This post may come a bit late since the annual MTV Movie Awards was held almost two months ago. I have been pre-occupied lately that it is only now that I managed to come up with a post regarding the event.

The MTV Movie Awards 2011 was a night filled with vampire actors, scene-stealers, superstars, and all the chaos you expect to find in an MTV event. This year’s event was held at the Gibson Amphitheater in University City, California on June 5, 2011.

The event was hosted by Saturday Night Live’s Jason Sudeikis wherein his opening monologue was one of the highlights of the night as he literally made fun of the celebrities that were there for the night. Some of the celebrities that were particularly made fun of at the opening moments of the show were Selena Gomez, Kristen Stewart, and Chelsea Handler.

The star-studded event was attended by many celebrities who were also presenters for various awards for the night. Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake co-presented the Best Male Performance award to Robert Pattinson for his movie The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. Fittingly enough, his female counterpart for the film, Kristen Stewart, also bagged the Best Female Performance award, as presented by Ashton Kutcher and Nicki Minaj. For the Best Villain award, Tom Felton took home the trophy for his performance at the Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows movie and was presented by Ryan Gosling, Steve Carell, and Emma Stone.

The Best Jaw Dropping Moment award was given to Justin Bieber for his 3D film, Never Say Never, who also made a surprise appearance at the award show. The trophy for the award was co-presented by Nick Swardson, Aziz Ansari, and Danny McBride. The Best Fight award was once again won by Eclipse in a fight scene that involved Robert Pattinson versus Xavier Samuel and Bryce Dallas Howard.

And for the infamous Best Kiss award, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively gave the trophy to real-life and on-screen sweethearts Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson. This also gave way to another one of many highlights to the MTV Movie Awards 2011 wherein instead of kissing Kristen Stewart on-stage, Robert Pattinson ran off to the audience and towards Taylor Lautner’s seat to plant a kiss on his cheek.

Other major awards presented on the MTV Movie Awards 2011 are as follows: Best Breakout Star for Chloe Grace Moretz in Kick-Ass, Best Comedic Performance for Emma Stone in Easy A, Best Scared Ass S**t Performance for Ellen Page in Inception, and Biggest Badass Star for Chloe Grace Moretz in Kick-Ass. Several artists also graced the show with their musical performances, namely Miley Cyrus and Bret Michaels, the Foo Fighters, and Lupe Fiasco.

Gary Bussey presented the Best Movie award to The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, which beat out other nominations such as The Black Swan, Inception, Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows Part 1, and The Social Network. The audience of the MTV Movie Awards 2011 were also able to glimpse clips of upcoming movies due for release this summer that includes Super 8, Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows Part II, and the Breaking Dawn trailer. Finally, Reese Witherspoon was given the most prestigious award for this year’s event, which is the MTV Generation Award.
