Kevin Hart apologises again to LGBTQ community, Chris Rock doesn't desire to host Oscars
LOS ANGELES: Kevin Harthas once again issued an apology to the LGBTQcommunity for his old homophobic tweets, while his contemporary Chris Rockhas said his name can be crossed off this year's potential Oscarshosts list.
The controversy over using homosexual slurs in his past Twitter posts led Hart to step down as the emcee of Academy Awards 2019, after apologising for his comments.

The movie itself is a stylistic breakthrough for him — a operate he wrote, directed, and starred in that populates an entire world with a multiplicity of black men who are diverse, engaging, and, above all, funny. But there’s a crucial scene involving a lgbtq+ character — or at least a guy on the short — that’s cheap and almost ruins an otherwise good movie.
The scene — and here’s where you might want to stop reading and circle back if you haven’t seen Top Five yet — occurs when Andre Allen (Chris Rock) and Fresh York Times reporter Chelsea Brown (Rosario Dawson) run into her boyfriend Brad (Anders Holm) in a hotel lobby during their marathon hangout. It’s the first introduction in the film of a main pale character, and you can feel the temperature change: Andre calls him “white Brad,” because he assumed that Chelsea’s bo
