The Oscars are considered the most prestigious film awards on the planet and are the lifelong dream of many artists around the world. Therefore, the MCs chosen to host the program are carefully selected and receive many expectations from the audience and organizers. However, many people still have to agree that the 2011 Oscars made a mistake by choosing two inexperienced MCs, Anne Hathaway and James Franco.
Male MC: Complacent attitude, stiff and awkward expression, even… leaving first
For the first time standing on the big stage as a host, actor Spider-Man had to admit defeat. Embarrassed by his lack of professionalism. Every time the movie 127 Hours (with the participation of James) appeared on the nomination list, he appeared complacent and arrogant. . This act of bias and pride makes many colleagues, audiences, and critics feel disrespected.
James’ unprofessional performance received fierce criticism from viewers
And yet, throughout the awards ceremony, the only thing the audience saw was the male MC’s stiff expression. He always showed a lack of cooperation and indifference towards his co-host Anne, causing the whole studio to fall into an awkward atmosphere. James’ cross-dressing act could not make the show more exciting and was even criticized as offensive and excessive.
As soon as the awards ceremony ended, James left first, even though there was still a celebration party behind. Therefore, Anne had a difficult awards night but still had to shoulder the responsibility of cheering up the party alone. The organizers could not hide their disappointment and admitted that when rehearsing, the two got along very well, but when they went on stage, James seemed to turn into a different person.
No matter how hard Anne tried, she couldn’t “carry.” James is known for his uncooperative attitude
The surprise performance, which was considered the highlight of the awards night, was also ruined by James because of his lack of charm
Female MC: Standing alone in the middle of the stage, helpless because James is cold to her
A member of the organizers revealed the conflict behind the scenes between the young MC couple, which was said to be the reason why they could not get along on stage. This person said that Anne suggested that James write down things to keep in mind so he could act naturally during the awards ceremony. However, in contrast to the actress’s friendly comments, James bluntly replied, “There’s no need to tell me how to be funny..”.

Even though Anne tried to be cheerful and lively throughout the show, she still couldn’t save the situation

James’s indifferent and cold expression made many people uncomfortable,, while Anne struggled throughout the program to fill her colleague’s void. More seriously, many people accused James of using drugs because he always looked drowsy and unfocused.
