It wouldn’t be a proper awards show without some major OMG moments, right?<\/p>\n

The 2019 Oscars<\/a><\/strong> were already off to an interesting start when Kevin Hart<\/a><\/strong> accepted the role as host<\/a> and then immediately stepped down two days later<\/a> after homophobic tweets from 2011 resurfaced.<\/p>\n

“For years I have been asked if I would ever Host the Oscars and my answer was always the same…I said that it would be the opportunity of a lifetime for me as a comedian and that it will happen when it’s suppose to,” he wrote on Instagram<\/a> on Dec. 4 after announcing the gig. “I am so happy to say that the day has finally come for me to host the Oscars. I am blown away simply because this has been a goal on my list for a long time….To be able to join the legendary list of host that have graced that stage is unbelievable.”<\/p>\n

\u00a0On Dec. 7, Hart tweeted<\/a>, “I’m sorry that I hurt people.. I am evolving and want to continue to do so. My goal is to bring people together not tear us apart.\u00a0Much love & appreciation to the Academy. I hope we can meet again.”<\/p>\n

About a month later, he announced once and for all that he would not be hosting<\/a> the show. “It’s done,” he told\u00a0Variety<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Now, the show will go on without a host for the first time in 30 years. According to\u00a0Hollywood Reporter<\/em><\/a>, it’s only the second time to ever happen in the show’s history. Even though there won’t be a host, there’s still a star-studded lineup of presenters including Jennifer Lopez<\/a><\/strong>, Daniel Craig<\/a><\/strong>, Emilia Clarke<\/a><\/strong>, Laura Dern<\/a><\/strong>, Samuel L. Jackson<\/a><\/strong>, Awkwafina<\/a><\/strong>, Tina Fey<\/a><\/strong> and many, many more.<\/p>\n

But the Kevin Hart hosting debacle is hardly the biggest scandal or shocking moment to ever grace the stage at the ceremony.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Never forget the moment at the 2017 Oscars<\/a><\/strong> when Faye Dunaway<\/strong> and Warren Beatty<\/strong>\u00a0accidentally announced\u00a0La La Land<\/em> as the winner for Best Picture<\/a>. Moments later,\u00a0La La Land<\/em>‘s producer Jordan Horowitz<\/strong> corrected the situation and said into the microphone, “Guys, I’m sorry. There’s a mistake.\u00a0Moonlight<\/em>, you guys won Best Picture. This is not a joke. I’m afraid they read the wrong thing.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

To host or not to host: that is the question. On Dec. 4,\u00a0Kevin Hart announced on Twitter that he would be hosting the 2019 show. He called it the “opportunity of a lifetime” and that he was “blown away” by the honors. Two days later, he stepped down<\/a> as the host after facing backlash due to homophobic tweets from 2011 that resurfaced. He apologized and, despite pleas from Ellen DeGeneres, Hart said on Jan. 4 that his mind was made and the decision was “done.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
