Hosting gig to help launch 'Love Guru' hype

By JOSEF ADALIAN

Mike Myers will host the MTV Movie Awards on June 1. Mark Burnett is again exec producing.

Myers will use the cabler's annual movie kudos to help hype launch of "Love Guru."

"Guru" -- which marks Myers' attempt to establish a new film franchise outside of his "Austin Powers" pics -- opens June 20.

Myers last hosted the MTV Awards in 1997, the same year the first "Austin Powers" pic opened.
