You have to hand it to Sarah Silverman--she really knows how to throw a party. The live broadcast of the 2007 MTV Movie Awards aired last night, chock full of vulgarity, surprises, and, oh yeah...awards.
While Will Ferrell and Sasha Baron Cohen got a little...close accepting their award for "Best Kiss," Rihanna and Jay-Z treated the audience to their summer-smash "Umbrella." Later in the night, Amy Winehouse, her hair, and her attitude were in full force performing her mega-successful "Rehab" while the star-studded crowd sang along.
Pegged as the "anti-Oscars" when it premiered 16 years ago, the show went better than it has in recent memory. It was live, it was raunchy, and it proved that awards shows don't always have to be stuffy.
