I've got this song on my iPod, but it's a kick to see this and all the banter before. What a trip. One of the strangest pairings ever.

Bing and Bowie - "Little Drummer Boy"
Wondering why they picked Hugh Jackman to host the Oscars?
If you're wondering why Bill Condon (director of Chicago) and the new producers of this year's Oscars chose Hugh Jackman to host, remember, he's not only the Sexiest Man Alive, but a man who won a Tony award for A Boy From Oz. He's hosted the Tony's and earned an Emmy for that gig. I think he's going to be a fantastic host, and look fantastic in a tux doing it! If you've only seen Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, take a look at these videos of Hugh, song and dance man and host extraordinaire. Awards Daily has found three great YouTube clips of Hugh from the Tony's over the years:
I just adore this one.
Like Awards Daily, I hope we might see a bit of Peter Allen at the Oscars, gold lame pants, leopard shirt and all! I saw Hugh in A Boy From Oz on stage, third row center and worth every penny. He was beyond amazing. Hugh does one of the numbers from the show on the 2004 Tony's (where he won!) and mortifies Sarah Jessica Parker. It's priceless!

Craig Ferguson Eulogizes his Mother
I missed this show from December 8th. Craig Ferguson lost his mother December 1st, and returned to the show a week later after attending the funeral in Scotland. It's very touching, similar to the eulogy he gave his father 3 years ago.

Hugh Jackman to Host Oscars!!
Variety reports that Hugh Jackman will be hosting the Oscars this year. I don't expect a comedy monologue, but I'd bet on a song and dance number. Hugh was fabulous hosting the Tony's a couple of years ago. Well, he has no chance of winning an Oscar this year after Australia, so this is one way to get up on that stage!
