Sure, Brian Williams is a serious network news anchorman, but that doesn’t mean he can’t loosen his tie every once in a while. Even the queen of comedy, Tina Fey (another one of our picks for Oscars host), admits that BriWi is the funniest guy she knows. From hosting Saturday Night Live to appearing on late-night shows to popping up on NBC’s Today to make fun of Kathie Lee and Hoda or eat a large plate of bacon, every time BriWi enters the picture, you can guarantee entertainment. Unless, of course, he’s performing his serious reporting duties overseas, in which case you can only expect brilliance, poise and and a certain degree of calmness under intense pressure. If that doesn’t qualify Brian Williams to host the Oscars, we don’t know what does. (Though he could have some network conflicts, since the show is airing on ABC.)
