Trevor Noah, Stephen Colbert, Conan, and a few other white comedians get trolled by Americans, saying their jokes are not funny.
The SA-born comedian trended as the claim divided Twitter users.
This isn’t the first time Noah gets dragged for serving “unfunny” jokes, but hearing it from the Americans caused a stir on Mzansi Twitter.
While a few South Africans supported the claim, others defended the 3-time Grammy host.
Conan is the funniest guy in this picture.
Many of these guys were hilarious at one point in time. Colbert was awesome on comedy central. Bill Maher once in a while gets a laugh out of me.
Trevor Noah is horrendous but James Corden has literally never made me laugh. God awful.

Defenders be like:
Trevor Noah didn’t make it to America by playing Hockey but by Comedy , if he was another broke guy he will be the funniest guy ever but the moment you exceed the level of success fellow black people set for you then you are no longer good enough. ..we saw with Uncle Waffles too pic.twitter.com/e7qqq71qBa

Comedy is like music, you could be an award winning artist but not everyone will enjoy your music. Not finding Trevor Noah funny doesn’t mean he’s not funny to other people. Hence he has sold out shows

Nah, I disagree, have you watched early Trevor Noah’s material?! As an African it hits DIFFERENT! The rest sure I can agree but don’t do Trevor like that https://t.co/eSTA4QL4QL
