Union Station is used by hundreds of homeless people in the city, some of whom say they have been 'forced out' of the area by city officials so they don't interfere with the glamor of the star-studded evenings.

One homeless person told Fox 11 that unidentified officials tried to 'force' the unhoused from the surrounds of the historic station to Grand Hotel - 1.5 miles away.

'They came to us about a week ago saying that we had to move by Friday 6 pm because they were trying to clean up for the Oscars and they told us if we didn't move, they were gonna just demolish our stuff,' the homeless man told the news network.

'They forced us to go to the Grand Hotel on 3rd and Figueroa and they kicked everybody out of Union Station so it looks better for the image.'

When Bob Hope hosted .
A smaller group and more focused on awards than presentation.
