snoop1130 Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Oscars consider having no host after Kevin Hart quits by Andrew Pulver Kevin Hart hosting the 2016 Academy Awards. Photograph: Kevin Winter/Getty Images The organisers of the Academy Awards are considering dispensing entirely with a host for the ceremony after the abrupt departure of Kevin Hart, it has been reported. According to Variety, the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences are struggling to replace Hart after the comedian stepped down from Oscar hosting duties following sustained outrage over his history of homophobic statements. Quoting anonymous “insiders”, Variety suggest that the Academy were taken by surprise by Hart’s refusal to apologise, and subsequent stepping down from the TV show. While the most obvious path would be to invite a talk-show host – such as Jimmy Kimmel or Ellen DeGeneres – to oversee proceedings, another option under consideration is to have no single host at all, instead offering “a bunch of huge celebs, something SNL style, and buzzy people”.
