Thanks to Sasha over at AwardsDaily for the heads up.
It’s official! Â “The Sexist Man Alive” is hosting the 81st Academy Awards. The announcement was telecast by producer Laurence Mark and executive producer Bill Condon today.
“Hugh Jackman is a consummate entertainer and an internationally renowned movie star,†said Mark and Condon in a joint statement. “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.â€
I will be taping this event that airs Sunday, February 22, 2009 at the Kodak Theatre at the Hollywood & Highland Center. Don’t be the only one who misses it!
