We finally have details on who is hosting the 2016 American Music Awards!
Announced this morning from dick clark productions and ABC, international supermodel Gigi Hadid and actor/comedian Jay Pharoah to co-host the world’s biggest fan-voted award show.
“I’m so excited to host the 2016 AMAs with Jay Pharoah,” said Hadid. “Jay is known for his spot-on impressions so I can’t wait to take the stage with him to show my goofy side and celebrate this year’s nominees!”Â
“Can’t wait to host the AMAs with the beautiful Gigi Hadid (so much innocence in her eyes) and being in the building with some of my industry friends, who I’ve probably impersonated at some point I’m sure,†added Pharoah. “It’s gonna be a fun night!’
In addition to Hadid and Pharoah hosting this year’s show, Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga, James Bay, Fifth Harmony, Green Day, twenty one pilots, John Legend, Shawn Mendes, The Weeknd are slated to perform, including special duets from The Chainsmokers and Halsey, and Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj, and “The American Music Award of Merit†honoree Sting.
