Washington D.C. [USA]: The nominations for the 91st Academy Awards have been announced by actors Kumail Nanjiani and Tracee Ellis Ross. This is the first time since 1989 that Hollywood's biggest awards will be held without a host. While Kevin Hart was initially supposed to host, the resurfacing of certain 'offensive' tweets posted by the actor earlier led him to vacate the position.


Tracee Ellis Ross, who announced the nominees, earlier took to Twitter to share her excitement as well. She wrote, "Oh this is going to be exciting! @KumailN text me when u wake up so we can coordinate our looks. I’m thinking pj’s & glasses... my dressy ones! U? #OscarNoms"
