It was just last week that Jared Leto was in the news because he purchased an unusual home for a cool $5 million. When the movie star hits the news, he usually is around for a little while and it looks like this week is not any different. According to what the star had to say on Twitter, he will be back at the Oscars this year, but it will be for a presenting role. His tweet stated that he was invited back to the Oscars to present when it is taped live on February 22nd.
Jared Leto will join other movie superstars like Cate Blanchett, Matthew McConaughey, and Lupita Nyong on the stage as presenters this year. According to what you can read about the Oscar’s, it is typical that the actor and actress that won for their skills the year before are asked to come back and present an award. The producers of the show have been doing that for years according to reports, but even though the actors are invited, they do not always want to show up.
Jared Leto has had a busy twelve months as he has been making the movie award and late night talk show circuit, not to mention the news surrounding his purchase of the former military compound in the Hollywood hills. Jared Leto was in the Dalls Buyers Club most recently and has been cast as the Joker in an upcoming film about Batman.
The news that he was going to be Joker, swept across the internet like wildfire and that is pretty much the beginning of the long, news cycle for the famous actor. When he was presenting an award at the 2015 Critic’s Choice Movie Awards, Jared Leto made a few headlines for doing something that is supposedly a no-no when it comes to award shows. Other than wearing a bold, blue suit, the actor reportedly looked inside the envelope accidentally while walking on stage and declared that as soon as his mic was on.
That is a big no-no in the award show and now that he will be at the Oscars on the 22nd of February, there is a good chance that the producers are hoping that he does not do the same thing while walking onto the big stage as a presenter. Jared Leto has quite a following and even one that is keeping an eye on his hairstyles. Over the years, the actor/rock star has had almost 40 exclusive hairstyles and that fits his personality just perfectly.
