Trevor Delivers A Special Message To The Daily Show Audience | Iman

for you. Tonight. Florida is hurricane by ding. Donald Trump tried to overthrow the government using diet coke, and Ronnie Chang faces down. Kim Jong Oun, plus our guest tonight is an international icon. In Martin is joining us on the show. Everybody, Okay, forward to that. So let's do those people. That comes straight into today's headlines. Alright, before we get into the big stories, let's catch up on

a few other things going on in the world. Let's kick things off in public health news, the f d A has issued new guidelines as to which foods can be labeled healthy, and that now includes nuts and salmon. And as much as I appreciate that, I didn't need the government to tell me that salmon is healthy. We all know that, because that's the thing that people aller at weddings when they want to let you know that they're better than everyone else. Oh yeah, I'll have the salmon.

In international news, the Queen of Denmark has stripped her grandchildren grandchildren of their royal titles because she says she doesn't want them to be limited by their royal duties, which is the most posh way ever to say bitch, get a job. Yeah, those grandkids must have been so grateful. It's like, wow, Grandma, thanks for not forcing me to be a prince anymore. I really hated all the attention and the free jewelry. I love being known as the

grandkid formerly known as prince. Thank you. It's so funny how the British monarchy had so much drama that all the other monarchies are not looking around, like maybe we should shut this ship down while we still ahead. Yeah yeah, yeah. Oh. In gaming news, this is a fun one. The maker of the card game You Know has come out officially and updated its rules to clarify that you cannot play a draw too on top of another draw to to make the next person draw for. Yeah, yeah, yeah, they

said draw to you take the draw to. That's it. That's it. I agree with you. I mean, like, who makes who makes these rules? I will say it's cool that they're doing it. You know, if they ask me, we need to fix more game rules, you don't forget, you know, I think that works. Monopoly needs prison reform. Yeah, my brother gets like nine turns buying up all the properties while my symbol is stuck in jail. How is

that fair? No justice, no peace. Let's move on to some of the biggest stories of the day, starting with the fallout from Hurricane In. Last night, the monster storm hit Florida like Florida just came home with a report card full of f's, flooding the streets, destroying homes and infrastructure, and leaving millions without power. Now, the good news is that people took all the advanced warning seriously, so despite

the destruction, there were very few casualties. And as the storm recedes, we're learning about some amazing ways that the people of Florida have pulled together. While the storm was raging over my shoulder hair, you can see the incredible

power of Hurricane In. But now comes as we've already seen the selfless power of people, neighbors, friends, even complete strangers doing whatever they can to help rescues onshore and on land firefighters helping a woman escape floodwaters, but the fire department also thanking local jet skiers for helping out, writing sometimes we need a ride to the rescue ourselves. In Benita Beach, one good samaritan braiding the elements to save a cat trapped outside on an air conditioner. Many

of the sailboats are on their side. There was a guy who went on to to to get his three pets off that that were still on the boat. In St. Petersburg, staff at a botanical gardens hunkering down with flamingos to see them through the storm. Wow, that is amazing. That's so nice just to see like everybody coming together, you know, helping cats, helping the flamingos. I mean, I mean it's nice, But do flamingos need more help than humans in a hurricane?

It's just weird. Just like, don't worry flamingos. I'll protect you if something was like where the water bird, dude, we'll protect you. But this is all amazing, right, this is the response to the storm was so powerful that it led to something we've never seen before. Jet ski is being responsible. Yeah, getting rescued by a jet ski is so awesome because it doesn't matter how exhaust or emotional you are, you can't stay that way on the jet ski, right, Yeah, you're gonna be there like, oh

my god, thank you, thank you, I owe you my life. Alright, shredding roh, yeah, crank that diesel bit and that's where the people rescuing the cats. That is true selflessness, because that's somebody who's going, look, we lost everything, our house is destroyed, we don't have power, but and hit me out on this. What if we also had our faces scratched the ship? What do you think? It really is

beautiful to see. But let's move on because while Florida is recovering from this storm, there is still the storm that is always hits in America. Donald J. Trump new revelations on the final days of former President Donald Trump's presidency. In reporting provided to see an nd from a forthcoming book by New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman, Trump repeatedly told aids following his election loss that he would refuse

to leave the White House. Haberman's book reports that Trump told one aid quote, I'm just not going to leave. Haberman reports Trump quiz nearly everyone around him on how to stay in power, among those who reportedly asked the valet who brought him diet coke when Trump pressed a red button on his Oval office desk, oh Man, that is so much pressure to put on your soda guy. But he asked the valet who brings him the diet coaches, like showed a boy, I need you to make me

the emperor of America. How do I do it? How do I just like, yeah, you just gotta coke zero? Man. You know, if I'm honest, I think it is less weird to get advice from your diet coke valet and more weird to have a diet coke valet. But I mean, once you got him, you might as well get his input, right, Just be like, yeah, what do you think about it? How do we take a country? Huh? The real travesty to me is that Trump didn't follow through with his

plan of just not leaving. Yeah. I would have been exciting. Yeah. I would have loved to have seen the FBI chasing Trump around the White House. Like an episode of Scooby Doo. Right, this chase him through one door, he chases them through another door, and then they're all being chased. My goat is just like, well, many people are saying, ra R so much danger, scoop so much danger. Let's move on. Let's move on from the previous administrations of the current one.

As you all know, Joe Biden is the President of the United States. But what if I told you there's also a Vice president of the United States. Yeah, it's true, it's true. Her name is Kamala Harris. What I can hear? You know? If that's the case, Trevor, how come I've never seen her? What are you gonna tell me next? Slender Man is real and I should kill my family. Okay, well, I can't speak to the veracity of slender Man, but I do have proof that Kamala Harris exists, and she

was just spotted in South Korea overnight. Vice President Kamala Harris arrived in South Korea for the last leg of her four day trip to Asia. She paid a visit to the de militarized zone that divides the Korean Peninsula. The move is to demonstrate America's commitment to its Asian allies. Well, Blade, Kamela, Well Blade, if there's one way to remind people you exist, it's to go stand at the border between North and South Korea. Now everybody knows your name. Yeah, it's the

same way. No one knew that I existed in high school. Nobody until the day I streaked naked across the football field. And from then on everyone knew one. Testicle travelers in our school, Oh they knew me. They all know me anyway, because this is such a major moment on Vice President Harris's trip, we go live to our very own Ronnie Chang, who is in the deep minis horrize zone. Ronnie, how is it going over there? Oh, Trevor, Yeah, it's going really well. Thanks so much for sending me here. By

the way, great assignments, not racist at all. Anyway. The last president was just here and she just rocked up to the border with the giants of binoculars and instead of North Korea like a geopolitical pervert. And honestly, Trevor, I don't get it. Why is she here? Why am I here? Why is anybody here? What are you guys even looking for? You think you're gonna see something that all the generals and the satellites missed. It's like, oh, look, look they forgot to lock the gate. Let's go go.

Now what's an idiots? Honestly, what's she looking at? What? What is it? What? What? You know? What? Let me just look out for myself, right let's oh, oh look it's it's Kim Joan And uh it looks like he's all watching me on the Daily Show. Oh maybe that guy's not all that bad after all. Hey hey, hey, kemmy, y'all follow me back on I g man. Anyway, the Vice President was here to strength in America's alliance with South Korea against North Korea. And let's just see how

that worn. An embarrassing gaff by Vice President Harris today when she affirmed America's alliance with the wrong Korea. So, the United States shares a very important relationship, which is an alliance with the Republic of North Korea, and it is an alliance that is strong and enduring. Wow. Wow, you think North Korea is South Korea? So I guess all Asian countries look the same to you, Madam Vice President? What's next? You're gonna mix me up with Team Mulu. Huh, seriously,

can you could? Could you do that least, because I would totally be fine with that. No, no, no, no no, I'm just joking. I'm just joking. We're just joking. Everyone was just joking, okay about the vice president. Nobody give her a hot time about this, or we won't see her again for another six months. All right, back to you, Trevor. Hey, hey kid, hey kid, yo yo yo. Uh Hey, why don't you check out my comedy special on Netflix. Yeah, used Travel's password. It's I Love big Buck. All right,

Thank you so much, Fronie chatting. Thank you so much, Ronnie chatting everybody, maybe so much. Not my pocket, my podka. Right before we go. I was I was chatting to Roy Wood Jr. Yesterday when we finished the show, and he reminded me that it has been seven years since we started the Daily Show with Trevor Noh. Yeah, we

think also. And one of the one of the overriding feelings I I found myself experiencing throughout the nights and even today waking up, was was a feeling of gratitude, you know, Ronnie, Like the journey we've been on together has been wild, you know, Roy you know, all the correspondents, everyone, there's so many people who make this thing come together. And I want to say thank you to the audience for an amazing seven years. It's been wild. It's been.

It's been too wild. I I I remember when, I remember when, I remember when when we first started, and you you remember this, Ronnie, it was, you know, so many people didn't believe in us. It was a crazy bet to make. I mean, I still didn't think it was a crazy choice. Um, you know, it's just random African and bringing these guys from Malaysias, from these guys with accents, yeah, man, and and and what a journey

it's been. Every single one of you who comes here to support us every single day, everybody who's who's watched the show. And then it's grown all around the world. And you know, I recently went to India for the first time and the people there who you know, have supported everything that we've done. And I just found myself filled with gratitude for for the journey it's been. It's

been absolutely amazing. It's something that I never expected. And I found myself thinking throughout the time, you know, everything we've gone through, the Trump presidency, the pandemic, just the journey of you know, the more pandemic um and and and I realized that after the seven years, UM, my time is up. I uh yeah, but in in in the most in the most beautiful way. Honestly, I I've loved hosting this show. It's been one of my greatest challenges.

It's been one of my greatest joys. I have loved trying to figure out how to make people laugh even when the stories are particularly shitty on the worst days. You know, We've we've laughed together, We've cried together. Um. But after seven years, I feel like it's it's it's time. You know. I spent two years um in my apartment, not on the road. You know, stand up was done. And and when I got back out there again, I realized there's a not a part of my life that

I want to I want to carry on exploring. You know. I miss learning other languages, I miss going to other countries and putting on shows. I oh miss being everywhere doing everything. And I'm really grateful to every every single person who's here, even the people who aren't here right now, because they went on to do great things. We helped us do this thing. Um, you know it's uh, it's a weird thing to say, never been good at at goodbyes, And it's not instant. I'm not disappearing. Don't worry. If

I owe you, Mone, I'll still pay you. Um. And I'm really grateful, you know, to a network who believed in this random comedian nobody knew on this side of the world. You know, South Africans knew and loved me. Yeah you know, and and yeah, you know, Paramount has been amazing, Viacom CBS has been amazing, Bob Bakish who believed in me, Chris McCarthy, Kais you know, even the previous team Kent and Sarah and Michelle and Doug and and I've been lucky enough to be doing multiple projects

with them. And I've been inspired by by new ways to express myself, you know, whether it be hosting a White House Correspondence dinner or doing different stand up shows around the world, whatever, whatever it may be. The point is, UM, I wanted to say thank you to you and and to you who watched this, and to you who come and because sometimes you do both. Um, because man, I never I never dreamed that I would be here. I

sort of felt like Charlie on the Chocolate Factory. I came in for a tour of what the previous show was, and then the next thing I know, I was handed the keys. Um. But I couldn't have done it without you, and I wouldn't have wanted to do it without you. And so we'll figure out the timings and the winds. You know, well, we'll still be here for the time being. But all I can say is thank you very much. You've made you truly little differ on the bulk of

stuntys on my life. M h m hm. One of the most frustrating things about the Internet for me is that I don't know if it's creative people who do this or it's it's encourage them, but it makes it feel like people are less inclined to listen and more inclined to want to immediately like dunk on a person or an idea or do you know what I mean? But they don't engage anymore. People don't engage. People just

want to be a ha. God, what about what about the reason that the reason I talk about that is because of the story in Iran that's happening right now.

I'm sure you all know it, but if you don't, what's happening in Iran is many people are going into the streets, predominantly women, protesting, protesting in the streets against the governments of Iran and against what they call the morality police that has been getting stricter and stricter every single regime in Iran where they force women, you know, to wear the hig job and then like how they wear it is also important to it's just like basically

just a bunch of random dudes policing women you're not moral enough, and it's oftentimes there's no rhyme, there's no reason, they just harass women. And so now after a woman named Masso Amani was taken into custody by the Iranian morality Police, she died, right she was twenty two years old and she died. And so women in Iran are just poured out into the streets and they just said, we're not taking this ship anymore. We're fighting for our rights.

It's one of the biggest movements people I've ever seen

in alone. But but what's so what's so disappointing is seeing and I guess it's the Internet, but you see people who now use this as an opportunity to dunk on a religion that they hate, you know, so they're like, oh so now we're saying the hedge job is bad and oh yeah, you see islam my thought and it's like no, no, If you understood what has happened, if you took the time to read beyond a tweet or a headline, what you'd understand is those women in Iran

are not saying we're against people practicing their religion. What they're saying is we are against the government forcing everybody to practice one religion and practice it in one way. That's what they're saying. There's a big difference between the two. Like I've always believed that it like, you have whatever religion you want, worship however you want, as long as it doesn't hurt somebody else. Yeah, that's that's your religion.

That's fine, you know. But once it becomes a government saying you have to and you shouldn't and this is how you have to do it, and became you know what I mean, becomes this big thing where they're like oppressing people as well, because it's not even there's even stories where they'll say like, oh, the job wasn't on tight enough, the scoff wasn't tight enough on the woman's say, It's like who, who's defining this and why? More importantly, you get the people on the incidents like yeah, we're

we're again, in fact, burn them everywhere. Burning. It's like, where I see what you're doing. You are being an asshole. That's what you're doing. Well, yeah, that's what they should have on on social media as well. They should also verify assholes. It's like, oh, verified asshole, Okay, now I know what I'm dealing with. Then I would even click. I'd be like, what are the assholes saying? Oh, that's

an interesting point. What's about the Day Show? My guests tonight is a legendary supermodel, philanthropist, and on trepany, she's here to talk about a new docu series that explores black models as impact on the fashion industry and American culture. The first two episodes of Supreme Models are available available right now on YouTube, with new episodes to follow. Please welcome imm on the icon, the legend, the face known

all over the world, and welcome to The Daily Show. Okay, So I was listening to you because I'm a huge fan of the show and I love that bet about your grandmother. Think you're famous, so it's like an African grandmother. Yeah, they're all the same, they're all the same. That thing our name now is famous? Well, I feel like your name could be famous because you are synonymous with the

fashion industry. You're synonymous beyond the fashion industry. And when I heard you were making a docuseries about the impact that black models have made on not just the fashion industry, but America as all, I was really intrigued. And I was surprised and shocked because many people would say, Okay, we understand maybe how black people have influenced fashion, but black models in the world of civil rights, How did you even begin to know about the story and want

to tell it? Well, Uh, the YouTube and the directors contacted me during COVID and they said that they wanted to do this Docky series and about black beauty and black specifically the history of black models. And I said to them, what will you bring to the table that it's new And they said, there is no documentary and black beauty or black models ever. What this is the first? Wow?

So automatically, of course, I said, yeah, I'm on board, But what I really wanted to make sure is that I wanted to to to highlight not the just the trial and tribulations of black models in this industry, but the joy and the celebration. Yeah. I love that, Yeah, because I feel like that is that is the journey. You know, it's child's tribulations, but the joy as well, which is oftentimes overlooked and exactly exactly you know, the and also the as as culture, I mean, the the crid.

The jure in the sixties was black is beautiful. Yes, that hasn't changed inched We are just now a tribe of black beauties that I love that you you're not showcasing a generation from the current models all the way through to many of the pioneers Luna exact exactly when you look at the industry through the lens that only you can, do you think it's changed enough? Have you seen change that you're proud of? And how far do

you still wanted to go? The what what's been happening in the industry is like when I started in nineteen seventy six, um, a lot of designers were using black models. But then it happened like in twenty thirteen, there was this article in the New York Times that said the blonde leading the blonde and the blackout of the black model. For six years, for six years, none of the designers have used any black models. So I was shocked by it. By then I retired from Madelin. I was doing inmand Cosmetics.

But when I saw that article, Naomi campbell I and Beth and Hardison, the three of us joined forces together and wrote to the designers of America and the European designers to talk about specifically about this issue. What what is happening? How come there was more black models in the seventies and eighties and nobody was using them. What happened was that a lot of designers were having casting

agents who do the casting for them. The casting agents now become the people with the with the power, and they said, they said to the agencies, we're not seeing black models this season, as if they were a trend. Yeah, so so we were. What we were trying to talk about was not calling them out or canceling them out when we were trying to call them in to understand, are you aware, on your behalf, on your name, what the dis casting agents are doing? Because before I call

you any names. I just want you to know first, I love that, and and then they respond accordingly you it was palpable to change. I love that. Yeah, palpable to change. So it is like if you see it, say something so basically, yeah, that's what it was. Legend and legend and legend and legend from the beginning to the middle to the end. Even when you're out of

the modeling industry, you're you're not telling these stories. And you know what, I didn't know so many parts of your journey, for instance, starting a cosmetics brand when black women weren't getting any cosmetic experience that we're focusing on them. You you, you really paved the way for brands like Fenty that you see today that are doing so well, that are that are growing everywhere. If you could change one thing about the modeling industry instantly, what is the

thing you would change. I would change the decision makers that people on the top should be exclusive, because a lot of times you find a Pride that did an ad and everybody was an uproar because it was purely racist. H and M will do uh you know the monkey? Yeah, exactly. If were people in the decision maker in their in their companies, this would not even be happening. And that's what you need. Allies. Not people that will say behind closed doors how much they love you, but come out

and say this is how much I love her. People I will say, I thank how much I love you, Thank you so much for joining me on the show, to such an auto, having you in mind everybody, I don't think, well let that after this, thank you so much.
