Currently, the latest news suggests that the Academy Awards is all set to kick start the award show with no host for the fist time in nearly 30 years.
Earlier, American actor-comedian Kevin Hart was announced as the host of the 2019 award ceremony but the ‘Jumanji’ actor stepped down after his tweets from 2009-2011 containing derogatory language went viral.
The idea of a hostless awards show does sound isolating. However, the Academy has not confirmed the development yet. The Oscars are all set to take place on February 25th.
