It’s hard to find a good Oscars host these days!
After award-winning award show host Neil Patrick Harris received mixed reviews for 2015’s ceremony, producers are looking to switch things up for next year — and that apparently means bringing on TWO hosts!

David Hill, the producer for Hollywood’s most prestigious award show, revealed:
“There will be multiple hosts for sure ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ there will be two.”
The producer is confident the whole “two is better than one” formula really works in this situation, despite its hit-or-miss past!
The last time a duo hosted the Oscars together was in 2011, which featured a sedate James Franco and a cheerleader-like Anne Hathaway — and it was regarded as one of the worst choices in Oscars history!

Other hosting pairs fared somewhat better. In 2010, the much more compatible Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin joined forces to deliver a fairly well-received show!
While risky, if the Academy gets the right pair, this could actually be a good idea. And according to reports, the producers are already circling around a well known pair to host!
Hill isn’t revealing any names just yet, but we have a feeling they might be eyeing Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, who just ended a three year contract hosting the Golden Globes — which they totally SLAYED!
Another pair fit to assume hosting duties would be Comedy Central stars Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele! Their Key & Peele show is ending, and their unique satire would be a great fit to liven up the traditionally stiff awards show.
Which duo would YOU like to see host?
