The 45-year-old actress will be hosting the show for the third time on air Netflix in the first week of March.
While many awards show hosts make cutting jokes, Bell insists her tone will be lighter.
Speak with The Hollywood Reportershe made it clear: “I don’t roast people.”
Bell made it clear that she doesn’t enjoy roasting other people: “I want to keep it happy and fun. If I’m going to roast anyone, it’s going to be me.”
Bell has reportedly been busy preparing for the big event at home. When asked who she rehearses for, she said, “My children. If a joke survives that room, it can survive anything.”
The actress added that she has done “a lot” of preparations for the ceremony.
“We rehearse the scripts, the beats, the walk-ups, the walk-aways, the camera tracks,” she said.
“I practice reading a teleprompter, I practice pretending I’m not reading a teleprompter even though I absolutely am. On the day of the show, it’s basically muscle memory,” Kristen added.
For those unfamiliar, Bell previously made history as the very first host of the awards in 2018 and returned last year.
Bell also revealed that she worked on the script with her good friend Monica Padman.
‘I worked with my dear friend Monica Padman. She knows better than anyone how to write for my voice.’
Reflecting on the upcoming ceremony, she shared in a statement, “I’ve enjoyed hosting the show every time, so it was an easy decision to come back for a third. What I’m most excited about is the fact that I’ll be doing what every actor does best: singing.”
