well hello hello hello! i'm coming to you 'live' from a 'blogger viewing room' over at the
MTV movie awards! i really had no clue what to expect but i figured i would at least head over and see what was going! this year the show is being held over at the
gibson amphitheatre which is part of the whole
universal studios complex - a five minute drive from popbytes' humble abode! although they've (MTV) placed a bunch of restrictions on us bloggers - including no cameras (i totally should have brought it anyways - i'm always trying to obey the rules but then i get screwed) when i first arrived i was
way annoyed - i kept thinking what the hell is the point of inviting us down?!? i seriously could have
easily done what i'm doing from the comfort of my own living room...
yet
thankfully i ran into ms.
lisa from
a socialite's life who is always a blast to hang around - so we've been busy catching up on both celebrity & personal gossip! i've also met some other great people including
marjorie (
meevee),
hallie (
tmz),
kimmy (
ivillage),
elina (
laist), and
jared (
just jared) and as a bonus i ran into one of my
hollyscoop girls diana - gosh i love my hollyscoop gals! ok so here we go - ms. silverman is about to take to the stage! i'll be back with more...stay tuned!
OMG! sarah nailed the opening -
totally sassy - just the way we like her! although i know one person who probably isn't feeling her at the moment - yup
paris hilton who is making her 'last' public appearance before going to the slammer! sarah joked that the prison would be painting the bars to look like penises and she was worried that ms. hilton would probably end up busting her teeth on them - ha! plus they nabbed a sour pussed reaction shot from ms. hilton - i loved it! (below are the before & after the joke shots) i don't know what MTV thought about her opening but ms. silverman should open every awards show there is - she rocks!
oh look it's my darling
victoria beckham (i was just interviewed a few days ago by a UK production company on the beckhams' move to LA which went very well!) introducing
rihanna performing her super hot single
umbrella with
jay-z! oh btw don't bother looking for
beyonce in the crowd - she's over in europe doing shows or some bullshit like that...
i'm not really keeping track of the winners - i'll make sure to link to the complete list at the end - as we know these awards are really more for fun than anything - this certainly isn't the
oscars but i did get a chuckle out of
will ferrell &
sacha baron cohen making out after they nabbed the 'best kiss' award for
talladega nights!
cameron diaz's legs are looking way long & super hot - she was up on stage introducing
mike meyers who is about to get some kinda lifetime achievement award - i wonder if ms. diaz ran into
jessica biel yet?!? oh popbytes does love a good catfight! oh pardon me it's a 'generation' award for mr. meyers...
here comes my gal
amy winehouse being introduced by
bruce willis! (wasn't he trying to get with her a few months back?!?) she's performing
rehab again...i was hoping she'd sing another track but she did an
awesome job - and looked nice and tan (i know she went tanning today because she stopped by where my pal
zach works for a bite to eat after getting her color on!)
special props must go out to
dane cook who so far has been the only talent to stop by the 'blogger room' and my new friend
hallie (a kick-ass intern for TMZ - they should be proud to have her!) was spot on with some great questions including which jessica was a better kisser -
alba or
simpson? dane took the high road and said he couldn't answer because one of the jessica's would kick his ass (my bets are all on alba!) also
andy signore stopped by - he won the best spoof award for his
united 300 short and he was
totally thrilled with his win!
just now i've just been informed my
least favorite couple is about to stop by...
heidi montag &
spencer pratt - ugh! ok so i asked ms. montag right off the bat what's going on with her offer to pose naked in
playboy - apparently the decision is still up in the air (i think they want $5 million!) i then told her 'well they do look good' (referring to her recently enhanced chest) which was a slight stab but in a nice way...ha ha ha! the couple confirmed they will be on the upcoming season
the hills (they're shooting right now) which heidi promises to be the best season yet...who knows but the publicist pulled them out pretty quickly - before i started chanting
lauren conrad rules - i think they could tell there was blood in the water and if they stayed any longer - we would have eaten them alive!
things seem to be winding down here - please excuse any mistakes above - i'm going to do a proof & polish when i get home! also many thanks to
elina (who also brought a flask of soco - which totally hit the spot!) from
laist for snapping the pics below - she did an awesome job live blogging the event! (they also have a great
photo essay post) popbytes over & out for now...xxoo!
PS i thought
paris hilton was going to be presenting an award but perhaps after ms. silverman's joke she said no no no...
