Now that Kevin Hart has stepped down as host of the Oscars, calls for Wanda Sykes to be the host are becoming strong.
"Wanda would be lit,"
says Emmy nominated writer and actress Lena Waithe.
"I vote for Wanda or Donald Glover or get Chris Rock back in there."
Sykes, who came out as gay ten years ago, is a comic and has appeared on several TV shows including "The Chris Rock Show," "Black-ish," and "Curb Your Enthusiasm." Bryan Guffey, the president of the Midwest Institute for Sexuality and Gender Diversity says,
"Wanda Sykes is very funny and a brilliant comedian who also is a black woman so it makes a lot of sense for her to be the replacement."
If not Wanda, who?
