Steve Martin is a funny talented human being. He is a brilliant stand-up comedian, a beautiful actor, a qualified magician, a mastermistically (that means he is funny when he writes), an art collector with a huge distribution and, above all, a Banjo killer. He wouldn't be a fun phenomenon best known for singing for King Tut to a fun phenomenon best known for making a joy with Martin Fort. Meanwhile, he wrote and starred in classic comedy films such as "The Jerker", "Dead People Don't Wear Plaid", "The Two Brain Man", "Roxan", "La Story" and "Bowfinger" and only the playing old acted in "Three Amigos", "Aircraft, Trains and Cars" "Dirty Corrupted Scandals" and "Parenting".

Steve Martin is a national wealth (just watch his documentary "Steve! He deserves the best in life. So why, oh, why was he forced to host the Oscars three times?

You may think it is an honor to seek the host of the Oscars. Is not. It is an honor to be nominatedBut to take a walk in front of an audience full of folk or anxious to win the award or wishing they could be anywhere, but one of those narrow theater theater places and try to get them to laugh? The list of comedy Titans who bombed while hosting the Oscars is short but different: David Letterman, Chris Rock and Jonon Stewart descended in flames. When Billy Crystal is your gold standard (and Bob Hope in front of him), hiring Martin to host the Oscars is like Lamborghini's rent to transfer lumber.

But why should I talk about Steve Martin when he was quite eloquent about why he would never host the Oscars in his own words?

In an interview in 2024 with the Los Angeles TimesMartin has revealed that he is "very nervous" the first two times to surpass the Oscars because he did the solo. When he hosted Alec Baldwin by him, he was much more comfortable. "Looking back, I realized:" Oh, I had someone else there with me. "

If that is the case, why not just get his new live-comedy partner, Martin Short to mark the Oscars with him? And, hell, why not throw our "just murders in the building" co-Starvala Selena Gomez in the mixture (As it was offered a few years ago)? According to Martin:

"This represents so much work for us. And we love our summers. When I was hosting before, I started working for months ahead of time. And now I have a completely different life. I'm not that free. That's a lot of work and we're working on." .

Another problem for Martin is that the Academy of Art and Science of Image is cheap. But really, it's about the job. However, Martin has a joke about the Oscars he never had to use. Maybe Conan O'Brien, a comical genius and late at night God Who will make his hardest this March to succeed where his peers stumbled upon can use it. According to Martin, "I will go out and say," I know what you are thinking. Thinking, "Steve, how did you manage to host the Oscars? 'It was easy.

Good luck, Conan.
