Netizens find it hard to believe, though, as many people argue that Trevor Noah was just conversing with a friend. Below are some of the reactions:

@kevyngbash defended the comedian:

"This does not show any romantic relationships which is what u want to insinuate. You should do better."

@BuhleTheFirst exclaimed:

"Regardless of whether it's true or not, why is it still such a big deal that someone is gay? Why is people's sexuality still taboo? If he's gay - yay. If he's bi - yay. If he's straight - yay! Because it's fine either way."
