Jennifer Lopez is taking on hosting duties at next month’s American Music Awards.
The singer and actress will host and perform at the November 22 show, to air live on ABC from the Microsoft Theatre in Los Angeles.
This will be her first time hosting an awards show. Dick Clark Productions, who make the show, said the 46-year-old entertainer will also perform material from her upcoming Las Vegas residency at Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino.
Singers Joe Jonas and Charlie Puth are set to announce AMA nominees on October 13. Nominees are chosen based on album sales, radio airplay, touring and social media.
The show recognises artists with fan-voted awards in such categories as pop/rock, rap/hip-hop, country, Latin and adult contemporary.
