Billy Crystal Gets Oscar Hosting Nod
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Billy Crystal says he is hosting the Academy Awards.
The 63-year-old comedian and Oscar-hosting veteran said Thursday on Twitter that he is “doing the Oscars so the young woman in the pharmacy will stop asking my name when I pick up my prescriptions.”
Academy officials confirmed the appointment.
Crystal last hosted the show in 2004. This will be his ninth stint as host.
