Hosting the Oscars is a tough gig and everyone from
Anne Hathaway to
Seth MacFarlane were slammed for their emceeing skills — and Kevin Hart was already getting the side-eye from some Twitter users.
With Oscar night scheduled for Feb. 24, 2019, Hart has nearly three months to prepare. Twitter will surely be on fire that night, what with its obligatory peanut congregation critiques.
Nonetheless, it’s a huge accomplishment for the Philly native. Can’t a brother live?
