Comedian and TV host, Trevor Noah, has been named as one of TIME’s Next Generation Leaders.
The magazine revealed on Friday that the Daily Show host and “nine other stars are ready to take over their fields”.
The article list ten young rising stars and industry changers; from innovative artists and athletes to risk-taking activists and groundbreaking entrepreneurs.
The Daily Show host was honoured after his massive contribution, which has doubled the show’s international reach and made him the master of the eloquent Trump-takedown, since his debut in 2015.
Speaking on the accolade, he said: ‘I inherited a sense of humor from my mom, the ability to laugh in the face of danger,’ Noah tells TIME.
