Vancouver Island’s own Nelly Furtado is hosting the Juno awards in Halifax tonight, and she will also be performing.
Furtado, from Victoria, has been making a comeback lately, performing vocals songs by Dom Dolla and Justin Timberlake.
Furtado’s debut album in 2000 still holds influence today, with “Turn Off The Light” and “I’m Like A Bird” known and beloved by generations of Canadians.
The singer will emcee the awards show tonight and will also perform a number.
The awards will also feature Maestro Fresh Wes, who is being inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, and Calgary duo Tegan and Sara.
The show starts at 5 pm tonight on CBC television.
