The Oscars are turning into one big freaking musical, that’s for sure. First “Chicago” producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron were hired to produce the show. Now Rob Ashford’s coming on as choreographer. Add to that the idea that “Les Miserables” is going to be nominated in, like, every category from Best Picture and Director (Tom Hooper) to all kinds of things for Hugh Jackman and Anne Hathaway and others in the cast. Then, consider that the Academy has restored the five nominees rule for Best Song. And that Adele — if we’re lucky– will sing “Skyfall” (it had better be nominated for Best Song). Are you following this? The 2013 Academy Awards are going to be like a show stopping Busby Berkeley musical. Who knows? Maybe host Seth MacFarlane can sing, too!
