Rebel Wilson Books MTV Movie Awards Host Gig

Call her a Rebel with a mike.

Keeping up with the tradition of landing big-name comedians, MTV has tapped perennial scene-stealer Rebel Wilson to host the 2013 MTV Movie Awards.

The 28-year-old Aussie native can add this latest credit to her ever-expanding resume. Since breaking out in Bridesmaids, Wilson has brought on the funny in this year’s Pitch Perfect, Bachelorette, and What to Expect When You’re Expecting. 

Next, she’ll appear alongside Chris Colfer in Struck by Lightening, the Glee star’s writing and directorial debut, which premiered earlier this year at the Tribeca Film Festival.

Don’t miss the MTV Movie Awards on April 14, 2013!

You can watch a promo for the awards show below, which features a surprise cameo by Rebel’s on-screen Bridesmaids brother, Matt Lucas!
