Leadership at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and ABC, the network that broadcasts the telecast, are open to Hart resuming his role as emcee if he signals that he wants the job. That message could come through a spokesperson or on social media, where Hart maintains an active presence on Instagram and Twitter, the individual added.

Hart told Variety he was "done" with hosting the awards show, saying, "Would I ever do it? No, it's done. It's done."


"The moment came and it was a blessing and I was excited at the opportunity and I still am," Hart said. "In my mind, I got the job, it was a dream job, and things came up that simply prohibited it from happening. But I don't believe in going backward."

Oh for fuck's sake

Is this is just Hollywood now, endless victory laps and high-fiving for all involved with no real progress being made?

LOL nobody else would do it. I bet even Bubba the Lovesponge and Tim Allen said no.

Hart's 'apology' was one of those "sorry if you're offended" things wasn't it?

Oh god there is totally going to be an insufferably self-aware opening bit that's going to make light of this whole situation and show a complete lack of genuine understanding about what the problem was, isnt there?

I can already see the standing ovation for having overcome people judging him based on his actions and his refusal to learn from them this "malicious attack on [his] character".

It was obvious after LGBT ambassador Ellen DeGeneres officially pardoned and knighted Sir Kevin Hart this past week

This is the worst year of this decade for films. Everyone watch as The Favourite and A Star Is Born duke it out.

This story is hilariously toxic in that every new story makes one more group look awful. First Kevin. Then Ellen. Now the Oscars themselves. This is pathetic. Fuck all of them.
