family sitcom.
04:24That's what I would do.
04:25Hosting a late night show is extremely difficult,
04:27especially when it's daily.
04:28I've done that.
04:29I've enjoyed it.
04:31But yeah, I'd love to try something different.
04:33And since you've only given me one of two choices,
04:35very fascist bucket list we have here,
04:38I will go with the second choice, cake or death.
04:41I will go with the sitcom.
04:44I'll go with the family sitcom.
04:45And yeah, we'll figure out what it is.
04:47And it'll be light.
04:48And it'll be funny.
04:49And then I'll ask Quinta Bronson to help me create it.
04:52You know, I'll reach out to Larry Wilmore, the genius.
04:54And then try and put all these pieces together.
04:56And then we'll see what we make, you know?
04:57We'll see we make like a little family sitcom
04:59about a guy who travels the world alone looking for love
05:03while he searches for his Grammy royalties
05:05and the tequila company that he never got to found.
05:08And like, you know,
05:09talks about the time that he subbed in for Rihanna
05:11and then also played basketball
05:12and owned a team that he was on.
05:14Like a whole weird story that brings everything together.
05:16What would I call the sitcom?
05:18Oh, looking for love.
05:20That's what it would be.
