Possibilities exist for Oprah Winfrey to host the next year’s Oscar Academy Awards at the Kodak Theatre in February. This is based on a report brought out by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences(AMPAS).According to the columnist Bill Zwecker, Academy honchos strongly believe that Oprah Winfrey could significantly expand the show’s audience.
In case, Oprah Winfrey accepts the hosting, then she will be the third solo female host in Oscar history, the other two women being Whoopi Goldberg and Ellen DeGeneres. Until now, there has been no sign of a statement yet from Oprah’s side to acknowledge the Oscar hosting.
If Oprah Winfrey accepts the spot as next year’s anchor for the Oscar Academy, it is expected that there will be a remark on the rise of television ratings. And it will be a new record for the increase of audience and viewers as well. For the 2011 Oscars, Oprah Winfrey was present, handing out the statuette for the best documentary host.
