^^^Don't say " Very Important People," because , then you add the intimidation factor as well. Being nervous is normal. You said their is a podium, so hold on to that, and if you can't make eye contact, just pick a focal point at random, and speak to that. Deep breathes before you start, and just remember that they are the same as you "people".
Bringing a few Jello shots in a Ziploc bag wouldn't hurt.
Good Luck!
