This weekend the most eccentric bash will be televised with the MTV Movie Awards 2016. Hosted by Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart, the cable network has organized an event like no other. Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank will be the center of the show where some of the biggest names in pop culture will gather to celebrate film. Ariana Grande is confirmed to perform her new single "Dangerous Woman." This will also mark Grande's first time at the show. Halsey is another scheduled musical act that will premiere "Castle," from the soundtrack for the forthcoming Universal release, "The Huntsman: Winter's War." The singer said in a statement: "This will be the first time I perform 'Castle.' This song is so important to me as a woman; it's about not letting anything get in your way. I'm so happy MTV & the Huntsman are giving me the opportunity to present that message on television. Plus it'll look sick."
