Nigeria, 15 April 2013: Host Rebel Wilson set
the tone for the “2013 MTV Movie Awards”, opening the show with a
live, high-energy medley of Miley Cyrus’ “The
Climb”, Eminem’s “Lose Yourself”, Alicia
Keys’ “Girl on Fire” and Macklemore and Ryan
Lewis’ “Thrift Shop”, joined by several of her “Pitch
Perfect” co-stars.
Telecast live from Sony Pictures Studios
Lot, in Culver City, CA, the “2013 MTV Movie Awards” was filled
with unexpected moments from the brightest stars in Hollywood and the hottest
emerging talent in music. The annual
event officially kicks off the blockbuster season, treating fans to a first
look of the year’s most-anticipated films.
Hosted by Rebel Wilson, the “2013
MTV Movie Awards” broadcast live on MTV (DStv Channel 130) on Monday 15 April at 03:30 CAT. For another chance to watch the show, tune
into MTV at 19:00 CAT, Tuesday 17 April.
The night was also a chance to look back on
the films adored by fans over the past year. “The Avengers” and “Silver
Linings Playbook” took home three golden popcorn trophies each, while
global icon Brad Pitt made a rare public appearance to recognize “The
Avengers” as MOVIE OF THE YEAR. The Marvel film also received
recognition for BEST VILLAIN, honouring Tom Hiddleston’s turn as Loki, and
BEST FIGHT, which was presented to Hiddleston, Chris Evans and Samuel
L. Jackson. Fans were also treated to a clip of the forthcoming “Star Trek” blockbuster, introduced by stars Chris
Pine, Zoe Saldana and Zachary Quinto.
Academy
Award®-winning actor and Grammy Award®-winning artist Jamie Foxx scored a golden popcorn for
BEST WTF MOMENT along with his “Django
Unchained” co-star Samuel L.
Jackson, and Foxx was further
recognized for his outstanding career with the GENERATION AWARD, presented by Kerry Washington. Not nominated for
an Academy Award®, but receiving recognition at the “2013 Movie Awards” was the film “Ted”, which won for BEST ON-SCREEN DUO with Mark Wahlberg and Seth MacFarlane as Ted.
Foxx wasn’t the only one to receive
special recognition. Peter Dinklage
from “Game of Thrones”
presented Will Ferrell – clad
in a cash money suit and joined on stage by his southeast Asian “wife and
children” – with the inaugural COMEDIC GENIUS AWARD. Regarded as one of the most versatile
young talents in Hollywood, Emma
Watson, star of the upcoming “The
Bling Ring”, received the second-annual TRAILBLAZER AWARD from her “My Week with Marilyn” co-star Eddie Redmayne, “The Perks of Being a Wallflower”
co-star Logan Lerman, and Jonah Hill, who in a taped message
divulged his wish to co-star in the film adaptation of “Fifty Shades of Grey” with Watson.
Bradley Cooper and Jennifer
Lawrence each won two “MTV Movie Awards”, one of which they
shared for BEST KISS, presented by Steve Carell and Amanda Seyfried. Lawrence also won BEST FEMALE PERFORMANCE for the
second-straight year, while Cooper was honoured with the BEST MALE PERFORMANCE.
Rebel Wilson earned
her very own golden popcorn, winning BREAKTHROUGH PERFORMANCE for her role in “Pitch
Perfect”, while also claiming an ensemble honour with the rest of her “Pitch
Perfect” cast mates for BEST MUSICAL MOMENT. The Australian actress
also brought the house down with a series of hysterical comedy shots – one of
which co-starred James Franco, who paid an unexpected visit to Rebel
in the Australian bush, and another highlighting many of her marquee
roles from the last year that were left on the cutting room floor.
Three men
with unmistakable physiques – Zac Efron, Seth Rogen and Danny McBride – took
to the Movie Awards stage, with Rogen and McBride dropping their
pants to present the BEST SHIRTLESS PERFORMANCE honour to Taylor Lautner for his outstanding body of work in "The
Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 2."
In the
end, all eyes were on Liam Hemsworth, who provided the world with a
first look at an exclusive teaser trailer of the highly anticipated new film “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire”, with the signature giant mockingjay pin
engulfed in flames behind him. Fans were also provided with a sneak peek of an
extended scene from Marvel’s “Iron Man 3.”
The “2013 MTV Movie Awards” also featured
a string of stirring live music performances. Ke$ha introduced chart-topping duo Macklemore & Ryan Lewis for a high-energy performance
featuring a Mariachi themed brass section, keeping the party going with their
most recent hit, “Can’t Hold Us.”
Later in the evening, Kim Kardashian
introduced Selena Gomez for a
provocative, Bollywood dance-inspired rendition of her single “Come & Get It”, as Gomez continues to turn heads after
her recent appearance in “Spring
Breakers.”
