The “Wedding Planner” actress is hosting the annual fan-voted award show airing live on CBS and Paramount+ Sunday, May 26. She is also set to perform during what’s expected to be a star-studded event.

“We are thrilled to welcome Jennifer Lopez back to host the American Music Awards,” CEO of Dick Clark Productions Jay Penske said in a statement obtained by Billboard last week.

“Jennifer’s incredible talent and incomparable stage presence make her the ideal host of the show.  We know she will bring her one-of-a-kind energy to the official kick off celebration of summer.”

Lopez is no rookie when it comes to the AMAs, as she solo-hosted the ceremony in 2015.

She has also performed at 10 AMAs and was awarded three accolades for favorite pop/rock female artist in 2003, as well as favorite Latin artist in 2007 and 2011.
