During a recent appearance on The View, Regina opened up about going to the show for her first time.

“You know, it’s hard to get into,” she joked. “It’s not an easy place to be. It’s not an easy room to get in. I’ve actually never been to the Oscars.

Regina added, “This is very exciting. It’s slightly different because of the pandemic, so the seating will be slightly different, but I’m happy there’s a live audience.”

“What we really want to do is have a fun show. There will be a lot of things that will hopefully be a lot of fun to watch,” Regina hinted about the show, while also promising that the Academy’s controversial decision to move the presentation of select categories to a pre-show won’t diminish the recipients’ honors.

“Everyone will get to celebrate. Hair, makeup, wardrobe, score — there’s not a component in a movie that’s not important. There’d be no way we’d have a night of Oscars without everybody seeing the face of what helped create the experience of watching a movie,” she explained. “Then there’s a reality that people often complain about: time and how long the Oscars are. You can’t please everyone 100 percent.”

She’ll host the show alongside Amy Schumer and Wanda Sykes.

The View moderator Whoopi Goldberg recently gave Amy advice about hosting.
