 Myers at 2007 Awards
The celeb-filled event is MTV’s irreverent nod to the typical awards shows celebrating the year’s best in movies, stand-out musical performances and more. Hailed for clever, one-of-a-kind film parodies, surprising lip-locking moments from the likes of Will Ferrell and Sacha Baron Cohen, and outrageous acceptance speeches such as Mike Myers’ ode to Austin Powers with a mojo-induced dance number, the MTV Movie Awards has produced some of the most unforgettable and outrageous moments in award show history!
“Mike Myers blew us away last time he hosted the 2007 MTV Movie Awards with his lord of the dance and over the top musical productions,” said Van Toffler, President, MTV Networks Music, Logo and Films Group. “He keeps creating iconic film characters that have been etched in the minds of MTV's audiences forever. The Love Guru is sure to spur yet another cultural movement, so we're elated to have Mike back as our host.”
"I've spent the last year and a half of my life having the most fun ever working on The Love Guru, and now I'm thrilled to have the chance to work with Judy McGrath, Van Toffler and Mark Burnett*,” said Myers. “Hosting the MTV Movie Awards is like a party, but without having to do beer runs in your mom’s mini van; we do beer runs in Will Smith's four-story motor home."
Mike Myers, star of the upcoming film The Love Guru (in theaters June 20), is one of the most multifaceted performers of his generation, having brought a distinct array of characters to life on both film and television. So support this comical genius and all the other stars by seeing who will win a golden popcorn that they can't eat---while you eat yours!
Nominees for the 2008 MTV MOVIE AWARDS will be announced in May. The official 2008 MTV MOVIE AWARDS site launches on April 15.
