TWO of America's biggest newspapers have slammed Hugh Jackman's selection as Oscar host, saying the Australia star has style and sex appeal, but not enough substance for the top job at the Hollywood's most prestigious awards ceremony.
Critics have questioned Jackman's ability to carry the show, citing his "less than memorable" movie career and a fanbase that is markedly smaller than recent Academy Awards hosts Ellen DeGeneres and Chris Rock.
