Jamie Foxx will host the 2018 BET Awards.



The 'Beat Shazam' presenter - who previously fronted the ceremony in 2009 - will take the reins of the annual ceremony at Los Angeles' Microsoft Theater on June 24, it has been announced.



The 50-year-old singer-and-actor's appointment as presenter comes a week after the nominations were announced for this year's ceremony.



DJ Khaled leads the pack with six nods, while Kendrick Lamar follows closely behind with four.



Meanwhile, Jamie recently admitted he used to "stalk" celebrities at The Roxbury club in Los Angeles when he was struggling to make it as a comedian.
