And MTV's president thinks Jason is the perfect man for the job this year!

"Smart and funny is the new rock and roll for our audience — and that combo pretty much sums up Jason. He is a smarta** and a gentleman who never goes for the easy or obvious joke," Stephen Friedman said. "Because of that, he is the ideal Movie Awards host, and we are confident with him anchoring the show, our audience is in store for unexpected and crazy moments with Hollywood's biggest stars and musicians."
