New York - Justin Timberlake is set to host the ESPN sports networks annual awards show, celebrating some of the best and funniest moments in sports over the past year.
The ceremony, to be held at the Nokia Theatre LA Live in Los Angeles on July 20, will be televised live on ESPN, the network said on Wednesday.
Timberlake says he is a sports junkie.
"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," he said.
Timberlake will be in the summertime movie, The Love Guru, with Mike Myers and Jessica Alba.
He recently showed a different kind of stage presence when he inducted Madonna into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
