Dec. 1 (UPI) -- Chelsea Handler will return to host the Critics Choice Awards.
The Critics Choice Association (CCA) announced Friday that Handler, an actress and comedian, will host the 29th annual awards show in January.
The Critics Choice Awards take place each year to honor the finest in cinematic and television achievement. TV nominations will be announced Dec. 5, with film nominations to follow Dec. 13.
The 2024 ceremony will be held Jan. 14 and air at 7 p.m. EST on The CW. The event will mark Handler's second consecutive year as host.
"I am very happy and excited to be hosting the Critics Choice Awards again this year, as last year was one of the most fun nights I've had," Handler said in a press release. "There is no greater reward than making fun of actors and then getting drunk with them afterward. It's an honor."
