I know that it's way too early to take these rumors seriously (remember Justin Timberlake?), but this truly excites me.British comedian Ricky Gervais is hotly tipped to host next year's Academy Awards.
Gossips claim new Oscars bosses Laurence Mark and Bill Condon were impressed with The Office creator's laugh-raising stint at Sunday's Emmy Awards, and they want to audition him for the Oscars.
A source tells Ew.com, "The buzz around town is that Ricky should host the Oscars."
Previous Oscars hosts have included Whoopi Goldberg, Steve Martin, Jon Stewart and Billy Crystal.

Well, the movie industry is ripe for a scewering, that's for sure, and he probably could do it. I was still hoping for an Ellen return, but he was one of the very few bright spots during those boring three hours -- which seemed like six. I actually felt sorry for all those people trapped in that theatre.
