1. Trevor Noah kisses Dua Lipa as he quits 'The Daily Show'

Sometimes one kiss is all it takes … to get you to quit your job. Trevor Noah has announced his surprise exit from The Daily Show after seven years, which came just as rumors emerged he might be dating Dua Lipa. The Daily Mail published photos of the comedian kissing the "Levitating" singer after a "cozy date night" grabbing dinner in New York City on Wednesday. "It was clear they were into each other and sat close together throughout the meal," a source told the Daily Mail. "They left together and walked, stopping for long embraces and on the second kiss with hugs." So is the timing a total coincidence? Yeah, probably, though who among us wouldn't trade employment for making out with Dua Lipa? Noah reportedly plans to spend more time levitating.
