Timberlake, Scott to Host MTV Awards
NEW YORK – Justin Timberlake of ‘N Sync and Seann William Scott of “Bulletproof Monk” and the “American Pie” movies will co-host the MTV Movie Awards.
The ceremony, which includes categories such as best villain and best kiss alongside best movie and best male and female performance, is set for May 31 at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. The 12th annual show is scheduled to air on MTV at 9 p.m. EDT June 5.
“You could not ask for a more dynamic duo than Justin and Seann to help celebrate the year in movies,” MTV president Van Toffler said Tuesday. “The MTV Movie Awards has always been about the twisted, unexpected moments and this year’s show will no doubt provide our audience with a night of celebrity sloppiness and fun.”
“Spider-Man” and “The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers” lead the nominations with five each. Viewers can vote for their favorites at MTV’s Web site.
