Although it's not a great gig by some measures, it's visibility and a favor to the Academy, and I'm surprised how hard it is for the Academy to find star power for the nominations announcement. I think they've only had one prior Oscar nominee (Riz Ahmed) do the announcement in recent years, and one year they even had Nick Jonas do it with his wife, and I'm not sure he's ever had a role of any significance in a film in his entire life. This is the first year I can remember where I've never heard of one of the participants (Rachel Sennott, who to her credit has headlined a movie, so she's ahead of Nick Jonas and that may be more on me than on her that I don't know who she is). Sennott's joke about staying up all night may have been accurate, because she really looked like she had stayed up all night. Whoever did her makeup and styling didn't do right by her IMO. The Tonys definitely do a better job. This past season's nomination announcement was done by Tony winners Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Renee Elise Goldsberry, and the previous year by Lea Michele and Tony winner Myles Frost. |
