Drew Barrymore announces she is the MTV awards host
Hollywood star Drew Barrymore was set to host the MTV Movie & TV Awards this year.
However, the actress dropped out of her live hosting duties last week, in a show of support for the ongoing WGA Writers’ strike.
Despite her pulling out of hosting duties last minute and sending the ceremony into chaos, Drew went on to win the Best Host Award.
Speaking from her blue and white tiled bathroom, a make-up-free Drew thanked MTV for honouring her with the award.
The actress, who was standing in front of her glass shower door, began her speech by saying: “Thank you so much. I can’t believe this.”

The Charlie’s Angels star then went on to thank three “amazing” writers, before adding: “This is definitely for them and every single person that makes this show.”
Eagle-eyed fans were quick to spot the 50 First Dates actress was addressing them from what appeared to be a bathroom.
One Twitter user @HollyDiabetes pointed out: “She accepted her award on the toilet which is quite fitting the way this has gone.”
Another @DawnCloudRising said: “But in the bathroom?” as they questioned Drew’s choice to film her acceptance speech in a bathroom.
Meanwhile, other fans found it “ironic” that the actress won the Best Host Award, following her decision to stand by the WGA Writers’ strike and not present at this year’s ceremony.
@JaneivaTianna said: “So Drew Barrymore didn’t host the show because of the writers’ strike, won an award for best host and her thank you video thanked her writers.” [sic]
With @wowowow1983 noting: “Lol she won Best Host after rejecting being host.” While @MrScaryPicture joked: “Kinda ironic.”
The MTV Movie & TV Awards is available to stream on MTV or Paramount+ in the US.
