MTV's hit hidden camera show PUNK'D will be returning on March 19th with a different celebrity host each week. The cable network has recently announced that celebrity guest hosts will include Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, Kellan Lutz, Bam Margera and Dax Shepard. Originally hosted and created by Ashton Kutcher, the series became a pop cultural phenomenon.  It uses hidden cameras to pull pranks on many celebrities including Justin Timberlake, Lindsay Lohan, Beyoncé and Zac Efron.

In the season premiere, Khloe Kardashian helps a man with 'genital issues' when she gets punk'd by her friends, Miley Cyrus and Kelly Osbourne.

"What better way to ring in the New Year than to let our audience know that Ashton and MTV are bringing back Punk'd in a big way", said Van Toffler President MTVN Music Group, LOGO and Film. "There's a new generation of unsuspecting suckers just waiting to be Punk'd by their famous friends, and fans will once again have a front row seat to see the shock on the faces of their favorite celebs."

"Punk'd" is taken to a whole new level this season, with more complex, hilarious and fun punks than ever before. For the first time in the series' history, the curtain will be pulled back, giving viewers an inside look at what goes on behind-the-scenes to pull off these elaborate pranks. Get ready for some real outrageously fun moments that you wouldn't expect from your favorite stars!

"Punk'd" is Executive Produced by Katalyst's Jason Goldberg and Ashton Kutcher. Lauren Dolgen, Colin Nash, Kristina Edwards and Jennifer Russakoff are the Executives in Charge of Production for MTV.
