Actress and advocate Jameela will host the 25th Webby Awards, celebrating the best of the internet, in an all-virtual ceremony this year.
“I’m obviously no stranger to the Internet and social media,” said Jamil. “And that’s why I’m so excited to host this year’s show and celebrate those who dare to make the Internet a better, more positive place for us all.”
Jamil, best known for playing Tahani on the sitcom “The Good Place” and hosting HBO Max’s ballroom competition “Legendary,” is a prolific tweeter with over one million followers. In 2018 she launched a movement and activism platform called I Weigh.
