Justin Timberlake Set To Host ESPY Awards

Los Angeles, CA (CNS) - Justin Timberlake is set to host the annual ESPY Awards by ESPN. The "SexyBack" singer has been tapped to emcee the award show for this year's best and funniest moments in sports.

Timberlake, who confessed to be a sports enthusiast, says, "I'll do my best to deliver a great show, as I do not want to be roughed up backstage by these athletes who are bigger, faster, and stronger than me."

ESPN has announced that the event will take place at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles on July 20.

The former 'N Sync member will also be seen next Mike Myers in the comedy film "The Love Guru," which will be released on June 20.
