>> announcer: coming to you from new york city, the only city in america, it's "the daily show." tonight: trump's latest scandal. kamala in korea. and iman. this is "the daily show," with trevor noah. ( cheers and applause ) >> trevor: hey, what's going on, everybody? welcome to "the daily show."

i'm trevor noah. thank you so much for tuning in, and thank you for coming out in person. thank you so much for coming out, everybody. oh, man. this is going to be fun. take a seat, take a seat. let's do this everyone. we have a really great show. florida is hurricane bonding. donald trump tried to overthrow the government using diet coke. and ronny chieng facing down kim jong-un. plus, our guest tonight is an international icon. iman is joining us on the show, everybody. looking forward to that. let's do this, people, let's just straight into today's headlines. ( applause ) >> trevor: all right, before we get into the big stories, let's catch up on a few other things going on in the world. let's kick things off in the public health news. the f.d.a. has issued new guidelines as to which foods can be labeled "healthy." and that now includes nuts and salmon. and as much as i appreciate that,s i didn't need the

government to tell me that salmon is healthy. we all know that, because that's the thing people order at weddings when they want to let you know they're better than everyone else. "i'll have the salmon." in international news, the queen of denmark has stripped her grandchildren of their royal titles. yeah. because she says she doesn't want them to be limited by their royal duties. which is the most posh way ever to say, bitch, get a job. ( laughter ) yeah, those grandkids must have been so grateful. "wow, grandma, thanks for not forcing me to be a prince anymore. i really hated all the attention and the free jewelry. i love being known as the grandkid formerly known as prince, thank you." it's so funny how the british monarchy had so much drama, the other monarchies are looking around, "maybe we should shut should shit down." in gaming news, the maker of the card game uno, has come out

officially and updated its rules to clarify that you cannot play a "draw 2" on top of another "draw 2 "to make the next person draw 4. draw 2, you take it, that's it. that's it. i agree with you. who makes-- who makes these rules? i will say it's cool that they're doing it. if you ask me, we need to fix more game rules. forget uno. i think that works. monopoly needs prison reform. my brother get, like, nine turns buying up all the property while my thimble is in jail. no justice! no peace. let's move on to the biggest stories of the day. starting with the fallout from florida. the flooding the streets, destroying homes and infrastructure and leaving millions without power. now, the good news is that people took all the advance warning seriously, so despite the destruction, there were very few casualties. and as the storm recedes, we're

learning about some amazing ways that the people of florida have pulled together while the storm was raging >> over my shoulder here, you can see the incredible power of hurricane ian. now comes, as we have already seen, the selfless power of people. >> neighbors, friends, even complete strangers doing whatever they can to help. rescues on shore and on land. firefighters helping a woman escape floodwaters, but the fire department also thanking local jet skiers for helping out, writing, "sometimes we need a ride to the rescue ourselves." in bonita beach, one good samaritan braving the elements to save a cat trapped outside on an air conditioner. >> many of the sailboats are on their side. there was a guy that went on to get his three pets off that were still on the boat. in st. petersburg, staff at a botanical garden hunkering down with flamingos to see them through the storm. >> trevor: wow.

( applause ) wow. that is amazing. that's so nice. just to see, like, everybody coming together. you know. helping, cats, helping upon the flamingos. it's nice, but do flamingos need more helps than humans in a hurricane? it's weird, "don't worry flamingos,s we'll protect you." "we're the water bird, dude, we'll protect you." but this is all amazing. the response to the storm is so powerful that it led to something we've never seen before-- jet skiers being responsible. yeah. imagine that, getting rescued by a jet ski is so awesome. no matter how emotional and exhausted you are, you can't stay that way on jet skier. thank you, thank you for saving my life! sled it! crank that diesel, bitch! and th as for the people rescuig the cat, that is true selflessness. that is somebody who is

going,"look, we lost everything. our house is destroyed, we don't have power but--" and hear me out on this-- "what if we also had our faces scratched to shit. what to you think? it really is beautiful to see. while florida is recovering from this storm, there is still the storm that is always hitting america-- donald j. trump. >> new revelations on the final days of former president donald trump's presidency. in reporting provided to cnn from a forthcoming book by "new york times" reporter maggie haberman trump repeatedly told aide he would refuse to leave the house. haberman's book says trump told one aide, "i am not going to leave." he quizzed everyone around him about how to stay in power. among those he reportedly asked, the valet who delivered a diet coke when trump pressed a red button on his oval office desk. ( laughter ).

>> trevor: oh, man, that is so much pressure. to put on your soda guy. he asks the valet, "soda boy, i need you to make me the emperor of america. how do i do it?" "i just got a coke zero, man." you know, if i'm honest, i think it is lesweird to get advice from your diet coke valet and more weird to have a diet coke valet. i mean, once you've got him, you might as well get his input. "what do you think about it, how to overtake a country." the real travesty to me is trump didn't follow through with his plan of just not leaving. that would have been exciting. yeah, i would have loved to have seen the f.b.i. chasing trump around the white house like an episode of "scooby-doo." he chases him through one door, and another door, and then they're being chased by ghosts. ruh-roh. ruh-roh. everybody is saying ruh-roh.

so much danger, so much danger. let's move on from the previous administration to the current one. as you all know, joe biden is the president of the united states. but what if i told you there's also a vice president of the united states. yeah, it's true, it's true. her name is kamala harris. what! i can hear you now, fthat's the case, trevor, how come i've never seen her. what are you going to tell me next, slender man is real and i should kill my family? okay." i can't speak to the veracity of the slender man, but i do have proof kamala harris exists and she was just spotted in south korea. >> vice president kamala harris arrived in south korea for the last leg of her four-day visit to asia. she paid a visit to the demilitarize zone that. it is to demonstrate america's commitment to its asian allies. >> trevor: well played, kamala, well played. if there's one way to remind

people you exist, it's to stand at the border between north and south korea. now everyone knows your name. it's the same way no one knew i existed in high school, nobody, until the day i streaked naked across the football field. from then on, everyone knew one-testicle trev was in our school. they knew me. they all knew me. because this is such a major moment on vice president harris' trip, we go live to our very own ronny chieng. who is in the demilitarize zone. ronny, how is it going over there? >> it's going very well. thanks so much for sending me here. great assignment. not racist at all. anyway, vice president was just here, and she just walked up to the border with giant binoculars and stared at north korea like a geopolitical pervert. honestly, trevor, i don't get it. why is she here? why am i here? why is anybody here? what are you guys looking for? do you think you're going to see

something all the generals and sattelites missed. "look, look, they forgot to lock the gate. let's go! let's go now." a bunch of idiots. honestly, what is she looking3 at? what is it? let me look for myself. look, it's kim jong-un. looks like he's watching me on "the daily show." maybe that guy is not all that bad after all, hey, hey, kimmy, follow my back on i.g., man. anyway, the vice president was here to strengthen america's alliance with south korea against north korea. and let's just see how that went. >> an embarrassing gaffe by vice president harris today when she affirmed america's alliance with the wrong korea. >> so the united states shares a very important relationship, which is an alliance with the republic of north korea, and it is an alliance that is strong and enduring. ( laughter ). >> wow!

wow! you think north korea is south korea? so i guess all asian countries look the same to you, huh? madam vice president. what's next, you're going to mix me up with simu liu. seriously, can you-- could you do that, please. because i-- i would totally be fine with that. no, no, no. i'm just joking. i'm just joking. everyone, we're just joking, okay. madam vice president. nobody give her a hard time about this or we won't see her again for another six months. back to you, trevor. hey, kim, yo, yo! hey, why don't you check out my comedy special to netflix. use trevor's password, it's... >> trevor: ronny chieng, thank you so much. ronny chieng, everybody. ( applause ) before we go, i was-- i was

chatting to roy wood jr. yesterday when we finished the show. and he reminds me that it has been seven years since we start "the daily show with trevor noah." yeah, this week is our anniversary ( applause ) one of the-- one of the overriding feelings i found myself experiencing throughout the night and even today waking up was a feeling of gratitude, you know. ronny, like the journey, we've been on together has been wild. roy, all the correspondents, everyone. there are so many people who make this thing come together. and i want to say thank you to the audience for an amazing seven years. it's been wild. it's been truly wild. ( applause ) i remember when... i remember when-- i remember

when we first started-- and you remember this, ronny-- it was, you know, so many people didn't believe in us. it was a crazy bet to make. i mean, i still didn't think it was a crazy choice, you know, this random african bringing a chinese guy from malaysia. >> chinese guy are accent on american tv. >> trevor: yeah, man, and what a journey it's been. every single one of you who comes here to support us every single day, everybody who watches the show and it's grown all around the world. i recently went to india for the first time and there are people there who have supported everything we've done. and i found myself filled with gratitude for the journey. it's been-- it's been absolutely amazing. it's something that i never expected. and i found myself thinking throughout the time, you know, everything we've gone through. the trump presidency, the pandemic, just the journey of, you know, the more pandemic. ( laughter ) and i realized that after the

seven years, my time is up. i... yeah. but in the most-- in most beautiful way, honestly. i've loved hosting this show. it's been one of my greatest challenges. it's been one of my greatest joys. i've loved trying foigure out,000 mouthow to make people n when the stories were the shittiest on the worst days. we've laughed together, we've cried together. but after seven years i feel like it's time. i spent two years in my apartment not on the road-- you know, standup was done. and when i got back out there again, i realized there's another part of my life that i want to carry on exploring. i miss learning other languages. i miss going to other countries and putting on shows. i miss just being everywhere, doing everything. and i'm really grateful to every single person who is here, even the people who aren't here right

now, because they went on to do great things who went on to help us do this thing. you know, it's a weird thing to say. i've never been good at good-byes. it's not instant. i'm not disappearing. don't worry. if i owe you money, i'll still pay you. ( laughter ) and i'm really gr grateful, you know, to a network who believed in this random comedian nobody knew on this side of the world. south africans knew and loved me, yeah. you know. and yeah, you know, paramount has been amazing. viacomcbs has been amazing, the previous team, kent and sara and michelle and doug. and i've been lucky enough to e doing multiple projects with them and inspired by new ways to express myself, whether hosting white house correspondents' dinner, different standup shows around the world. the point is i want to say thank you to you, and to you who watch

this, and to you who come, and sometimes you do both. because, man, i never-- i never dreamed that i would be here. i sort of felt like a charlie in the chocolate factory. i came in for a tour of what the previous show was, and then the next thing i know, i was handed the keys. but i couldn't have done it without you, and i wouldn't have wanted to do it without you. and so we'll figure out the timings and the whens. we'll still be here for the time being. but all i can say is, thank you very much. you've-- ( applause ) one of the best experiences of my life. ( applause ) ( cheers and applause )

♪ a once in a generation leap for the iphone camera. ♪ the most advanced display in a smartphone. ♪

and... for the first time... iphone can detect a crash and call for help. ♪ >> trevor: one of the most frustrating things about the internet for me is that-- i don't know if it's creative people who do this or it's encouraged them.

but it makes it feel like people are less inclined to listen and more inclined to want to immediately, like, dunk on a person or an idea or a-- do you know what i mean? but they don't engage anymore. people don't engage. they want to be, "ha! what about? what about?" the reason i talk about that is because of the story in iran that's happening right now. i am sure you all know it, but if you don't, what's happening in iran is many people are going into the streets, predominantly women-- protesting in the streets against the government of iran and against what they call the morality police that has been getting stricter and stricter every single regime in iran, where they force women, you know, to wear the hijab and how they wear it is important. basically random dudes policing women. oftentimes there's no rhyme, there's no reason, they harass women. now after a woman named masa amini was taken into custody by

the iranian morality police, she died, right. she was 22 years old and she died. women in iran have poured out into the streets. they said we're not taking this shit anymore. it's one of the biggest movements seen in iran. ( applause ) but what's so disappointing is seeing-- and i guess it's the internet. but you see people who now use this as an opportunity to dunk on a religion that they hate, you know. so they're like,s, oh, so now we're saying the hijab is bad? yeah, you see, islam--" no, no, if you understood what was happening, if you took the time to read beyond a tweet or headline, what you understand is those women in iran are not saying we're against people practicing their religion. what they're saying is we are against the government forcing everybody to practice one religion and practice it in one way. that's what they're saying. ( applause ) there's a big difference between

the two. like, i've always believed that. have whatever religion you want. worship however you want, as long as it doesn't hurt somebody else, yeah, that's your religion. that's fine. but once it becomes a government saying you have to and you shouldn't and this is how you have to do it you know what i mean? it bec becomes this big thing we they're oppressing people as well. there are even stories where they'll say, "the hijab wasn't on tight enough, the scarf wasn't tight enough. whochment is defining this and why more importantly. you get the people in the internet "burn them everywhere." i see what you are doing. you're being an asshole. that's what you're doing. ( applause ) that's what they should have on social media as well. they should also verify assholes. like "oh, verfiedz asshole.

now i know what i'm dealing with." then i wouldn't click. i would be like, "what are the assholes saying? oh, that's an interesting point."

( applause ) >> trevor: welcome back to "the daily show" show. my guest tonight is a legendary supermodel and philanthropist. she is here to talk about her new docuseries that talks about black models' impact on the modeling industry. the first two episodes are available right now on youtube with new episodes to follow. >> if it wasn't for them, we would have been overlooked. >> we can't move forward without black creativity. >> the new generation, they want a revolution. >> how can you not love this melanin? >> trevor: please welcome iman! ( cheers and applause ) >> trevor: the icon, the legend, the face known all over the world. iman welcome to "the daily show." >> okay, so i was listening to

because i'm a huge fan of the show, and i loved that bit about your grandmother thinking you're famous. >> trevor: thank you very much. thank you so much. >> just like an african grandmother, yeah. >> trevor: they're all the same. >> they're all the same. that name now is famous. >> trevor: well, i feel like your name could be famous because you are synonymous with the fashion industry. you're synonymous beyond the fashion industry. when i heard you were making a docu-series about the impact that black models have made on not just the fashion industry but america as a whole. i was really intriged and surprised and shocked. people said we understand maybe how black people influenced fashion, but black models in the world of civil rights. how did you even know about the story and want to tell it? >> well, youtube and the directors contacted me during covid, and they said that they wanted to do this docu-series about black beauty and specifically the history of black models. >> trevor: right. >> and i said to them, "what will you bring to the table that is new?"

and they said there is no documentary on black beauty or black models ever. this is the first. automatically, of course, i said, "yes, i'm on board." what i really wanted to make sure is i wanted to-- to highlight, not just the trial and tribulations of black models in this industry, but the joy and the celebration. >> trevor: i love that. i love that. i love that. because i feel like that is-- that is the journey, you know. trial, tribulations but the joy as well, which is oftentimes overlooked in many stories. >> exactly, exactly. and, also, as culture. i mean, the cry du jour in the 60s was, "black is beautiful." that hasn't changed. we are now just a tribe of black beauties. >> trevor: i love that. i love that. ( applause ) you're now showcasing a generation from the current models all the way through to many of the pioneers.

>> the naomis, the luna. >> trevor: exactly. when you look at the industry through the lens that only you can, do you think it's changed enough? have you seen change that you're proud of? and how far do you still want it to go? >> what's been happening in the industry is like when i started in 1976, a lot of designers were using black models. but then, it happened, like, in 2013, there was this article in the "new york times" that said blonde leading the blonde, and the blackout of the black model. for six years, in 2013, for six years, none of the designers have used any black models. >> trevor: wow. >> so i was shocked by it. by then i retired from modeling. i was doing iman cosmetics. but when i saw that article, naomi campbell and i and bethann hardison, joined forces and wrote to the designers of the america and the european designers to talk about, specifically, about this issue. what is happening? how come there were more black

models in the 70s and 80s, and in 2013 -- >> that's crazy. >> nobody was using them. what happened was a lot of designers were having casting agents who do the casting for them. the casting agents now become the people with the power. >> trevor: the gatekeepers, yeah. >> and they said to the agents, "we are not seeing black models this season." as if they were a trend. yeah. so we were-- what we were trying to talk about was not calling them out or cancelling them out. we were trying to call them in to understand, are you aware on your behalf, on your name, what these casting agents are doing? before i call you any names, i just want you to know first. >> trevor: i love that, i love that. did they respond accordingly? >> it was palpable the change. >> trevor: i love that. >> palpable the change. so it's like if you see it, say something. so basically -- >> trevor: i love that. >> that's what it was.

>> trevor: legend, and legend and legend and legend. from the beginning to the middle to the end, even when you're out of the modeling industry, you're now telling these stories. and you know what, i didn't know so many parts of your journey. for instance, starting a cosmetics brand when black women weren't getting any cosmetics brand focusing on them. you paved the way for so many brands, like fenty, that are doing so well, that are growing everywhere. if you could change one thing about the modeling industry instantly, what is the one thing you would change? >> i would change the decision makers. the people on the top should be exclusive. because a lot of times you find a prada did an ad and everybody was in an uproar because it was purely racist. h&m, would do the monky -- >> yeah. >> if there were people in the decision makers in their companies this would not even be happening. and that's what you need, allies. not people that will say behind closed doors how much they love you. but come out and say, "this is how much i love her." ( applause )

>> trevor: i will say to your face how much i love you. thank you so much for joining me on the show. such an honor having you. iman, everybody. we'll take a quick break. we'll be right back after this. thank you so much. she's not kat medina delivering pizza in her 2003 hatchback... ...she's kat medina, bringer of sustenance, provider of all things greasy and caloric. ♪ >> trevor: well, that's our show for tonight. charlemagne is coming up next. now here tyour moment of zen.
