Trevor, who isn’t afraid to tackle the hard topics has seen him in the hot seat recently. You may remember some of his controversial to-date:
India-Pakistan relations
According to BBC News, Trevor commented that a war between the two countries would be "the most entertaining", adding "it would also be the longest war of all time - another dance number!" He has since apologised, stating that his joke went viral instead of the conflict.
Actually if you watch my stand up you'll see that I did make jokes after my mother was shot in the head. As a comedian I use comedy to process pain and discomfort in my world but I am sorry that this hurt you and others, that's not what I was trying to do. https://t.co/OuVnkHyIfG
