Trevor Noah, the renowned South African comedian and host of “The Daily Show,” recently shared his insights on celebrity friendships in the entertainment industry. In an interview on the ‘SmartLess’ podcast, Noah discussed the peculiar dynamics of forming connections with fellow famous faces.
Trevor Noah expressed his bemusement at the way celebrities often approach friendship. He recounted instances where he would attend events in America, courtesy of his role on ‘The Daily Show,’ and encounter fellow stars who insisted on exchanging phone numbers.
Their enthusiasm suggested genuine camaraderie, but the reality turned out quite different.

“I always found it strange that people would try to be friends just because they’re in a similar space,” Noah mused. “I thought I was making so many friends, I thought these people were so friendly and it was amazing.
“And then I would hear nothing from them. I would message them, and they wouldn’t respond at all.”
According to Noah, the fickleness of Hollywood friendships often revolves around phone numbers. Celebrities frequently change their contact details, rendering previous connections obsolete.
Noah humorously remarked, “By the way, people in Hollywood change their numbers all the time. Everybody has a new number all the time!”
However, the situation took an even more amusing turn when he encountered the same individuals at subsequent events. “This has happened a few times,” Noah shared. “I would meet the same person, maybe like a year later.
“And they were like, ‘Oh my God, Trevor, we gotta hang out, let me get your number.’ And I would say, ‘I think you have my number,’ but they would insist, ‘Oh, I changed phones…’ And when I put my number in their phone, it would just pop up. They already had it!”
