Even Trevor Noah needs to pop into the grocery store for some necessities from time to time.

The South African comedian recently returned to his home country and surprised audience members with a pop-up show during Kevin Hart's Reality Check tour in Pretoria on Saturday.

However, on Monday, which is also his birthday, he gave fans the biggest surprise of all – posing for selfies at his local Checkers in Joburg.

Professional photographer Keenan Constance shared a photo on social media, posing alongside the former Daily Show host, who was showing a thumbs-up.

"Look who I bumped into today. Must have gotten so many selfie requests while there, shame man, next time use Checkers sixty60," he wrote in the caption.
