Ellen DeGeneres, who will serve as host of this year's OSCARS on March 2nd, announced on Thursday that her daytime talker, The Ellen DeGeneres Show will air live the day after the awards. Check out the announcement below!

"That means when you see me on the Oscars on Sunday night, you're gonna be like, 'I wonder what she was thinking when that person did that thing' or 'What does Meryl Streepsmell like, really' and I can tell you the next day," she told her studio audience.

Added the comic, "I will be delirious from staying Up All Night long. Not really sure what condition I'll be in. I may be in my pajamas. I sleep naked."

DeGeneres hosted the 79th Academy Awards in 2007, for which she received a Primetime Emmy® nomination for Outstanding Individual Performance in a Variety or Music Program. She has made a home for herself in daytime with her hit Syndicated talk show, "The Ellen Degeneres Show," which has earned a total of 45 Daytime Emmys during its 10 seasons.

Academy Awards for outstanding film achievements of 2013 will be presented on Oscar Sunday, March 2, 2014, at the Dolby Theatre® at Hollywood & Highland Center® and televised live on the ABC Television Network. The presentation also will be televised live in more than 225 countries and territories worldwide.
