Oscars Will Not Be Hosted For The First Time Since 1989

-

Hollywood's biggest night, the Oscars ceremonies, will not feature an official host guiding the event this year, according to the president of ABC Entertainment which will broadcast the Academy Awards on Feb. 24.
Karey Burke told television reporters that the telecast would have "a pretty exciting opening" even without a host.
This is not the first time that the awards show went on without a host.
"The last time the Oscars went host-less, in 1989, the opening featured actor Rob Lowe and Snow White in a regrettable song and dance number," NPR's Mandalit Del Barco reported.
"This time, ABC Entertainment president Karey Burke says the decision to go without a host was made "wisely" by the show's producers. She promised to keep the Feb. 24 telecast down to just three hours," Del Barco added.
The question of who would host the Oscars had bedeviled the network ever since comedian Kevin Hart stepped down as the planned emcee following the reaction to some anti-gay slurs he had tweeted between 2009 and 2011.

Is Jennifer Lawrence a bad actress?

I would say she is one of the better actresses in her generation. Watch   Winter’s Bone   (2010) Forget the commercial   Hunger Games(2012,2013,2015), X Men First Class (2011),X Men Apocalypse(2014) . She wasn’t bad, it was just acting in superhero movies. Watch   Silver Lining’s Playbook (2012) .   Forget Joy (2015). Look at   American Hustle   (2013). I would say she is better than most of her generation for   Bones. . Is she overrated/pushed by academy/critics? Of course. Every generation we have such phenomenon.She is white, American, talented, pretty and likeable -what better candidate? I thought it would be Amy Adams at one point. Then I thought the ‘chosen one ‘ would be   Lupita Nyongo   this decade, after her   12 Years a Slave   role. But she isn’t a white American, eh? Lawrence is currently experiencing an America's Sweetheart status that seems to predate these cynical, media-savvy times...
