I like that the whole interview wasn't just about his transition. Most interviewers only talk about that as if that's the only interesting thing about him.
But I like how Trevor briefly mentions it while also talking to him like he's a normal human being.
Really wonderful interview 🙌🏼
I think it kinda caught Elliot off guard. I think they came on thinking this is the conversation, and now we're talking about VR workouts.
she isn’t normal tho
@@buddy510 I'm not even gonna try to explain to you on how many levels this comment is idiotic
@@buddy510 'normal' is overrated
I'd use it on politicians. I heard a rumor that you tell the truth, always.
That would be freaking amazing!
I’d wholeheartedly agree with you. Politicians and cops.
They will learn sign language
I heard a rumor that you worked for the people's best interests.
I’d add landlords to the list. “I heard a rumor you have to keep prices affordable”.
He is literally glowing. His acting in Umbrella Academy is phenomenal and I can see these happiness oozing out 🌸🌸

Trevor Noah wasn’t in Umbrella Academy?
This is a confused girl. Don't try and gaslight us
@Myself no
Love how the interview divulged into a talk about VR was not expecting that. Also it’s so awesome to see Elliott so happy and just content and also kudos to Trevor for just having the interview be fun and not hyper focused on Elliott’s transition
ikr? he glossed over it but didn't reduce elliot to just "the trans person"
@@IsisAlv wish more late night hosts or interviewers would take the same approach
Didn't bring up the abdominal implants though. You think that would've came up.
i love how the crowd went WILD for him when he entered the stage.
and the conversation was so funny and cute.
Well they are told too!

@@zax-ky4wt what’s with all these people seeing a lady on stage? I only saw guys. Was she hot?
I love Trevor mentions Elliot's transition and then asks other questions so it's not just about his transition.
Yeah and asking about his workout routine in a way is extra validating because it is a way of like, evaluating him as a man (in a positive way), as one would ask any other bulked up superhero actor.
I am confused...does Elliot Paige now have toxic white male privilege?
@Chadder His
@@zax2004 she still has female chromosomes. Biologically, she is and will always be female. Stop the cap.
@@marc416 doesn't matter what his chromosomes are.
Elliot always has been a bit socially awkward. That has not changed. But I'm hoping to see him get more comfortable on interviews as time goes on. I might be reading too much into it, but I think we can tell he still feels a bit self-conscious. Why wouldn't he, really? When so much people feel the need to post comments like many we see here... I hope he stays off social media.
Loved that, of all things, he mentioned VR out of the blue, though! 😄
Great to see celebrities help making VR mainstream.
His character is same. Makes you want to watch him.
@Myself do you also go around correcting people talking about Metta World Peace? People change their names.
@Myself Elliot.
@@breathejuliet390 100% agree! I mentioned it, because I'm the same. My awkwardness manifests pretty much the same way. I guess it takes one to know one 😅
its just a bashful kinda charm. i like to think Elliot is as comfortable (or can become as comfortable) as he would like to be.
I love that being Viktor is just a "detail" in the show, it's not the whole story of the character, it doesn't prevent him from having an amazing storyline and a complex background. Too often the trans/homosexual/female (it tends to get better on that part) is only that, trans/homosexual or female and I was glad to see it wasn't the case here.
Because if it wasn’t for that ridiculous delusion, nobody would give a flying F about any of these “trans” people
That’s the beauty of having a trans actor consult with a trans writer to write the transition for a character 😊 I hear so many cis-het people who either don’t support us or don’t know better say we make everything about our gender. We don’t. Society does.
I would be willing to bet money Elliot and Thomas talked about how they wished their own comings out (coming outs?) would’ve gone as part of the writing process for Viktor’s.
Viktor’s coming out is honestly like a dream/ideal coming out if you ask me. I mean not the whole kugelblitz happening simultaneously part 😁 but like how he comes out to his siblings and their various reactions.
I’m trans nonbinary and nothing would’ve made me happier than to have a reaction like Five’s. “Truly happy for you… now back to this other thing we were talking about.” It really can be that simple. I really wish it were that simple. Sadly for most of us there are many conversations that very much don’t go that way.
@@NarwhalAcademy you are mentally ill, seek psychiatric help
@@jodo2785 I’m a therapist and my licensure board is aware I’m trans. And there’s zero problem with it because being trans isn’t a mental illness. AND even when it was classified as a mental illness, back before we had really done our due diligence in understanding trans people, the medically recognized best practice was still transition. Nice try though, bud.
That scream at the beginning 😆
Can't blame them
Elliot seems much more confident since transitioning and it makes me happy to see their happiness.
@Myself what?
I don’t see confidence … I see a human being very conflicted going against nature 🤷🏻♀️ it is not normal…
@Myself no, its the other way around
@@marthaluciagonzalez1945 You do you. Let others be.
Meh, he was pretty confident as a girl.
😭 I haven’t seen him in a minute. He looks so handsome. His voice changed so much 😭 so happy for him
Yeah he sounds like a growing teenager🤣 couldn't feel anything but proud for him 🥲
@@taccato7725 He really does it’s so cute 😭💕
She looks unhealthy
I'm three episodes into Umbrella Academy and they've handled Elliot Page's character Vanya transitioning to Viktor in a beautiful and perfect way
I love that his sibs are all supportive, but the different ways they express that support are all perfectly in line with their characters. Very well written, and you can see the cast's love and respect for Elliot shining through. It's really freakin' wholesome, and as someone with a trans sibling, it gives me the feels.
If you're only 3 episodes in and you've witnessed Vanya to Victor's transition then you missed an entire 2 seasons. Just a heads up.
Umbrella Academy is a very weird tv show. I had to check it out, it's gotten so much press.
The plot twists and sudden disclosures make it a very interesting show. The more I watched, the more I wanted to know.
Mr Page's character starts out quite bland, but builds and builds into a central, pivotal character. I'm happy he's in this.
Super powers:
When I was a kid, I wanted invisibility. Mostly to sneak into the girl's locker room.
When I was a young adult (20s through 30s) I wanted super speed, so I could get more things done, mostly at work.
Now that I'm over 50, I want teleportation. The buffets on cruise ships are free.
Why not all three??
@@johan.ohgren Too many super powers at once, and you have to deal with the kryptonite problem. Some random thing that is your ONE weakness and renders you useless, in pain, and sometimes makes you look weird.
I have arthritis so I'm already in pain and I've always looked weird, and I have to work every day not to be useless. With my luck my ONE weakness would be cheeseburgers.
One power at a time is enough.
bwhaha I get ya on the buffets.
I love how Trevor seems to meet his guest where they are (emotionally) making them feel comfortably.
“I heard a rumor” is my favorite power for sure. I’d do some damage with that one 😂
I love that no matter what happened with his relationship with his family they always used male pronouns "him and he", Allison for example was super mad at him yet still respected him enough to call him, "he/him".
Before he brought up Alison's power, I was thinking 'to instill understanding in others'
She*
@@krombopulost4699 the irony here is just too great
@@krombopulost4699 Allison did not bring up Allison's power; Emmy (who plays Allison) wasn't even there. I think you're confused.
So nice to see elliot smiling, its lovely to see him getting more and more comfortable 💖
Elliot Page is an amazing actor. I'm thrilled to follow his transition!
As a men we don't see a lot tbh
Wow that's nice opinion,@wendell c
I guess. I mean at this point it seems like everyone is transitioning into something
@Myself His
@Myself you misunderstand, Elliot page is a trans man, not a trans woman. I too get very annoyed when someone denies the overwhelming scientific evidence that clearly shows that a trans man is a man. Yet, it is important to understand that, even when we understand the science, simple mistakes can still lead us to incorrectly apply said science to create incorrect conclusions.
It is always important to review our own statements, for even the understanding that a trans man is a man doesn't help when we make the simple mistake of confusing a trans man for a trans woman. And in particular, one should not assume that someone else doesn't understand science when a mistake can easily lie outside of science, a mistake we might even make ourselves.
The VR thing sounds like one of those Japanese arcade games but in VR form.
A rhythm game yes. They're a really fun way to do some cardio and build lean muscle.
Maggie 🙄👋
I love that Elliot does Supernatural workouts!! I've been using it for over a year and it's a great workout!
Ellen page?
@@Blackshadow164 Elliot Page.
@@Blackshadow164 stop being obtuse. You know his name is now legally Elliot Page, and I was talking about the VR workout. So go be transphobic somewhere else.
@@Kleineganz well when she transitions back, what will you say?
@@Blackshadow164 He won't. Less than 1% of all trans people ever 'detransition,' and most of them do so because of societal pressure and abuse.
I'm 4 years into my own transition and I have never felt so comfortable in my own skin as I do now. I see Elliot gaining confidence in himself as he moves forward with transition, and I can tell he's now on testosterone.
It’s amazing how much more confident he seems now in interviews. Always loved work, so happy for him.
Looks like a nervous wreck, constantly on the verge of tears to me.
Slid over here after seeing this linked in a Supernatural fitness group. Great interview on many levels. Elliot seems genuinely delightful.
I'm a supernatural as well. favorite trainer Doc ❤️
When I first watched Umbrella Academy I thought Vanya was a boy. I was startled to discover she was a girl. I was also surprised to discover that Elliot had joined the world as himself. I was glad for his liberation.
@cirila of cintra what?
@cirila of cintra lol, you can't win this argument. you called him a "she" in your comment. so either you believe they are still a woman, in which case they shouldn't have to give back anything, or you admit that they are a male. pick one.
@@shivatrashakti9419 get ‘em lol. There’s comments like that everywhere. They don’t have anything to say, they just wanna be negative and unsupportive. 🙄
The male name 'Vanya' threw me off. So weird to use that for a female character. Same with Nikita. Because it doesn't feel like a female name to me I didn't get why they changed it. He could still be Vanya. Like I know men and women called Kim or Ilja. But I don't really mind the name change. Did mind season 3 being all over the place.
Theres not many Elliot interviews compared to the other cast members- BUT I LOVE that he chose to be on the daily show. Trevor and elliot are quite literally my two fav humans
Is Elliott Ellen's brother? Ellen is dead? Whats happening kanti?
Love it. It was not about his transition, but his work and some other stuff about Elliot.
He is describing his fitness routine and I keep visualizing the Paul's training scene from the movies Dune.
They have the body shield tech that screams VR
I hadn't thought of that, but you're absolutely right!
Season 3 was wonderful!! Great job!
I started cackling when he was explaining Supernatural because I was just trying to explain it to my coworkers yesterday 😅
Me going straight to my occulus app to check out supernatural.
I found the first two seasons captivating, I am struggling with finishing watching episode 1 of season 3.
I’m trans FTM and I love him!! Go Elliot!!! 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈
You love him because he's trance or you genuinely love him ?

i really needed that laughing pill. amazing conversation
I used to have such a crush before he transitioned. Thought, what a shame, once he did. Turns out, still crushing
Supernatural is awesome, love Elliott even more
I have seen all of season 3 of The umbrella Academy and it is amazing.
I'm jealous. My wifi is acting up.
I've had that show in my watchlist forever. Guess if they made a S3 it must be worth watching...
He looks so happy these days, totally in his element! Gotta love that. Very talented actor and what I'd dare call a pretty amazing human being!
Yeah, VR is great for workouts actually ^^ I wholeheartedly recommend Stride, it's my daily workout. The game is basically a Mirror's Edge knock-off, but a great one at that, so you do Parcours in VR, running by shaking your arms - it's just cool and a workout at the same time. (and better on Quest 2 than on PSVR, I started playing it on PSVR and then got the quest to play it with better controls, with sticks and stuff). I'm not selling Stride or anything, just a big fan ^^
Have you tried Supernatural? I've been doing it over a year now and it's also a ton of fun.
I love the daily show Trevor.. you are the most talented comedian from Southern Africa.....
I hope you will interview me one day, when I finally achieve my dreams of being the first musician from Zambia to perform at O2 area that's sold out...
keep it up..
He's from New Jersey
@@iLoveBoysandBerries Trevor Noah was born and raised in South Africa.
*South Africa.* Southern Africa is the southern region of the African continent. South Africa is a country, the bottom tip of the continent, actually.
@@iLoveBoysandBerries Trevor Noah was born and raised in a country called South Africa, born during the apartheid. It's nowhere close to New Jersey.
Most talented is a lie
This transition tho .... 💯
Still the same person ❤️🥰

@@LauRoot892 hi do u watch it too
@@LauRoot892 I'm from Zimbabwe aka land of fake promises ...I'm 21 , pleasure to meet ya😏😂
suddenly you wake up next morning and you're a male 🤣🤣.
I think about those esquire pics more often than Im willing to admit
Yo, I love whoever that was screaming at the top of their lungs when they called out Elliot..
Love how much more comfortable he was in this interview comparatively to the others. I'm glad he's doing the press round for the Umbrella Academy since his transition is handled beautifully in the show, in the first two episodes.
You could tell that the scenes of him coming out to his adopted family and her mindset to finally went to through the transition were genuine. This is the best representation in the media I've seen yet.
While I believe Elliot might not have asked to be the next public face of this community when he went through this very personal transformation, it is unavoidable but he's handling it really well despite being so painfully awkward, even before all of this.
I wish him all the success in the world since he has start to come into his own self and build confidence to use his boundless talent to the fullest now.
Is it handled at all? It is him cutting his hair and then telling the others to be okay with that, which unsurprisingly they are because nothing could be more awkward than the wig he was forced to wear before.
To me it felt like one of the biggest missed opportunities to either use it as a compelling story line or make it normal enough to fly under the radar entirely without any virtue signalling. Then again the strength of the show never has been the writing, so no surprise there.
@@Schmidtelpunkt Well, sure. There was an opportunity to use the transition more directly in the storyline but I would surmise that it was Elliot himself that would not want to use it far more than just the surface level. It may be his personal decision to touch upon the coming out aspect of the transition only, and not too comfortable to use it for more than that. It might be viewed as a disingenuous pandering if not handled properly.
I would argue that the writing has been great, at least for me i.e. Victor's need to lead the family and Allison's slow descent into madness.
Wow. I mistook him for Mr. Olympia in that magazine spread 🤣
I hope we get a fitness VR video with Trevor & Elliot.
My favorite thing about these interviews, no joke, is Elliot’s VOICE. Get that T and drop it low, babe!
Best interview ever done 👍👍
I know who Trevor is of course but never watched the show but this is the 3rd interview I watched recently and he is a great interviewer
Page out here in the thumbnail looking like just helped Charlie Day do research on Kaiju
I have all the time in the world for Elliot page, always been an amazing performer.
Where has everyone been. He has had abs long before he came out and started physically transitioned. They have definitely gotten more jacked since, but he’s always been fit.
Fr
I Love Viktor Since Juno♥️ So Happy That He Transitioned And I Can't Wait To See Him In Other Movies And Shows!
Elliot. "Victor" is the name of the character he plays in "The Umbrella Academy". Just a friendly heads up.
I love how his voice is just changing
That must of taken a lot of courage to do this interview ❤
Elliot ❤️ I feel like I most connect with your character in Umbrella Academy 🌂 🎻 🎶
Oh MY! HE IS CONFIDENT! *snaps* its night and day ♡ its powerful when you can BE YOURSELF! ♡
Ayeeee. Eliot Page in the house. Umbrella Academy season 3 is awesome.
Two of my favorite people!
Don't you mean three people?
@@t.jasonkittell2916 There were two people in the interview. You okay? Do you need help? Maybe glasses?
Wow that's nice @Anna kathryn Hodges
Dude, I got jacked with video games myself and I'm so happy he was saying he did all that with VR! Taking the stigma of video gaming!
So happy to see this. Trot him out to promote. Make it normal. And now we can all go back to saving the world... 💖
Supernatural sales is number 1 now haha
He’s gorgeous and glowing 👏🏽
She. And no, she just looks so sad.
Great interview always from Trevor.
Totally appreciated the discussion about VR. I’ve never listen to anyone who ever used it before. Totally fascinating discussion, thanks.
Juno's Uno reverse card worked perfectly 👌
This inspired me to download Supernatural VR and it's awesome!
I need someone to write a movie starring Elliot Page, Daniel Radcliffe, and Elijah Wood playing brothers or something.
The VR exercise app is totally a plug. I know these things are scripted but it is like a movie, you want them to keep the effect that it is genuinely a conversation going.
Yeah they spent as much time talking about it as the show
Love him the first sight! So happy for him~
I love him so much! ❤️
wow I liked this interview more than Seths
It wasn't until right now that I realized that the third season is out. I'll have to check it out. About his workout routine. Elliot looks like quite the ectomorph, probably a real challenge to put on muscle for him. The VR workout he mentions sounds like it would be fun. A nice tip for people who find working out a chore.
It is EXTREMELY FUN! A lot of people who use it say they've never been able to stick to a workout before. Me neither. I've lost 25 lbs. Great supportive Facebook community, too.
Hmm i wonder why he’s an ectomorph.. low testosterone?
@@skylerprophet1484 It's more of a body type thing than a hormone or gender thing but I'm sure a doctor could give him more testosterone if he needed it? As long as he is healthy I don't see a problem with being slim though. One should have body positivity for all body types. I only mentioned ectomorph as it is relevant to workouts routines to fit your workout to your body type and set reasonable goals.
@Myself Just like the computer you're using, the clothes you wear, and the equipment in a gym people workout with... and the building itself. People need to abandon the general glorification of the word "natural".
He seems happier nowadays. I'm so happy for him. I wish nothing but happiness and greatness to him. Go get em, tiger!
if everybody told everybody where they were and what they were doing, the 3rd season would've been probably 3 episodes
I love Supernatural!
Wow that's nice @Alicia pedreira
Me too!! It's an awesome workout, isn't it?
Love Elliot. The fact we both workout on Supernatural is pretty cool.
Thats a female !
Wow, Eliot Page is the first person who is able to sell me VR. This fitness app sounds so much fun.
Now I want a VR headset for real
IAM LOOKING UP THIS GAME RIGHT. NOW!! Also congrats on your transition and achievements Elliot!
You made an excellent opinion @Holly Golightly
Elliot is my pookie bear❤
The sales of the Supernatural VR Game after this 📈📈📈
i’ve always been in love w elliot omfg
I’m so outta touch. Sounds like an amazing show. I’ll have to watch. :)
And what a cutie! I’m a fan already.
You both real cute 🥰 Sounds great, the superpowers 🤩 if i could have some🤗 wow! i want to have two different superpower, one superpower is for everyone.
The superpower to make everyone laugh nonstop 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
People just looking at my face laughing and when i touching them, they continue to laugh for the rest of their life.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 sounds awesome 🤣
Rumor🤨 i heard🤔 they said! thank you to The Daily Show with Trevor and the Team, that make people enjoy laugh and feeling great.🤗🙏😍
Thanks and appreciate you both! the show and the team works🙏
Thats why it makes sense that Allison still have her powers in season 4 love Umbrella Academy and Elliot. Oh and I can't forget Trevor 🥰
Elliot Page for me = Juno never can forget that one
He's my comfort Actor and Character in Umbrella Academy.
the videos could be louder. it isn‘t loud enough compared to other videos on yt. when i‘m in zhe bus or something i dont really hear what they say.
Now THAT would be fun!
I want VR now!
You need an Oculus Quest 2 to play it, but Supernatural is an awesome workout.
Elliot's jaw is like cut glass! Oof 😍
Yeeeeeah, I was noticing that toooooo 🤤
He has ever single opinion he’s required to have
🤩 nice tie Trevor.
Love Elliot. Love Umbrella Academy.
Love him. Always did, always will.
@Myself Who is?
@Myself Trevor Noah is a "chick"?
@Myself How so?
@Myself Trevor Noah is a chick because of transgenderism? What do you mean?
What is he talking about?! His power was literally the best!
every time I see Elliot, I keep thinking that he reminds me of Manny Jacinto and I can't unsee it.
But will there be a season 4??
