Julia Louis-Dreyfus’s character on Seinfeld is an eternal balm; even 20 years later, Elaine remains a consistently funny, relatable loudmouth who proved women can be just as unhinged as men and look better in blazers.

Hosting the Oscars is a hard job. You need a) squeaky clean tweets, b) a boring, PG-13 sense of humor that won’t offend any advertisers, nominees, guests, etc. and c) skin as thick as rubber, considering almost everyone will think you’re doing an awful job.
