Famous rapper Pitbull will once again host this year's American Music Awards.

"Pitbull is going global again! Mr. Worldwide is set to host the AMAs on November 23rd at 8pm ET on ABC! Get ready to have some fun," a post on the rapper's website www.pitbullmusic.com said on Monday.

He is also set to perform at the event which will be held at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles. It will also be aired live on ABC, Dick Clark Productions confirmed, as reported by Time magazine.

Meanwhile, a news report published by The Hollywood Reporter quoted the famous rapper saying "World, who would have thought Pitbull hosting the AMAs two years in a row." 

The statement added, "The harder I work, the luckier I get. Thank you ABC and dick clark productions for the amazing opportunity - more than anything, let's get ready to have fun. Dale!"

Pitbull also hosted last year's American Music Awards. The Hollywood Reporter said that the previous year's event was a "ratings success," due to the 12.93 million total viewers.

AMA producer Larry Klein described Pitbull as a "global superstar multi-talented powerhouse." Klein also promises the public that this year's event will be "no different." He added that they have worked together to produce a show that will wow the audience and "take the night to a whole new level," Hollywood Reporter said in the same report.

Aside from the "platinum-selling rapper," Charli XCX or Charlotte Emma Aitchison in real life, the English singer and song writer famous for the song "Fancy" with Iggy Azalea, is also set to perform during the show.
