Trevor Noah’s R430m Earnings Doesn’t Surprise SA Fans

One of South Africa’s greatest talent exports, Trevor Noah is the fourth highest-paid comedian in the world, earning R430m! According to Forbes the Daily Show host, “earned the bulk of his income this year through stand-up, making him eligible for our list”.

“The Daywalker” made more than 70 stops across the world and had his second Netflix special last fall. His memoir Born A Crime, published in 2016, is still ranked as No.1 on the New York Times’ bestseller list for paperback nonfiction.

The world might be surprised by Noah‘s success but here in Mzansi we’re like “it’s just a beginning”. The 35-year-old comedian is definitely a force to be reckoned with. In just three seconds that he’s been in the USA, he has accomplished so much. The Daily Show with Trevor Noah currently has over 5,3 million subscribers on YouTube alone and has 1,9 billion views. Noah is also signed to host the Daily Show until 2020.
