OTTAWA (Hollywood Reporter) - Pamela Anderson has signed to host the Juno Awards, Canada's version of the Grammys, which will take place in Halifax, Nova Scotia on April 2.
Past hosts include Shania Twain and Alanis Morissette. But the Vancouver Island-born Anderson, who is better known for dating rock stars than for her musical talent, represents the awards show's most globally branded host to date.
"She's famous around the world, but Pamela will feel right at home in Halifax," said Susanne Boyce, president of programming at broadcaster CTV, which will air the show.
Rock band Nickelback leads the pack with six nominations, followed by jazz star Diana Krall and Michael Buble with five nominations each. Arcade Fire, Neil Young and the Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra each have three nominations. Nickelback and Buble will perform, as will Bryan Adams and Coldplay.
