Laura Marano Opens Up About Hosting the ARDYs Summer Playlist Special (Exclusive)

Laura Marano is dishing on her hosting duties THIS Friday (July 10)!

The 24-year-old former Disney Channel star is returning to the network to host the Radio Disney Presents ARDYs Summer Playlist.

“I am so happy to be hosting the ARDYs! I have such wonderful memories of both my Disney Channel days and being a part of past RDMAs, so I was incredibly excited when I was asked to be the host this year,” Laura exclusively told JJJ. “I think this show is going to be very special this year, and our goal is to get all the families watching from their homes to dance and sing along with us throughout the show.”

Laura also revealed to us her favorite moment from past ARDYs/Radio Disney Music Awards shows.

“This is such a tough question because I truly have so many favorite moments (I know it sounds cheesy, but it’s true!). I think I would have to pick performing ‘Boombox’ live for the first time on television,” she said. “Not only did I get to perform with the lovely Sabrina Carpenter and Sofia Carson, but I literally got to do the ‘Boombox’ performance of my dreams. I was so nervous before stepping on that stage, but then I ended up having the best time.”
