Jimmy Kimmel has shared why he recently turned down a request for him to host the Academy Awards next year for a fifth time. During a conversation with California Governor Gavin Newsom, former NFL player Marshawn Lynch, and NFL agent Doug Hendrickson on their “Politickin’” podcast, Kimmel acknowledged that it’s a tough balance to host both the Oscars and his late-night show. “It’s hard and it’s a lot of work and the show suffers a little bit to be honest,” he explained, referencing “Jimmy Kimmel Live.” “When I’m focused on the Oscars, I’m less focused on the show,” Kimmel continued. “And I just decided I didn’t want to deal with that this year. It was just too much last year.” Kimmel hosted the Academy Awards in 2017, 2018, 2023 and 2024. “You wind up pushing everything off till after the Oscars, and then you have to do everything you promised to do after the Oscars, after the Oscars,” Kimmel said of the gig.
