Subject: 2017 Oscars: Jimmy Kimmel to host

Written By: Philip Eno on 12/06/16 at 11:33 am

Jimmy Kimmel will host the 2017 Oscars, it has been announced.
It will be the first time the US comedian and talk show host has fronted the ceremony, which takes place on 26 February.
He confirmed on Twitter: "Yes, I am hosting the Oscars. This is not a prank. And if it is, my revenge on @TheAcademy will be terrible & sweet."
Kimmel has previously hosted the American Music Awards and has twice fronted the Emmys - in 2012 and 2016.
This year's ceremony, presented by Chris Rock, suffered an eight-year low in US television ratings, with an average of 34.5 million viewers.
Previous presenters of the Oscars include Ellen DeGeneres, Seth MacFarlane, Whoopi Goldberg and Neil Patrick Harris.
Kimmel has hosted his own nightly hour-long talk show - called Jimmy Kimmel Live! - since 2003.
