Jason Sudeikis to Host 2011 MTV Movie Awards

It’s hard to believe that the MTV Movie Awards still exist, but they do, and this year, SNL star Jason Sudeikis will host them. The 20th annual ceremony will take place on June 5 in California.
“I’m sincerely flattered that the folks from the Mostly Teenage Viewers network have invited me to host this year, and I look forward to keeping the streak of flawless and critically lauded movie awards show hosting in 2011 alive,” Sudeikis said.
In addition to his appearances on SNL over the past six years, the actor will also appear this summer opposite Jason Bateman and Charlie Day in Horrible Bosses.
Stephen Friedmen, president of MTV, said, “Smart and funny is the new rock and roll for our audience – and that combo pretty much sums up Jason. He is a smartass and a gentleman who never goes for the easy or obvious joke. Because of that, he is the ideal Movie Awards host, and we are confident with him anchoring the show, our audience is in store for unexpected and crazy moments with Hollywood’s biggest stars and musicians.”
The MTV Movie Awards nominees are based off of viewer votes at MovieAwards.MTV.com, and will be announced on May 3. The nontraditional categories include Best Fight, Best Kiss, Biggest Badass Star, Best Villain, and naturally, Best Movie.
