So who’s ACTUALLY going to talk to Ryan Seacrest at the Oscars on Sunday?

Call his ass out

In a move that's disappointing but not really surprising, E! has doubled down on the fact that Ryan Seacrest will be covering the 90th Academy Awards on Sunday, despite the new details of the sexual assault allegation against him.

On the one hand, duh — Seacrest is the managing editor of E! News, and has been 2012. He wasn't going to fire himself, especially not for something petty, like E! hairstylist Suzie Hardy for literal years.

But many people are wondering, even if Seacrest does get to keep his spot on the red carpet this Oscar season, who the fuck is actually going to talk to him?

Jennifer Lawrence said she's thought about ignoring Seacrest, but wasn't willing to commit to ignoring the producer. "I can’t imagine him being sexual. I don’t know about the Ryan Seacrest thing," Lawrence said in an interview. "There are already outlets that I’m just like, ‘Nah’. So it wouldn’t be that big of a deal."

This is one of the first real chances for celebrities to demonstrate their commitment to activism — to #MeToo, to Time'sUp — by doing something bigger than accessorizing or color-coordinating. I know I'll be watching to see who talks to Ryan Seacrest, and I think everyone else should be paying attention too.
