Awards shows have been different this year, and there’s a significant shakeup in theAcademy Awardsformat.
Ariana DeBose ofHamiltonis hosting the pre-show, alongside Lil Rel Howery.
But DeBose, 30, is a woman of many talents and is the quintessential triple threat.

As reported byDance Spirit, DeBose’s training began in the dance world when she was a child.
“I was the comp kid who never actually won anything,” DeBose toldDance Spirit.
(We must say that Regional Outstanding Dancer sounds pretty impressive to us, though.)
