Kevin Hart to relive Oscars fiasco for new Netflix series
Anyone wanting to revisit one of this year’s most unpleasant and ridiculous episodes, take heed: Kevin Hart will recount his firing from the Oscars ceremony and the fallout that followed for the new Netflix series, Don’t F*ck This Up.
Hart will open up about the whole mess in the new docu-series, set to debut this December 27. In his announcement on Instagram, Hart described the show as a “hell of a rollercoaster; peaks, hills, valleys, ups, downs. It’s as real, as raw, as transparent as you could be.”
Kevin Hart became something of a cause célèbre in late 2018 when he landed the job as Oscar host. Not long after, a series of homophobic tweets and jokes came back to haunt him. Public outcry over the controversy worsened when Hart refused to apologize for his words, claiming he’d already done so. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences fired Hart just three days after the announcement that he would host the show. Hart then apologized to the queer community for his offensive words.
“Yo if my son comes home & try’s 2 play with my daughters doll house I’m going 2 break it over his head & say n my voice ‘stop that’s gay,'” Hart said on Twitter in 2011.
