The blow by blow as it happens. Live reporting, folks:
Sarah Silverman is pretty bad-ass.
“You’ve been in all my favorite actresses.” Oh Jack Nicholson. I love you.
Not one to run from controversy, Sarah Silverman just called Paris Hilton out. Big time. After mentioning that Paris was going to jail in a few days, the audience cheered. You could tell, when the camera cut to her, that her feathers were ruffled, but she didn’t seem to cave. Then, Sarah said that they were attempting to make it a bit easier for her in jail by insuring that the bars look like penises. Sarah added that she was afraid Paris would break her teeth on them. Ouch! If looks could have killed, Paris would have murdered Sarah like Rose McGowan shooting a zombie with a shotgun pegleg.
You can see Sarah and Paris in action in the video below: (Update: The video seems to have disappeared from Youtube. However, it’s still hanging out on the web elsewhere.)
Sarah Silverman Blasts Paris Hilton At The MTV Awards
Unsurprisingly, Jack Nicholson won the “Best Villain” category for The Departed. Am I the only one who was seriously pissed off after watching that movie? A good movie, but the most infuriating.
Bruce Willis just said, “Yippie-Ki-yay, mother fucker!” He and Justin Long are presenting the award for “Best Fight.”
Gerard Butler, of course, wins. The Immortal couldn’t make it. Bruce just corrected Gerard when he referred to the popcorn as metal. Apparently the popcorn is solid gold. I need one of those. And now he’s getting chased off by the fat guy who chases off people who talk too much. They should really let him talk more. We need more Scottish accents in this broadcast.
Why didn’t I know about this video spoof contest? I would have entered, I swear.
Chris Tucker and Victoria Beckham introduce Rhianna.
Rhianna and Jay-Z perform. Fireworks. Fire-hazards. Dancers. Dominatrix outfit. Amanda Bynes really likes this song. She’s cute. Fergie likes it, too. Umbrellas. Paris Hilton seems to be recovering okay from that earlier joke. I’ve got to give it to her - it takes some balls to be able to withstand that kinda of public joking and still keep a smile on your face.
Adam Sandler, Kevin James and Jessica Beil from “I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry” present “Best Kiss.”
Will Ferrell and Sasha Baron Cohen from “Talladega Nights” won. I admit, that was my choice. And I love Sasha’s accent.
Okay, Will Ferrell and Sasha Baron Cohen just made out on stage. There should be more of this.
And you know I’m totally going to be watching Transformers. Optimus Prime for the win.
Now some random internet fan is presenting the award for “Best Breakthrough Performance.”
Jayden Smith won. He’s accepting via video and his parents are cracking me up.
Dane Cook has been presenting the video spoofs that made it onto the show.
The Orbit chick just presented the “Dirty Mouth” award to Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes. God bless those advertisers.
Robin Williams, John Krasinski and Mandy Moore present for “Best Comedic Performance.” This situation is in some dire need of some Pam Beesley.
No surprise that Sasha Baron Cohen takes home the Best Comedic Performance award. Apparently, Borat couldn’t make it. Sasha says that he’s experiencing the difficulties of fame and has checked himself into rehab.
Whenever Sarah Silverman thinks of white people with Hispanic names, she thinks of Cameron Diaz, who is presenting The MTV Generation Award to Mike Myers. Who accepts with a choreographed dance number.
Samuel L. Jackson is now presenting the award for best user generated spoof to “United 300.”
Bruce Willis introduces Amy Winehouse performing “Rehab.” I kinda love this song.
Eva Mendes and Seth Rogan now present “Best Summer Movie You Haven’t Seen Yet.” A very odd category. How exactly do you thank people for that one?
Transformers won with Michael Bay, Josh Duhamel, Shia Lebouf and Tyrese Gibson accepting and Shia insists that Transformers will be “sick.” I really am looking forward to it. What can I say? I’m a child of the 80s.
Tyrese Gibson, Shia Lebouf and Josh Duhamel are back presenting the award for “Best Performance”. Johnny Depp wins. OMG. He’s there. Please excuse me while I turn back into a thirteen year old fangirl.
John Travolta, Zach Efron and Amanda Bynes present the “big one.” Best Movie. Which goes to Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest. With Johnny Depp and Jerry Bruckheimer accepting.
“Without him, we wouldn’t be here.” Jerry says about Johnny. Amen.
Gerard Butler seemed a little sad that the last two awards went to Pirates. I kinda hate that in a way. It really wasn’t a fair fight. Johnny fangirls are a force to be reckoned with. And Pirates has a maddeningly devoted fanbase. I mean, I’m a fan myself, but I got my butt kicked for my not so stellar review of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End.
I actually really enjoyed Dead Man’s Chest, though. And I loved 300. I’d have them both over as brilliantly diverse dinner guests. Imagine: Pirates and Spartans. Dining over nearly cold delivery pizza. It would be fantastic.
The MTV Movie Awards is a film awards show presented annually on MTV (Music Television). It also contains movie parodies that used official movie footage with hosts and other celebrities and music performances. The nominees are decided by a special panel at Tenth Planet Productions, the production company headed by Joel Gallen, who also created the MTV Movie Awards. Winners are decided by the general public. Presently voting is done through MTV’s official website through a special Movie Awards link.
Unlike sister event the MTV Video Music Awards (which are broadcast live), the MTV Movie Awards (up to 2006) were taped and then broadcast a few days later[1]. The entire production was taped in a completely different order than what the MTV viewing audience saw. For example, the show’s host would tape all his/her monologues and introductions at one time, and all the musical acts would perform one after the other. Celebrities would often only appear at the live taping for the announcement of their award category, and members of the general audience fill their vacant seats during the other times. Through clever editing, MTV was able to present to its viewing audience an awards show which appears to be taped in live sequence, with celebrities sticking around for the whole show. This method of production allowed foul language to be edited from the show and also is more convenient for celebrities. The actual live taping aired same-day on pay-per-view channels in most metropolitan cities around the world. Some awards telecasts had also been shown in television syndication. However, in 2007, this changed, as MTV and Survivor producer Mark Burnett (who took over duties from Joel Gallen for the 2007 awards) announced the ‘07 edition would be broadcast live on MTV for the first time on June 3, 2007 in Los Angeles.
