==Master of Ceremonies==
A '''host''' can also be known as a ''Master of Ceremonies'' (also used in its abbreviated forms MC or emcee) or compère is the official host of a staged [[event]] or similar [[performance]].
An MC usually presents performers, speaks to the [[audience]], entertains people, and generally keeps the event moving. An MC may also tell [[jokes]] or [[anecdotes]]. The MC sometimes also acts as the [[protocol]] officer during an official [[state]] function.
The term is also used to refer to television game show hosts and/or hostesses. An ''emcee'' [[focuses]] on [[skills]], [[lyric]]al [[ability]], and subject matter.
