YouTube personality Kingsley and journalist Danielle Robay will host the LIVE red carpet event pre-show, which kicks-off at 6:45 p.m. EDT. Again, it can be live-streamed on Fox’s website or app, but those without a cable subscription can watch on the TCA Facebook page . The hosts will chop it up with celebrities including Jessica Alba, Jennifer Garner, Lea Michele, Sarah Hyland, NE-YO, Chris Evans, Daisy Ridley, Shay Mitchell and Ashley Benson, just some of the celebrities scheduled to attend the event tonight.
Additionally, five-time NBA champion Kobe Bryant will present the “Decade Award” to Justin Timberlake. Just Jared notes how it was just a couple weeks ago when Justin presented Kobe with a special honor at the ESPYs. So it seems Kobe is returning the favor.
Four-time TEEN CHOICE 2016 nominee Charlie Puth will perform his hit single, “ We Don’t Talk Anymore ,” and Serayah, from Fox’s hit music drama series Empire, will also perform. Victoria Justice and John Cena are hosting the main show.
“I’m mainly excited to goof off with John Cena,” Justice told Women’s Wear Daily . “I feel like he has to lift me at some point; that is necessary. I’ve never hosted anything live like this, so I’m a little nervous.”
