Donald Trump has threatened to sue TV host and comedian Trevor Noah following a “joke” at the Grammy Awards.The President accused Noah, who compered the awards ceremony on Sunday night, of falsely suggesting he had visited Jeffrey Epstein’s private island.Mr Trump branded the South African-born host “pathetic, talentless” and a “total loser” in his response.”It looks like I’ll be sending my lawyers to sue this poor, pathetic, talentless, dope of an MC, and suing him for plenty $,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.The President firmly rejected any claim he had ever been to Little St James, where Epstein carried out years of abuse against young women and girls.Noah made the quip while hosting Sunday night’s ceremony, telling the audience that every artist wanted to win Song of the Year “almost as much as Trump wants Greenland, which makes sense because, since Epstein’s gone, he needs a new island to hang out with Bill Clinton”.But Mr Trump insisted the comedian had got his facts wrong.”Noah said, INCORRECTLY about me, that Donald Trump and Bill Clinton spent time on Epstein Island,” he blasted.”WRONG!!! I can’t speak for Bill, but I have never been to Epstein Island, nor anywhere close, and until tonight’s false and defamatory statement, have never been accused of being there, not even by the Fake News Media.”The US Department of Justice released three million additional documents relating to the convicted paedophile on Friday.Mr Trump’s name appears 38,000 times in the files, alongside other prominent figures including Lord Mandelson and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.Little St James, Epstein’s privately owned island in the US Virgin Islands, became notorious as the location where he trafficked and abused underage victims.EPSTEIN FILES – READ MORE:Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie mentioned in files as Sarah Ferguson invited Jeffrey Epstein to Andrew’s partyDonald Trump declares himself ‘absolved’ in statement on latest batch of Jeffrey Epstein filesAndrew Mountbatten-Windsor seen looking troubled as King’s disgraced brother appears in latest Epstein filesMr Trump has faced ongoing controversy over his former friendship with Epstein – but claims the newly released documents have cleared him.The DoJ said it had found no credible information that would justify further investigation into Mr Trump’s connection to the sex trafficker.Elsewhere at the do, several performers used the spotlight to rail against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) amid Mr Trump’s deportation campaign.Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny, who won Album of the Year, told a cheering audience: “Before I say thanks to God, I’m going to say ‘Ice out’. We’re not savages, we’re not animals, we’re not aliens. We are humans and we are Americans.”Billie Eilish, wearing an “Ice out” pin after winning Song of the Year for Wildflower, declared: “No one is illegal on stolen land. F**k Ice.”But conservative influencer Emily Austin, who was in the audience on Sunday, went viral after sharing a video clip of her non-plussed reaction to the A-lister’s remarks.”F**k Ice, oh my god, I’m so edgy, I said f**k Ice, ha ha ha,” she said, mocking Eilish’s words.Ms Austin went on to tell GB News the controversial pins were handed out to celebrities as they turned up to the do.”A lot of these celebrities showed up in regular attire… once you approach the red carpet, there are folks at the Grammys handing out Ice out pins,” she said.”This was clearly intentional.
