MTV’s “TRL” is back and bigger than ever!

Literally, as its rotation of hosts and correspondents is quite extensive and contains a mix of both online personalities and entertainment reporters.

“Total Request Live,” which began on MTV in 1998 with Carson Daly as the host, ended in 2008, but now, almost 10 years later, the network has decided it’s time for a reboot of the hit live series.

Airing from the iconic Times Square studio, the series will once again feature performances and interviews with hit artists of today, with the show’s hosts bringing it all together. While Daly will not be returning as host, MTV has snagged quite a few stars who millennials watching the show will likely recognize.

DC Young Fly

The 25-year-old Atlanta native started making comedic videos on Vine of himself roasting celebrities, and he also began posting videos to YouTube, as well. Besides social content, he’s also a rapper and an actor. He’s been on Nick Cannon’s “Wild ‘N Out” and was in the 2016 film “Almost Christmas.”

Erik Zachary

While he’ll be hosting a show on TV this time around, hosting in general is nothing new for Zachary as he’s an on-air host for 103.5 Kiss FM in Chicago, which is a radio station that’s part of the iHeartMedia family.

An actress since 2011, with her film and TV career really kicking off in 2016 with a starring role in the TV series “Confess,” Pham is set to take on the role of host for the “TRL” reboot. Besides acting and hosting, she’s also a DJ who has performed with many of today’s top artists.

Tamara Dhia

Dhia is no stranger to the world of interviewing celebrities and being in the middle of pop culture as she’s coming to MTV after working for Complex. An opportunity she’s extremely excited about.

“When I was a kid, I used to watch @TRL religiously,” she captioned a photo on Instagram to announce she’s joined the MTV family. “I would pretend to be a ‘VJ’ alongside Carson Daly and LaLa using the TV remote as my microphone. My brothers would make fun of me but I didn’t care. Fast forward to 2017, not only is it back but I am now a ‘TRL’ host standing on this stage where so many iconic pop culture moments happened. I can’t believe this is real life. My dream has now become a reality and I’m so damn grateful that after all those years what people said was true...hard work pays off.”
