Last year we laughed at his pain, and this year Kevin Hart is laughing all the way to the bank.

The comedian will cap his breakthrough year by hosting the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards. The gig is the icing on the cake of a year which saw Hart become one of the most popular funnymen in Hollywood, starring in the sleeper hit Think Like a Man, landing a recurring role on Modern Family and, of course, he hosted the BET Awards back in 2011.

To kick off his hosting duties, Hart teamed up with celebrity "It" couple Kim Kardashian and Kanye West for this hilarious video, in which he becomes the third wheel in their high-profile relationship. Kev-Ye-Kim? Ye-Kev-Kim? You be the judge.

Catch the MTV Video Music Awards on September 6 at 8 p.m.
