During the 2026 Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, host Trevor Noah went viral after an offhand remark had him being accused of insider trading.
The clip, which has been seen close to 17 million times on X at the time of writing, has Noah stopping in the middle of welcoming viewers and strangely saying the word “potato” several times.
The host then explained he did it to make sure a certain option won on Polymarket, a cryptocurrency-based prediction platform.
