Q&A: Why Megan Mullally Won’t Talk Politics While Hosting the SAG Awards

The “Will & Grace” star can also sing and dance. While she’s not picking up the Oscar hosting gig after the Kevin Hart fiasco, Mullally will take center stage on Sunday, Jan. 27 when she makes her debut as the host of the 25th annual SAG Awards. Variety caught up with Mullally shortly after the hosting announcement was made to talk SAG Awards prep, why she won’t be riffing on politics during the show and the one person she’s hoping to meet on the big day. Well I first heard them say, “Will you be our ho…?” and I was like, ‘Yeah, I can be your ho!” But then it turns out they actually said “host.” And I was like, “Oh okay, well I could do that, too.” How do you prepare? I had a couple of ideas that are funny that require some shooting some stuff outside of the actual live broadcast, so we’ll see. I don’t think it’s that kind of night. Was hosting the SAG Awards ever part of the plan? But I do think it’s really cool that they asked me to host because [hosts are] not always women. [Laughs] A lot of people did say that though, on social media, when they announced I was hosting. So who’s your favorite awards show host of all time?
