Why Steve Martin refuses to host the Oscars again

Steve Martin is a talented person who is ridiculous. It is a wonderful comedy, a good actor, a skilled magician, and a brilliant humorous spirit (this means that he is funny when he writes), and he is an artistic mosque with tremendous discrimination, and above all, he fought with banjo. He moved from being an entertainment phenomenon famous for singing around King Tut to an entertainment phenomenon that was famous for making it with Martin Short. Between this, he wrote and championships in classic comedy films such as “The Jerk”, “Dead Men Don Don Wear” and “The Man with two Old Plain in” Three Amigos “and” Dirty ” Rotten Scoundreams “and” ParendHood “.

Steve Martin is a national treasure (just watch his documentary “Steve! (Martin) is a documentary in two pieces” on Apple+ if you do not believe me). He deserves the best in life. So why, why, was forced to host the Academy Awards party three times?

You may think it is honoring to be asked to host the Academy Awards. it’s not. It is an honor for me to be NominatedBut to go out in front of an audience full of people, either by tension, either by tension from winning a prize or I hope they are anywhere, but one of the narrow play dolby, and an attempt to make them laugh? The List of comedy who bombed while hosting a short Oscar party, but it is distinguished: David Litrman, Chris Rock and John Stewart fell into the fire. When Billy Crystal is your gold standard (and Bob Hope before), the appointment of Martin to host the Academy Awards is similar to Lamborghini’s rental of wood.

But why should I talk about Steve Martin when he was completely eloquent about why the Oscars were not hosted again with his own words?

In an interview 2024 with the Los Angeles TimesMartin revealed that he was “very tense” in the first times that he was exceeding the Academy Awards ceremony because he did so alone. When he hosted with Alec Baldwin next to him, he was more comfortable. “If we looked back, I realized,” Oh, I had someone else with me. “

If this is the case, then why not get his new partner in the living comedy Martin briefly to mark the Academy Awards with him? And, hell, why do you not throw “the only murders in the building” Selena Gomez in this mix (As offered a few years ago))? According to Martin:

“This represents a lot of work for us. We love our summer. When I hosted before, I started working for months early. Now I have a completely different life. I’m not free. It’s a lot of work and we are working.”

Another issue of Martin is that the Academy of the Arts and Science Arts is cheap. But, in fact, it comes to work. However, Martin has an Academy Awards Plash that he has never used. Perhaps Conan Operation, Comedy Genius and God late at night Who will do it in this march for success as his peers stumble, he can use it. For every Martin, “I will go out and say,” I know what you think. You are thinking, “Steve, how did you get hosting the Academy Awards?” It was easy.

Good luck, Conan.
