Who’s hosting the 2010 Academy Awards?

A famous pair of chaps as it happens, one for for being a douche to his kid and the other for being a jerk. It’s Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin who are set to take on the role. This seems odd, sure Baldwin seems to be the man of the moment given the success of 30 Rock, but after the job Jackman did last year, you’d think he’d be top of the list to return.

Martin has Oscar host experience though and is generally pretty funny, so here’s hoping the pair can make it as entertaining as last years. Producers Adam Shankman and Bill Mechanic stated “We think the team of Steve and Alec are the perfect pair of hosts for the Oscars. Steve will bring the experience of having hosted the show in the past and Alec will be a completely fresh personality for this event.”
