Host of late-night talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live! spoke about hosting the Oscars to Variety. Kimmel said, "I made a decision to try to enjoy the process and be optimistic. That said, my subconscious still tells me it's going to be a disaster. This is a no-win situation. Even if it goes great, you get a lot of shit from a lot of people."

Adding that this job will be a challenge, he continued, "It's like a Super Bowl for a comedian. I think there are certain things that are major touchstones or milestones...some kind of stones, maybe gallstones. This is the biggest of them all. I won't even say I like a challenge. Challenges are overrated. But I feel like I have to do it. There's a lot of negativity that goes along with it, but it's a pretty great feather to have in your cap. And it's something that you can tell your grandchildren about."
