The no-holds-barred comedian Amy Schumer will host the 2015 MTV Movie Awards.
MTV chose the younger and prettier but equally hilarious Schumer after late-night host Conan O'Brien emceed the fan-favorite ceremony last year. The awards will air on Sunday, April 12, at 9 p.m. from the Nokia Theater L.A. Live in Los Angeles.
"I am honored to be hosting the awards," Schumer said. "I will carry the audience with me like a teen mom #breaktheinternet #breakmywater."
Schumer took over the MTV Twitter in the hour before she made the big announcement. She also introduced her hosting #StarterPack which includes a glass of red wine, condoms, a pair of Spanx and, of course, the MTV "golden popcorn" trophy.
