Two of some of MTV’s hottest stars have been tapped to host the second annual MTV Fandom Awards taking place in early July.
The Fandom Awards honors diehard fans whose tenacious excitement has pushed movies, TV shows, books and comics from subculture to mainstream worldwide success in the past year.
“As a complete fan girl myself, I cannot explain how amazing it will be to host the ‘MTV Fandom Awards,’ said Bella Thorne. It’s going to be really fun and I can’t wait to hit the stage with Tyler.”
“I had such a blast last year as a nominee and a winner at the ‘MTV Fandom Awards’ that yes was my only answer when I was presented the chance to host the show,” said Tyler Posey. The fans have loved and supported ‘Teen Wolf’ for so long so this is another cool way to celebrate with them.”
