The Oscars are just a few days away, but the biggest night in Hollywood is already shrouded in controversy.
The Academy announced plans to introduce a “Best Popular Film” category and give out technical awards during commercial breaks, but was forced to reverse course on both decisions. Additionally, the show is without a host after actor and comedian Kevin Hart dropped out when a series of homophobic tweets from several years ago emerged.
The show must go on, but the Academy does not seem to know which way to go.
