Oscar 2019 will not have a host

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has been forced to take a step that has not be taken in the last 30 years — the Oscars will not have a host, reports EOnline.com.

The 91st Annual Academy Awards will feature a host this year as the organisation seems to have given up on convincing any star to take up the role after comedian Kevin Hart backed out. The comedian took the step after a couple of homophobic tweets by him resurfaced on Twitter post his acceptance as the Oscar 2019 host. The Oscars will instead recruit stars for various stars in place of “One marquee name to kick things off in a monologue filled with Trump zingers.”
