Trevor Noah is helping out his own team in a big way.

The 36-year-old Daily Show host is pitching in by personally paying the salaries of 25 furloughed staff members amid the global health crisis, Variety confirmed on Thursday (April 30).

He reportedly informed crew members that he will continue to pay their salaries until production “begins to ramp back up in the television industry.”

“These are the people who have been on the show with Trevor from day one and help him put on the show. Trevor is personally covering their salaries until the production business opens again. He respects his crew tremendously and feels it’s only right that they get thru this together,” a source told the publication.

He has been hosting a remote version of The Daily Show, called The Daily Social Distancing Show With Trevor Noah, from his home amid the pandemic.

Jon Stewart is all smiles at the final taping of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart on Thursday (August 6).

The 52-year-old comedian bid farewell alongside special guests and correspondents Steve Carell, Olivia Munn, Stephen Colbert, Kristen Schaal, Aasif Mandvi, John Hodgman, Jessica Williams, Hasan Minhaj, John Oliver, Jordan Klepper, and future host Trevor Noah.

Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band were also in attendance to cap the show with a special musical tribute.

“An artist I really admire once said that he thinks of his career as a long conversation with the audience, a dialog. Nothing ends, it’s a pause in the conversation,” Jon expressed during his final moments. “So rather than saying goodbye or goodnight, I’m just going say I’m going to go get a drink. And I’m sure I’ll see you guys before I leave.”

Olivia Munn discusses Amy Chua‘s controversial “Tiger Mom” parenting approach – and her own upbringing – in this new clip from The Daily Show.

The 30-year-old actress and Daily Show correspondent took viewers on a tour of her childhood home, including a look at the refrigerator where she would be disciplined if she got into trouble.

“Quote from my Mom on @TheDailyShow 2nite: ‘I don’t hit you. I only GUESSture when I talk,’” Olivia wrote on her Twitter account before the show aired.

Former videogame show host Olivia Munn is the newest regular correspondent on Jon Stewart‘s The Daily Show.

But did she score the gig because she’s a woman? (Jezebel claims The Daily Show has a “woman problem”.)

“When I go into this situation, I don’t think, ‘Oh, great. I’m a woman. This is awesome,’” Olivia told HollywoodLife. “I think, ‘F— yeah, I worked my a– off and somebody recognized it. This is great!’”

“We’re all human beings in this world,” she continued. “We’re all trying to make it from point A to point B, and just trying to f—ing make it. So I think it’s really a disservice to all women when there are women out there who try to compartmentalize us as human beings, saying ‘women’ and ‘men,’ because I’m just out there… I never tried to use anything besides my own sweat and blood and talent to get somewhere.”

Rachel McAdams is purple-licious in a ruffled 3.1 Philip Lim dress during an appearance on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart on Thursday (August 13) in New York City’s Upper West Side.

Her and Eric Bana‘s new movie, The Time Traveler’s Wife, opens in theaters TODAY (August 14).

At Wednesday’s premiere, Rachel told People that she’s looking forward to becoming a mom. “Having a few [kids] would be great,” she said. “[I'm] looking forward to it someday.”
