Please DON'T let it be Billy Crystal or Rosie O'Donnell. Dame Edna would be great!

How about Dame Edna AS Rosie O'Donnell? Everyone could be happy with that, right....

Sticking with the same host three years in a row is definitely...well, stale...but Hugh Jackman seems to be very popular with the world at large, so that might be the best way to draw a crowd. Besides, even those posters who don't see him as the ideal host would still watch, because...well, let's face it--we all love Broadway around here! :0)
I have not lost my taste for Hugh. Please no puppets!! John Lithgow and Norbert Leo Butz would be fun to see co host.
Rob Diamond.
Hugh Jackman isn't that popular here. No one knows the name, just the face. "Oh, that's right. He's that Wolverine and Van Heisling guy..."
I don't think Butz and Lithgow should host - if you're in a show that's nominated (of if you're nominated,) just sit in the audience and enjoy the show. I hated that Jackman basically presented himself the Tony last year.
And the title is misleading...the host will not be announced next week for sure - they were last year - that means nothing.
"And the title is misleading...the host will not be announced next week for sure - they were last year - that means nothing."
Ahem...
"Last year, the host was announced on March 4.
Of course it doesn't have to be released next week, but it could be any time now."
Don't bother to read my wonderfully written posts, eh? Of course you have to use misleading titles. It's fun!
Hugh should also host the Academy Awards and basically every award show.
