The 2010 Academy Awards are going to be hysterical now that the Oscars will be hosted by funny-men Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin.

While Steve Martin has hosted the Oscars twice in the past this will be Alec’s first time. Steve had this to say: “I am happy to co-host the Oscars with my enemy Alec Baldwin.”

The Oscars will be directed by Adam Shankman, best known for his recent work with Miley Cyrus, along with Bill Mechanic. Adam and Bill said about the newly announced hosts: “We think the team of Steve and Alec are the perfect pair of hosts for the Oscars. Steve will bring the experience of having hosted the show in the past and Alec will be a completely fresh personality for this event.”

The 2010 Academy Awards will air on the ABC Television Channel March 7, 2010.
