Trevor Noah's subtle dig at Will Smith
The 2022 Grammy Awards took place on Sunday night, and Trevor Noah did a fantastic job of hosting the ceremony.
There's one particular moment that has everyone talking, and it features a very subtle dig at Will Smith.
Trevor told the star-studded crowd, "It is going to be such a beautiful evening."
"Don’t even think of it as an award show, this is a concert where we’re giving out awards."
"We’re going to be listening to some music, we’re going dancing, we’re going to be singing, we’re going to be keeping people’s names out of our mouths."

The comment was a clear dig at Will Smith, who shouted, "Keep my wife's name out of your fu**ing mouth," when Chris Rock made a joke about Jada on stage at the Oscars.
If you've somehow forgotten, Will stormed on stage and slapped Chris across the face for comments he made about Jada's buzzcut.
And Noah wasn't the only one to reference the altercation during last night's Grammys.
Questlove was presenting an award on stage when he said, "I'm going to present this award and I trust that you people will stay 500 feet away from me."
He was the artist who won Best Documentary at the Oscars last weekend; the award Chris took to the stage to present.

LeVar Burton also referenced the incident when introducing comedian Nate Bargatze.
He said, "Our next presenter is a comedian, if you know what I mean. So I need to caution everybody; remain in your seats and keep your hands to yourself."
Nate came out wearing a helmet, "They said comedians have to wear these now at award shows during their joke parts."
