The 2012 MTV Movie Awards are scheduled to take place in coming June, while British comedian Russell Brand will host the colourful ceremony for the first time in the history of this event.
The upcoming edition of the MTV Movies Awards will take centre stage in Los Angeles this year.
Brand, who is known for his raunchy, off-the-cuff humour, has promised to give the audience something "more impressive than ‘The Avengers”. Sounds exciting, doesn’t it?
In this regard, the President of MTV Stephen Friedman shared his views in the following manner: "With his amazing ability to span the full spectrum of comedy from the most high to low brow, Russell’s smart, unpredictable wit uniquely connects him to our
audience.”
This year’s nominees are led by post-apocalyptic film "The Hunger Games" and female comedy "Bridesmaids," with eight nominations each. The awards show also celebrates irreverent categories such as best kiss and best fight.
Russell will be joined by a star-studded list of presenters handing out MTV’s golden popcorn statuettes, including Emma Stone, Andrew Garfield, Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron, Mila Kunis and Mark Wahlberg, while New York indie-pop band fun. will be performing
at the show.
Previous hosts of the show have included Jimmy Fallon, Aziz Ansari, Eddie Murphy, Will Smith, Lindsay Lohan, Sarah Jessica Parker and Jason Sudeikis.
