Trevor Noah sings in solidarity with Italy, and it didn't go well

Inspired by the Italian folk who have been singing and jazzing up in their balconies as the whole country is put under lockdown amid the COVID-19 crisis, standup comedian and TV show host Trevor Noah attempted to do something on similar lines, though with limited success.

Inspired by the Italian folk who have been singing and jazzing up in their balconies as the whole country is put under lockdown amid the COVID-19 crisis, standup comedian and TV show host Trevor Noah attempted to do something on similar lines, though with limited success. The funnyman posted an Instagram clip of himself standing in a balcony overseeing the busy New York streets.

In the video, he began by saying that "I've been inspired by Italy and I figure, why don't we do this in New York. We are also neighbours out here, let's be together". Once Noah is done talking, he proceeds to sing. However, just after a couple of lines and the comedian is hurled with expletives by someone who tells him to "shut up", after which the brief performance comes to an abrupt end.

The rib-tickler scored more than half a million likes in just a few hours over the post. (ANI)
