Rowland will hit the red carpet with singer/actress Kristin Chenoweth and Good Morning America anchor Lara Spencer for the Oscars Red Carpet Live broadcast.


Announcing the exciting news via Twitter.com, Rowland writes, "Thank you (to) The Academy for inviting me to host the Oscars Red Carpet show. I can't wait! Tune in February 24!"
