Now that Murphy has stepped down from the job in the wake of Brett Ratner’s departure, who should step in as emcee of the next Academy Awards show? Here’s an idea put forward by our former colleague, Fortune Feimster, years ago:
Tina Fey and Amy Poehler
Yes, yes, they’re too busy and bla bla bla. But we’re talking the Oscars, ladies. Do it for the cause, make it one for the ages…
Who do you want to see?
I think Tina and Amy would be a great combination for the job!
Or what about Justin Timberlake. He’s actually funny, he’s fresh, and he’s proving himself in all areas of entertainment.
Good one! There’s also Neil Patrick Harris, who has hosted pretty much everything else.
