Hugh Jackman gives Oscar hosting tips to James Franco, Anne Hathaway

One-time host Hugh Jackman has given a simple tip to Anne Hathaway and James Franco, who will be hosting the Oscars this year.

"Have fun!" advised Jackman, who hosted Hollywood's big night all by himself in 2009.

Jackman, 42, shared his suggestion while attending Friday night's Audi Forum Dallas pre-Superbowl cocktail party, reports People Magazine.

"Enjoy the gala! Enjoy the first hour, the first hour and a half. From that moment on, there are a lot of seat fillers out there and people who are really tired," he said.

Jackman's appearance as host received critical acclaim for his high energy, his singing and dancing, and his sex appeal.
