Billy Crystal Announces Academy Awards Hosting Twitter

What better way for the 63-year-old comedian to announce his return to the Academy Awards than through his Twitter page? Yep, Billy Crystal took to his social media account and tweeted the follow: “doing the Oscars so the young woman in the pharmacy will stop asking my name when I pick up my prescriptions.” Academy Awards officials have confirmed it, making this Crystal’s ninth appearance as host. The Oscar committee must have been pressured to find a suitable replacement after Eddie Murphy cowardly quit as host, following in the foot steps of show producer and director Brett Ratner. Suitable choice guys. Let the laughs commence!
