Natten till fredag meddelar Kevin Hart att han hoppar av det nyligen utannonserade värdskapet för Oscarsgalan. Detta efter att massiv kritik riktats mot Hart för homofoba uttalanden på Twitter. Han skriver:

“I have made the choice to step down from hosting this year’s Oscar’s….this is because I do not want to be a distraction on a night that should be celebrated by so many amazing talented artists. I sincerely apologize to the LGBTQ community for my insensitive words from my past.”

Komikern och skådespelaren Kevin Hart fortsätter att landa stora jobb, utöver blockbuster-filmer och egna stand up-turnéer. Sent igår, tisdag, annonserade han via Instagram att han nu blir värd för Oscarsgalan 2019. I inlägget skriver han bland annat:

“I am blown away simply because this has been a goal on my list for a long time….To be able to join the legendary list of host that have graced that stage is unbelievable. I know my mom is smiling from ear to ear right now. I want to thank my family/friends/fans for supporting me & riding with me all this time….I will be sure to make this years Oscars a special one.”

For years I have been asked if I would ever Host the Oscars and my answer was always the same…I said that it would be the opportunity of a lifetime for me as a comedian and that it will happen when it’s suppose to. I am so happy to say that the day has finally come for me to host the Oscars. I am blown away simply because this has been a goal on my list for a long time….To be able to join the legendary list of host that have graced that stage is unbelievable. I know my mom is smiling from ear to ear right now. I want to thank my family/friends/fans for supporting me & riding with me all this time….I will be sure to make this years Oscars a special one. I appreciate the @TheAcademy for the opportunity ….now it’s time to rise to the occasion #Oscars
