Rapper Ludacris and model Chrissy Teigen will host the upcoming 2015 Billboard Music Awards (BMA).
American Broadcasting Company (ABC) and Dick Clark productions announced the news on Monday. The annual awards show will thus mark Ludracris' second year in a row serving as its host, reports aceshowbiz.com.
"I had so much fun hosting the Billboard Music Awards last year and I can't wait to be back," Ludacris said in a statement.
Teigen said: "If my extensive collection of all 53 "Now That's What I Call Music" compilations is any indication, I am both qualified and honoured to join Ludacris in hosting this amazing show that spotlights the best music and artists of the year."
The 2015 Billboard Music Awards is slated to be staged at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on May 17. Nominees will be announced on April 7.
