F-bombs and Women Kissing at the MTV Movie Awards By Noel Sheppard Created 06/07/2010 - 12:30
As I walked into the Gibson Amphitheatre at Universal Studios Sunday evening, I had no idea the level of vulgarity I was in store for.
Attending my first MTV Movie Awards, I was immediately stunned by the number of F-words in the opening video clip of Tom Cruise recreating his movie executive roll in the film "Tropic Thunder."
Little did I know that the evening would be filled with F-bombs from a number of Hollywoodans, so much so that the man that accepted the award for best movie at the end of the festivities (Peter Facinelli of the "Twilight" series) commented, "I just want to say I've never heard the word 'f--k' used so many times in one evening."
At that moment, I thought Facinelli was going to comment about just how absurd all the vulgarity was. Instead, he went on an F-bomb-laden speech of his own (video available here [1], others follow, extreme vulgarity warning):
This was Cruise's video that opened the show:
To really shock the crowd, Sandra Bullock decided to kiss Scarlett Johansson at the end of her acceptance speech for the Generation award:
Potentially most revolting were comments made by presenter Aubrey Plaza who for some reason chose to tell the audience, "Megan Fox, I have always wanted to f--k you. And when you threw up on Amanda Seyfried in 'Jennifer's Body,' it made me want to f--k you more. Wherever you are tonight, I'm going to find you, and f--k you."
Amazing. Is that considered fitting at an awards ceremony now?
As the evening drew to a close, and folks began leaving the hall to go to after-parties, I had a chat with one of the cameramen who said that this was by far the worst thing he's ever filmed for MTV.
He told me how saddened he was as a parent that this kind of stuff is now allowed on television albeit cable.
I couldn't agree more.

But Brand, who called for Americans to vote for Democratic nominee Barack Obama in the presidential elections, claimed censors at the channel had already toned down his routine and vetoed several jokes. He said: “I had John McCain gags pulled. And they asked me to tone down the gags about Sarah Palin. I wanted to say she was forcing her teenage daughter to have a baby because she is so anti-abortion. “But also, as a Republican she is pro-execution so she is going to give her the electric chair for being a little slut.
Is that a real person or one of the animated smurfs from Avitar.
(No, I have no idea who she/it is!)
These filthy bastards need to be seen and not heard, if seen at all.
Hate to break it to you but the Hollywood gals are only good looking w/ makeup on. Their everyday face isn’t that noteworthy. It’s the job of Hollywood to sell illusion.
I thought that drunken livestock would be more to Brand’s liking.
Please provide proof that Katy Perry isn’t beautiful.
John took Meghan to the awards? That explains so much.
Isn’t that exactly what one watches MTV awards shows for?
The language of the immature.
Listen to her music ...
I can't stand Jessica Alba, but that don't mean she ain't smokin hot as well!
Too many idiots are blessed with hotness. In this country, being really hot is usually enough for females to succeed. Flame away.
And her sister's no slouch, either.
“Might as well watch a bunch of pimply adolescents trying to ignite farts with a Bic lighter.”
That actually sounds more entertaining than anything MTV shows and definitely a lot more classy than their usual fare. In fact they should steal your idea. I’m sure it’s better than anything their programming geniuses have come up with.
lol and amen!!
Weren’t you just talking about how much you’ve always liked Sandra Bullock? I didn’t watch the attached clips, because judging from the descriptions, that’s just not something I want to see.
I like both, but Zooey’s almost angelic.
