Monday, June 1, 2009 at 12:04AM Ugh: Brüno, Slim Shady, MTV Movie Awards
If I had to pick a worst moment from the MTV Movie Awards, I'd probably go with the moment I decided to watch it. Pretty damn painful, as usual. And what happened to MTV? Do adults still work there? Twilight, High School Musical, and Miley Cyrus accounted for eight of the 11 winners. In fact, the only categories they didn't win were Best WTF Moment, Best Villain, and Best Comedic Performance.

The Bruno stunt was awful! It was uncomfortable at best. Do you have any idea if Eminem knew about it though? Obviously Bruno was in on it, but Eminem didn't appear to be. Nor did his entourage. Any ideas?
He had to know, just for insurance reasons. If you're MTV, there's no way you have a guy swoop down on a multi-millionaire like that. Could you imagine the lawsuit if he got kneed in the head? Plus, I don't think his crew would have let Cohen off so easily.
JIm Carrey for Yes Man? REALLY???
Obviously staged. Didn't even bother watching, glanced over the nominees, saw slumdog millionaire in the same category as high school musical and twilight and never gave a second thought to turning the show on for even a second. I'm 17 myself and I'm almost embarrassed to think that adults look at kids like me and think terrible movies like that and goofy no-brain stunts encompass us.
I read somewhere they setup a 360 camera setup like in the matrix for there red carpet, that sounded interesting. We have video of that?
Yea the categories and winners just garbage... I still watched it however.
That was so staged that little stunt...
I thought it was crazy though, I mean its Eminem!
