Ellen DeGeneres on pros & cons of being Oscar host


Ellen DeGeneres is such a riot.

She’s back with new episodes of her daytime talk show and today, she talked about hosting the Oscars.

The full video is below but I want to share with you some of the pros and cons she says she considered before accepting the gig:

Among the pros is getting ‘invited to all the cool Oscar after-parties.’ But the con is ‘I like to be tucked in by 7:30.’

Another pro: ‘Lots of fancy designers will want to approach me and want me to wear a big expensive gown of theirs.

The con for the pantsuit-loving Ellen?

‘Ain’t no way in hell I’m wearing a gown!’

Then there is this pro: ‘The theater holds 3,000 seats.’

The downside?

‘It’s going to take 45 minutes to dance through all the aisles.’

DeGeneres also mentions, as a ‘pro,’ that Meryl Streep is likely to earn a record 17th Oscar nomination (it would actually be her 18th) for her acclaimed performance in August: Osage County.

But here’s the con: ‘#WeAreOverItMeryl.’
