Jon Stewart on Hosting the Oscars

Via ABC News:

"I will say this," Stewart said. "This will probably be the most controversial Oscars ever in the history. And I wouldn't be surprised to see, I don't want to say, street violence, afterward — but certainly unrest. I don't want to use the word coup, but it could get pretty ugly. And that's just not a cynical ploy to get people to watch, because I will have six minutes up there..."

So, does he have a pre-game ritual?

"Yeah, I kill a chicken," he said. "I have a chicken brought to me, and I do an incantation and then I kill it. And then I stand over it and taunt it. And then when that is done, I put on my overalls and I walk right out."
