Those gigs aren\u2019t good gigs for comics. It\u2019s no shot to the Oscars, no shot to the Globes or anything else. Those just aren\u2019t comedy-friendly environments anymore.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think they got it right one year where it was like just a bunch of personalities acting as the hosts and that\u2019s a nice thing. It\u2019s a collaborative thing, different people get to be responsible for act one, act two, act three, but you know, the days of it being a room for a comic, those days are done.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hart, who has hosted the MTV Movie Awards, the BET Awards, and the MTV Video Music Awards in the past, commended his fellow comedians on their successful hosting careers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShout out to those that have cracked the code and done it right early on, you know, the Chris Rocks of the world, the Billy Crystals of the world, the girls we\u2019ve had like Tina Fey, Amy Poehler. Ricky Gervais. There\u2019s a lot of people that understand that if you\u2019re not an industry comic, meaning a comic that has the relationships of all, then those rooms are very cold.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, me doing it is, of course, at an advantage, because I know the room and for me, and familiar with so many but, for others it\u2019s not the same,\u201d Hart said. \u201cIt\u2019s not the gig that it was of old. It\u2019s too much pressure on the idea of a comic and what\u2019s jokes and not jokes. So, it\u2019s tough.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Darnell Hart is an African-American comedian and actor who is known for his roles in the Jumanji sequels including Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017) and Jumanji: The Next Level (2019), Undeclared (2001), Scary Movie 3 (2003), Think Like a Man (2012), Ride Along (2014), The Secret Life of Pets (2016), Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie (2017), Central Intelligence (2016) and Fast &amp; Furious: Hobbs &amp; Shaw (2019).<\/p>\n<p>tigpost.co<\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>American Comedian Kevin Hart has said he will not host the Oscars again.
