Robert Pattinson
Suggested By: Kayrose16
Past Form: He might not have a lot of hosting gigs, or indeed acting gigs in his young career, but A) he's British and would add cred and B) more importantly, he's Edward Freaking Cullen and the show's audience would shoot up by millions, even if they are all shrieking girls and their mothers.
Show Highlights: Pattinson introduces Taylor Lautner, who presents an award with his shirt off. A little over half the viewing audience produces a sound that can be heard on Mars, even through the vacuum of space.
And we want a self-spoofing moment near the start where he's shot with a glue/glitter canon just for good measure.
Sample Speech: (Looking at an Oscar) "I hate you for making me want you so much."
Tina Fey
Suggested By: Us! (find us on Twitter here)
Past Form: The writer/creator of 30 Rock and an awards show star (see past Emmy acceptance speeches), Fey was a highlight of the 2009 Oscars when she was paired with Steve Martin.
Show Highlights: We'd definitely want an appearance by Martin, if only to get that banter back again.
But Fey could bring some real humour to the event, especially if she has her 30 Rock writers' room punch up the script.
Sample Speech: "I like to crack the jokes now and again, but it's only because I struggle with math."

“Conduct your Oscar acceptance speech. You have ten seconds to comply.”
Surely you're looking for ED-209 then?

Perhaps "Finish the speech, or there will be... trouble".
