Comedian Trevor Noah showers Beckham, Drogba with praise

Former host of The Daily Show Trevor Noah took to his Instagram account to share pictures of himself with soccer legends David Beckham and Didier Drogba.

Noah, who bid an emotional farewell to fans of The Daily Show last week, wrote about how Beckham and Drogba were among his childhood idols.


“As a 15-year-old, I destroyed so many pairs of shoes trying to figure out how to bend the ball like this man. I never figured it out, but yesterday he promised to buy me a new pair of predators. A true legend and absolute gentleman @davidbeckham,” he wrote.

The South African-born comedian who is now based in the US praised Drogba for being one of the greatest footballers.

“Find me a defender who says he could contain this man and I’ll find you a liar. What a fun surprise to bump into my brother @didierdrogba. One of the greatest strikers the world has ever seen!”
