We're Very Happy To Announce…
Filed under: Lily Allen > Music Minute > Katy Perry
This summer's breakout musical sensation, Katy Perry, has been chosen to host the MTV Europe Music Awards, live from Liverpool on November 6th.
We'll be joining the Hot 'n' Cold singer as the "Digital Host" and a presenter for the evening.
Katy has also been nominated in two categories, for best new act and most addictive track.
You know she's bound to at least win one - she's hosting!
Richard Godfrey, the executive producer of 2008 MTV EMAs, is exited to have her on board as well. Says Godfrey, "Katy Perry has been one of the freshest and most successful new artists to emerge on the international music scene this year which is witnessed by her nomination in two categories in this year's awards. We want to pursue a much more informal and relaxed role for the host at this year's awards but with a definite musical twist and we think Katy will be perfect."
This will be Katy's first time hosting an awards show, so let's wish her luck.
She'll be joined with performances by Pink, Kind Rock, Beyonce, The Killers, Duffy, and many more.
And joining us to present will be, Beyonce's lil sis Solange Knowles, Sugababes, and Tokio Hotel.
In a statement by Perry, the singer says, "I was so excited when I heard that I was nominated for two awards, but when I was asked to host the show I wet myself, Fergie-style! To follow in the footsteps of previous hosts Christina Aguilera, Tom Jones, P. Diddy and Snoop Dogg at this prestigious event is an incredible honor. Do they know what they're getting themselves into? I just hope that I don't spill my cocktail!"
Well, as long as she doesn't get wasted on stage like Lily Allen, then she's all good!

Re: Candi Apples –
I agree. She doesn't have the best style does she? LOL
Wow - is she milking her 15 minutes.
Of course I speak from my jealous heart.
hahahaha "fergie style" i abs. love this girl
Can't wait to watch!! Fuck everyone who thought she was a one hit wonder!!
ps. Why isn't Perez talking about Britney?? It's killing me!
I love Katy Perry! She's definitely an asset to the music business. Everything from her talent to her individualism. I can't wait for her next CDs. She's a star.
i love this bizatch
She has no fuckin talent! which explain's why every music critic in the world from rolling stone to the washington post has not just panned her album but destroyed it! her voice live sounds like ashlee simpson! where's the "talent"? PS. It's kid rock not "kind rock" dipshit.
YAY Katy! I'm so proud of her, shes worked so hard. True talent.
i have a question is mcfly going?? They are from europe
I totally thought she was british, then I was talking to my sister about her and she was like DUH LAUREN she grew up here in Cali!! I felt like an idoit..
kind rock LOLLL.
Acutually perez….she's just a 1 hit wonder. It's sad to see you cling to her in hopes that fame will transition from her to you. Her group is just trying to make the most out of her while they can, hence host a European awards show and make some quick cash. Stop trying to force her down your readers throats.
Wet herself, Fergie style… wow… Why doesn't she try to get some class instead ?
I hope she was a 1 1/2 hit wonder !!
She's so adorable!
she looks good here, I'll give her that. Nice dress and nice posture.
i luv katy shes the shit at the moment
All she's done is release a single! MTV can do so much better. Now I have to watch her all evening instead of watching someone competent. MTV should let Russel do his thing and not censure him so he can do the EMAs too. The only positive thing about this is that she wont perform.
I just don't see what is so great about this girl? I don't care for that song I kissed a girl either, it has nothing to do w/ kissing a girl I just don't care for it, esp hearing it on the radio every 15 mins ALL day at work!!!!!! She did step outside of the box a lil w/ that song though I'll give her that, but I think Perez wants to be her!!!!!!
Re: Lene – Miley Cyrus…hate that girl…:@
