POLL: Who should replace Kevin Hart as Oscars host?

LOS ANGELES (1010 WINS) -- Kevin Hart is out as the host of the 2019 Oscars -- following his initial refusal to apologize for a series of homophobic tweets he wrote a few years ago -- so now the big question looming over Hollywood is who will replace him?

Vote below and tell us who you think should snag the coveted gig:
