Joe Jonas and Alessia Cara will be the unlikely duo hosting the 2017 Much Music Video Awards in Canada. It’s a return to the hosting gig for Joe, who hosted the same awards show in 2009. According to a report, he’s also set to bring DNCE along for a performance of “Kissing Strangers.”
“I’m looking forward to getting back on this stage, at one of my favorite events, to celebrate and to host the show with Alessia,” Joe told iHeartRadio. The measured responses from Joe was a stark contrast to Alessia’s nerd girl quote for iHeart.
“I grew up watching the MMVAs every year in my living room with my family,” she said. “I’m really excited to be a part of it and take the stage in a different way this year. Can’t wait to mess up every line, because I absolutely will!” Sounds like the duo could already be working out who’s going to be the funny one on the night of the show.
Alessia performed at last year’s MMVAs, which were hosted by Joe’s ex, Gigi Hadid. Hopefully, he’s a less controversial host than she was.
