39 WTF Moments From E3 2015

31. Aisha Tyler's Cringe-Worthy Hosting Job (Again)

Ever since she started hosting the Ubisoft E3 presser back in 2012, actress and comedian Aisha Tyler has been a divisive choice of emcee, with her attempts at humour being cited as "cringe-worthy" by many gamers, while others suggested that she's simply trying hard to inject a little pep and excitement into a show that could certainly just be a boring corporate event like EA's conferences tend to be. While her defenders are right to a point, the cringe certainly came back in abundance this year, with a ton of corny jokes that simply didn't land, overt references to memes, needless profanity and a surprising amount of flubbed lines. Love her or hate her, though, she's probably not going away any time soon, because she gets people talking and is clearly aware of the criticism, though doesn't seem to care much for it. The alternative to just not watching the show, of course, is to hit the mute button every time she shows up.
