"This year will be our most dynamic show yet. We are moving to a new, larger venue - the PlayStation Theater in Times Square, so we wanted a host with a personality that fit the theme and energy of the show," Shorty Awards co-founder and CEO of Muck Rack, Gregory Galant told Mashable. "Tony's comedy is a great blend of sincerity and zingers, which fit perfectly with the Shorty Awards style. We're excited to have him host this year and look forward to seeing what surprises he has up his sleeve."

Last year's Shorty winners included Instagrammer Baddie Winkle, DJ Khaled, and Pizza Rat.

"I'm FASCINATED by all the digital media out there," Hale added. "I'm a sucker for the bad lip reading videos but still learning and can't wait to meet all the artists at the show. It's going to be a blast."

The Shorty Awards will take place on April 23.
