I think that everything said in the artical i just read was extremely arrogant, sexist, and rude. Ellen is much more than qualified to do this and I wouldn’t doubt for one second that this wouldn’t mean absolutely everything to her. She is a great person, she makes people who, unlike yourself, have a sense of humor, laugh and she has definately changed my life in many ways. I have complete faith in her and I know she’ll be amazing.

I don’t think it has anything to do with sexuality. Ellen is a brilliant comedian and
everyone should get a chance. I like Steve
Martin but really…not again!!!

I’ll be tuning in and i’m sure she’ll be funny
in her own kinda way.

Yes. It’s a gay agenda.

Horrible choice, they should just get Steve Martin back. I’ve loved Steve Martin as host.

I’m with Chopper here. As it stands, the Oscars is a tighlipped awards show and that’s what makes it soooooooooo freakin’ boring. I watch because 1)I like to see who wins it and 2) once in a while you get a jem like them rappers that won for best song last year. That was THE highlight of any Oscars of at least the last 5 years. I say let Williams loose too. Now THAT would be entertaining!

I can’t say I totally hate Ellen because she does have some moments but I just don’t think she can pull this off.

i still think that they should let Robin Williams loose as the host of the Oscars. but then again, Ellen may do alright, i guess we can give her a shot at it. Stewart sucked, Rock was too tamed. but then again, Clooney can make it sexier!

I think Ellen having a daytime talk show where she goofs around and has friendly chats with celebrities is probably what makes her seem like a natural host. The hosting gig isn’t really about being funny and doing your act. It’s about a few polite jokes and Ellen like Bill Crystal is somebody that is harmless enough to pull that off. I don’t think her sexuality is at all relevant as you said she has sort of become the new Wayne Brady. Funny as culture changes, I remember when the Southern Baptists were boycotting Disney because of her “coming out” and now her show’s probably a hit with many people in that same pseudo-demographic.

I don’t think there’s a gay agenda, but there’s definately a GHEY agenda.

There’s only one person that should be hosting the Oscars…GEORGE CLOONEY.
