Kevin Hart to Be Oscars Host Last month, Kevin Hart gave up his position
as host of the 91st Academy Awards. His decision was due to backlash for
homophobic tweets he had made years ago. After he stepped down, Hart posted a video explaining that he had grown since making the statements and apologized, but he didn't want the
controversy surrounding
him to distract from the Oscars. Hart recently appeared on
'The Ellen DeGeneres Show'

of the upcoming episode with the caption, Ellen DeGeneres,

admits that she personally
called the Academy to
reinstate Hart as host. Ellen DeGeneres, on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show'
