He Better Do It Shirtless

I'm hoping his year's Oscars will be shirt-optional since Hugh Jackman is hosting it and he suffers from Matthew McConaughy syndrome. The Oscar bitches announced today that Hugh will host the Oscars on February 22nd. The show is usually hosted by people who tell jokes for a living, but they decided that sex sells so they got Hugh instead.

Hugh is actually an excellent choice! As long as he keeps his shirt off, keeps the bow tie on (it is the Oscars after all) and opens the show in an Oscar statue hammock thong, everyone will be pleased. Tommy Girl better keep his hungry no-no under lock and key, because that thing is going to try and eat the host.

Oh and Hugh better recreate this performance he did for the Tony Awards (complete with Carole Bayer Sager's introduction, of course):

Thank you, LOVE ANDERSON~

I'm hoping the ratings are indeed good.

I remember watching The Oscars as a kid. The simultaneous translation was damn funny. Too bad I do not remember much about the event itself.

Speaking of that... people abroad, whose country's mother language is not English, how do you fancy the event? Over the years, I feel that it is indeed much better to watch the thing with better linguistic skills and without translation.

However, the (mostly fart) jokes would go way over my head still if I had not been living here for so long. Yeah, it's actually funny now!

It is a night for these over indulgent people to pat each other on the back, but I will gladly watch it this year with ya'll ~

That one's easy: his beard's been a beard for a long time now, and he doesn't want to lose half his shit.

Why doesn't he just come out of the closet already? Aren't there some rumours about a handsome personal assistant who is constantly in the background.

Gotta love how naturally Hugh falls into that 'submissive' role with Travolta.

Billy Crystal did it for years and he was a comedian first then actor I believe but considering the Emmy's BOMBED I suspect they want to sell this show this year.
I personally loved John Stewart when he hosted.
Let's just THANK CHEESUS that it isn't Tommygirl.

Didn't Hugh host the The Tony's?
(The "so not gay" awards?)

Clarisse, that made me uncomfortable. I could put 'sucking dick' on my resume and that shit made me blink and turn it off. But my question is this . . . if they are straight like they want us to believe and this is how hetero men act then why is there homophobia in the world? Anyone?

"I love my tail in these jeans!"

I hope Nitty is too busy today or too snowed in to read this, BUT: having seen him try to kiss NK in "AU," I am convinced he's gay. He looked like an awkward 12 yr old the first time playing Spin the Bottle. No technique, no passion.

Guys? For some reason, him being gay or not does not interest me. Does this mean I am a gayelle?

Truth be told, I am still scratching my head over this.

I am also very lazy, so I cannot even be bothered to go read about the oscars on wikipedia to see if it's the first time they do not have a comedian host, so let me ask you Oscar bluffs here... is this the first time they're not allowing a comedian host this sh*t?

Yaknow who'd rule hosting it? Kathy Griffin~

Ok, as talented as he may be, no one is that good of an actor. That little flame is in there and it's dying to come out.

I wouldn't say that Hugh is gay, but his longtime assistant John might.

Okay, I get it. Hugh's only playing a gay guy. But still, he does gay exceptionally well. For a few minutes I thought I was seeing Rupert Everet jump around on that stage. I mean, it was that fucking gay. In fact, Hugh's performance was probably the gayest shit I've seen all year. It was a wonderful performance, yes, but it was very, very gay. But I guess that was supposed to be the point.

That being said, Hugh IS a very talented performer & actor & I would give one of my ovaries for just one night with him. I'd even probably pay to smell his farts.

So this year it will be WAY GAY.

And no, he may be hwore bait for some of you but an emcee he is not.

So... Hugh Jackson's *not* gay? Riiiight. And monkeys might fly outta my butt.

walker's picture

Um, I agree! He is the hottest, gayest, straight guy! Or something! Huh? Anyway, talk about hot love scenes on the Mambo #5 clip! Must rent more Hugh Jackman movies!

I. Want. Him. Now.

It's called talent, folks. Talent and range. From Broadway's Peter Allen, the gayest gay that ever came to Gaytown, to ultra-macho Wolverine... this man rocks.

Isn't acting gay the whole point since the boy from oz is based on Peter Allen's life? Me thinks so, but he does it so well!

As a girl who has had many crushes on some hot as heck gay man, that's the hottest clip I've ever seen. How I have not seen that before is beyond me and my inner gay man is wanting to dance!

Now there's a man!

Australian actors have that virile look and feel about them.

I'm thinking Nick Tate, Bryan Brown...

PS: Russell Crowe is NOT Australian, as the locals are quick to point out. He's a kiwi (from New Zealand). A big, fat, overripe, and obnoxious one.

Nothing against Hugh - love him, but I thought Ricky Gervais was in line to do it.

You know, Mr. Hekki will sometimes do a little gay act if I ask him if my shoes go with the outfit or if I talk about something like prosecco or ruching. But honestly, a man who is so good at doing Peter Allen just makes me wonder.

cuntygolightly's picture

that is the GAYEST youtube video ever made

Hekki's picture

Yes, I am sorry, he rings the gaydar alarm.

stake_spike's picture

This just doesn't seem right to me. Isn't it usually comedians who host the Oscars, not people who may one day be in the running for one?

Clarisse's picture

Um. That was more uncomfortable to watch than the chicken plucker. Only made to the 2 minute mark.

I will never look at Wolverine the same way again.

BTW...MK, you have a better shot at jackman than you think.

Wolverine hosts the Oscars and RDJ is going to be there too... see, I wouldn't mind going to the Oscar's showers now, because they have backstage showers, right? or at least they gotta have double view mirrors in the bathrooms.
