FeedHugh Jackman To Host The Oscars
Written by NetBear on December 14, 2008 – 11:23 am -He sings, dances, and acts on stage and screen. Now this first-time Oscars host is going to shake-up the Academy Awards show. Hugh Jackman, the sexiest man alive, will host the 81st annual Academy Awards on February 22nd.
Producer Laurence Mark and Executive Producer Bill Condon announced in a joint statement, “Hugh Jackman is a consummate entertainer and an internationally renowned movie star. He also has style, elegance and a sense of occasion. Hugh is the ideal choice to host a celebration of the year’s movies – and to have fun doing it.”
Australia star Hugh Jackman responded saying, “Thirty years ago when I was in Sydney watching Johnny Carson host the Oscars with my family, I never imagined that I’d one day have the chance to be up on that stage myself! I am very grateful to the Academy for giving me this opportunity. And, excited to be working with Larry and Bill on what I know will be a fun and memorable celebration.”
Let’s just hope that Hugh scruffs-it-up for the show!
