MuchMusic announced today that two big Canadians have been added to the 2010 MMVAs presenter roster. Jonathan Toews, fresh off of his Stanley Cup win with the Chicago Blackhawks last night, adds his winning touch to the already stacked presenters list at the 2010 MUCHMUSIC VIDEO AWARDS.
TV star and Toronto’s own Shenae Grimes is also set to present. Toews has had a whirlwind year, winning a Gold Medal with Team Canada at the 2010 Olympic Games and receiving the honour as best forward in the tournament. As Captain of the NHL’s Chicago Blackhawks, Toews lead his team to a Stanley Cup win and nabbed the Conn Smythe trophy as the most valuable player in the 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs. Shenae Grimes returns to her hometown to heat up the red carpet and reunite with former castmates Drake, Nina Dobrev, and Charlotte Arnold. MuchMusic airs the biggest street-party of the year on Sunday, June 20 at 9 p.m. ET with the 2010 MMVAs RED CARPET SPECIAL airing at 8 p.m. ET. Viewers in the U.S. can watch a simulcast on Fuse.
