Trevor Noah kicked off the sixty fifth annual Grammy Awards with lots of humor, and a little bit meet-cute too … linking up Adele with Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson for the very first time.

The comic — who was again within the internet hosting seat once more — ran by means of a reasonably zippy monologue that hopscotched over lots of large celebs, together with Harry Kinds, Taylor Swift, Lizzo, Beyoncé and Adele … the final of which he honed in on for an official introduction.

Test it out … TN says he’d completed his homework on tonight’s nominees, and skim someplace that Adele had by no means gotten a face-to-face with the wrestler-turned-actor.

At first, Trevor made it seem to be he did not even have Dwayne available, however then trotted the dude out anyway — which completely caught Adele without warning. She acquired up and gave him a hug/kiss … and DJ even plopped himself down at her desk because the digicam panned away.

In the case of the opposite jokes … he mentioned Harry Kinds was within the distinctive place to have panties thrown at him onstage and presumably put on them afterward, and he additionally jabbed at Taylor Swift by flipping her ‘Anti-Hero’ music on its head … whereas taking a shot at Southwest.
