U.S. President Donald Trump has fired a scathing attack at Trevor Noah, the host of the 68th Annual Grammy Awards, after a joke at his expense went viral. During the ceremony on February 1, 2026, Noah made a joke about Trump wanting an island to hang out with Bill Clinton, referencing Jeffrey Epstein's private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Trump took to Truth Social to defend himself, calling the Grammys 'virtually unwatchable' and labeling Noah a 'total loser.' In his statement, Trump clarified that he has never visited Epstein Island, which is also known as Little Saint James, and has never been accused of being there by the media. He threatened to sue Noah for defamation, stating that he will 'have some fun' with the comedian. Trump also criticized CBS, the network that airs the Grammys, and hinted at a possible lawsuit against them as well. The joke by Noah came during Billie Eilish's acceptance speech for Song of the Year. Eilish won the award for her track 'Wildflower,' and Noah's comment was met with a mixture of laughter and applause from the audience. Epstein Island has been a subject of controversy in the past, with Trump denying any involvement with the convicted sex offender. The island was owned by Epstein until his death in 2019. The U.S. President has consistently denied any wrongdoing, and his team has repeatedly stated that he has never visited the island.
