Kevin Hart decided to step down as the host of The Oscars after the academy tried to get him to apologize for old homophobic tweets almost 10 years ago.

I've done it. I'm not going to continue to go back and tap into the days of old when I've moved on and I'm in a completely different place in my life." More here
