The MTV Movie Awards are famous for their controversial moments.
From Borat butt-kissing Eminem, to fights and drunken celebrities, there is very little we haven’t already seen.
And the 2011 MTV Movie Awards were no different.
Before Robert Pattinson dropped the F-Bomb while presenting Reese Witherspoon her Generation Award, Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis pulled their own little stunt to grab attention - and each other!

Kunis and Timberlake were on stage to present the “Best Male Performance” award when they started talking about how much they liked each other.
While the two celebs are starring in the upcoming “Friends with Benefits”, they proceeded to tell the audience that in real life they are more like brother and sister.
Timberlake said, “That’s why I can do this…”, and proceeded to grab Mila’s breasts.
Not to be outdone by the “Social Network” star, she grabbed Timberlake’s crotch and held on for dear life.
No harm no foul. It was a funny moment and nothing more. There is no need for the Network censor police to start hurling accusations of improper anything.
It was comedy.
Timberlake is currently putting the finishing touches on his latest movie project “Bad Teacher”, starring Cameron Diaz and Jason Segel - a comedy centered on a foul-mouthed, junior high teacher who, after being dumped by her sugar daddy, begins to pursue a colleague.

Mila Kunis is also busy filming “Ted”, written and directed by funnyman Seth MacFarlane and starring Kunis, Mark Wahlberg, Patrick Warburton and Jessica Stroup. “Ted” is a story centered on a man and his teddy bear, which comes to life as the result of a childhood wish.
MacFarlane, in addition to his duties with Family Guy and American Dad has also been given the green light to create a new Flintstones series for Fox.

Robert Pattinson Drops the F-Word on MTV Music Awards - Video
Twilight star Robert Pattinson cleaned up at the MTV Music Awards last night.
But he the networks steaming when the censors couldn’t get to the bleep button fast enough.
Pattinson was on stage with Chelsea Handler presenting the MTV Generation Award to Reese Witherspoon when he dropped the F-Bomb on live television.
While this is not a totally unexpected event at the MTV Awards, but the network was slow to catch it and it broadcast the F-word live on the East Coast feed. A network rep said,
Robert was talking to Reese about their first movie together where Witherspoon played his mother and the director’s cut out many of his scenes.
When talking about their collaboration in “Water for Elephants”, Pattinson said, “In this movie I played your lover. I didn’t cut you out but I did f**k you.”
Witherspoon told the audience later in the evening that today’s young Hollywood actors don’t need to release sex tapes and nude photos to find success, and that “Being Good” is okay and said more celebs should think about that.
Kudos Reese, and congrats on the big award.

Frank ‘The Confrontation’ Sorrentino Videos – We Smell a Rat – A Big Fat Guido Rat
Or at least you have probably heard about them.
Frank “The Confrontation” Sorrentino, father of Jersey Shore star Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino has just released a series of videos bashing his son.
And he holds back nothing - dropping the F-bomb every three seconds and saying some of the most hurtful things a father could say about his son.
Related: Frank Sorrentino Videos bash his son Mike
But after watching all the videos, and reading the press release on his web site, we smell a rat - a bag fat Guido rat.
Here is InfoStar’s theory;
We think this is a well-choreographed Guido move, and that both Mike and Frank know exactly what is going on and are in this together to pull out the $$$.
And we think MTV is right smack in the middle of it all.
Mike “The Situation” is currently on location in Italy starting his third season filming for Jersey Shore. He has already announced his own spin-off show but details are lacking and it’s at least a year out.
His father, Frank “The Confrontation” Sorrentino, is shopping a six figure book deal described in a press release as follows:
“MTV’s Jersey Shore Star, 'Mike Sorrentino – The Situation', to be subject of tell-all book, e-book, and YouTube series by estranged father. 'Confrontation With Situation' to be publicized on a global scale. Rights of printed book, e-book, and mobile book offered for sale. Rights for the printed book, digital book, and mobile book are currently being offered on a country and regional basis”.
The press release mentions Mr. Robert Fletcher, the CEO of Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency, a US book marketing, literary agency, and rights company who has been chosen to handle the rights sales and manage the digital marketing efforts.
Okay, follow our logic here.
Put all this bad blood press out there between the two, and let blogs like InfoStar and TMZ chew on it for a while creating a media buzz. Let things blow up in the press with speculation until it looks like there is no way the estranged father and son could ever reconcile and then….. wait for it…….
“MTV announces ‘Confrontation with Situation’ – The explosive last chance reality show for two estranged family members to reconcile and find peace and love again. Based on the best-selling book by Frank Sorrentino.
MTV gives Mike and Frank Sorrentino one last chance to reconcile their relationship – in front of our cameras, in full Guido fashion, for the whole world to see. Can they succeed? Will the family be torn apart forever? Tune in Monday nights to watch ‘Confrontation with Situation.’”
We think the book deal and spin-off show news release is a precursor to MTV creating a REALITY SHOW starring both Mike and Frank Sorrentino under the title, “Confrontation with Situation”.
We knew something didn’t smell right when Mike didn’t say a word about the videos, not even one press release. And Frank looks awfully comfortable in the videos with his granite counters and bottles of wine.
Do you smell a rat? Can you see it? Would you watch it?

The 'Situations' Dad Talks about Mike’s Sex Tape Problems – Video
Frank “The Confrontation” Sorrentino, the father of Jersey Shore star Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino, has released a series of videos bashing his son.
Nothing seems to be off limits.
Frank talks about Mike losing a job because of a B.J., and then filing sexual discrimination charges, wrecking every car he ever had, loosing touch once he found fame, and more.
Related: Mike Sorrentino Calls his son f#cking loser – Video
Now things have really gotten ugly with Frank's candid discussion of a sex tape problem he had when "The Situation" was only 17-years-old.
But what seemed to start as a father telling his son “Don’t forget where you came from”, has now turned into a series of curse filled rants about everything from school projects to pulling a 9MM gun on some loan sharks.
We know Frank is trying to sell a book, but dumping on your kid like this seems like a pretty sleazy way to get attention.
The latest video “hit job” is regarding a sex tape Mike made with a girlfriend while still a teenager and the lengths his dad Frank went to “solve” the problem.
Frank Sorrentino Talks “Situation” Sex Tape
I don’t know what to make of all this yet. But we did like watching Frank bash the cast of Jersey Shore, and we are all learning a lot of new words that sound like they’re from the Godfather.
There is also the chance we are falling for a stunt.
This could all be a well-crafted Guido move to get the old man a few bucks. After all, we know Frank Sorrentino is trying to sell a book and has been shopping his videos around various news organizations.
What do you think? Stunt or father gone off the deep end?

MTV Orders Spinoffs with Jersey Shore Stars Snooki, JWoww & Pauly D – Say it Ain’t So!
But I was wrong. How could I have been so wrong?
It seems that MTV has ordered up two new reality shows starring Snooki, Pauly D, and JWoww. MTV is betting that viewers of the infamous “Jersey Shore” cast will follow them into their new “situations”.
MTV folks told the press,
“For the Snooki and JWoww show, viewers will get to see how they deal with life and love when the vacation is over in this 12-episode series. The locale may be different, but the friendship is sure to remain the same.”
This sounds like an absolute train wreck just waiting to happen. But it gets worse,
“Pauly D’s jet-setting and often hilarious life on the road as one of the country’s most in-demand DJs trying to become one of the world’s most successful and recognized names in music. Viewers will get to see Pauly D chase his dream with the help of the best friends he grew up with in Rhode Island by his side.”
Are you serious? Can this actually be allowed to happen? Aren’t there agencies out there that are supposed to stop these kinds of things from happening?
It is a sad day my friends.

Nude Snooki Photos Surface On The Web
Well, it should not really be a surprise.We knew it was only a matter of time before either a sex tape or nude pictures started to turn up of the cast of "Jersey Shore".
We can thank Snooki for starting things off with a bang!
But hold on.
We suspect this should all be taken with a grain of salt. Even though the website NakedSnookie.com claims to show the first official leaked photo, there is probably a pretty good chance it is a fake.
The Jersey Shore actress, whose real name is Nicole Polizzi, claims on her Twitter account that there have never been any nude photos taken of her.
But a new craze is about to hit the airwaves my friends. You just watch…
In a never-ending cycle to promote in every way possible, there will soon be a wave of nude picture sightings, bathroom wardrobe malfunctions, cell phone misunderstandings, and six-pack mishaps flooding our airwaves.
If you still don't understand the craze that is "Jersey Shore", then the full episode video below will show exactly why everybody hates it. You will hate it too.

World War III of Love
Just when I was thinking that TV watching was getting mundane, and reality shows becoming increasingly monotonous if not totally incongruous, MTV comes to my rescue with Splitsvilla 3, “where love is war”.
Well, for the uninitiated, this show is not about love; it is about a bunch of desperate youngsters craving for publicity on national TV in the vain hope that one day they will be transformed into a la Nikhil Chinappa or Purab Kohli, or get a breakthrough in one of the numerous saas-bahu sagas, or land up a modeling assignment, or, stretching imagination a little too far, even get to star in a bollywood flick.
Couples and singles in a villa bonding, rebonding, fighting, clawing, abusing and getting dumped – that in a nutshell, Ladies and Gentlemen, is Splitsvilla for you.
But, my criticism of the show ends right here. This reality show offers mega entertainment value. I could hands down give it a top slot in the most asinine yet highly amusing TV serials of all times. It’s a complete package encapsulating the gamut of human emotions – there is looove (supposedly, yes), hatred, anger, jealousy, cat fights, crocodile tears, failed attempts to woo the king and queen and pride and vanity, and the list goes on.
The highlights are ofcourse the RSRs (road side romeos) with the funny and unmistakable North-Indian accents who, had it not been for MTV, would most likely meet you down the road and propose to you “descent fraandship”; The “babes” with little clothes and lesser common sense – crude and crass, yet the fake British accent – even when they speak in Hindi or Punjabi. (To be fair, there are some exceptions, but not noteworthy :)).
What entertains me? All this.
A hectic work week, a lazy Saturday, boring soaps, movies with too many ads – who would mind unintelligent humor at the cost of desperadoes who are at their “real” best, with the channel extracting every idiosyncrasy (I swear I don’t blame them one bit) to create an hour of hysterically laughable moments.
There is still sometime for this show to reach the “dumping zone”!

Justin Timberlake's The Phone on MTV
Justin Timberlake is executive producing a new show on MTV called The Phone and, although I still have no clue what it's about, from the trailer, it looks like it's going to be one hell of a ride.
As we all know by now, everything Justin Timberlake touches turns to gold (save The Love Guru), so there's a good chance that he will be one-upping his old pal Ashton Kutcher and will take the cake as the reality TV king.
So if you're interested in seeing explosions and lots of people yelling and screaming in fear, then perhaps Justin Timberlake's The Phone is just what the doctor ordered. It's set to air on April 21, 2009 at 10 p.m.

50 Cent's The Money and The Power on MTV

Looks like even 50 Cent has jumped on the reality show bandwagon and wants to cash in. Go, go, go...
50 Cent plans to do a reality show called The Money and The Power on MTV starting November 6, 2008, and the show is essentially like The Apprentice, except that, instead of "You're Fired," 50 Cent will tell those dismissed to "Get the f*ck outta here."
It looks like it could be interesting as 50 Cent pits books smarts against street smarts. Unfotunately, it seems like all 14 contestants are about ready to go gangsta on each other. Waving their fingers in the air and talking like they're trying out for an ebonics competition.
My favorite part of the trailer is when he tells one girl that she's a "poor man's Lil' Kim." I mean, come on, Lil' Kim is a poor man's Lil' Kim.

MTV TRL Canceled

It was inevitable considering MTV has had a problem with music videos for about 10 years now, and so MTV is canceling TRL; the one show that actually aired videos for the last 10 years.
It seems that MTV is repulsed by actual music and would much rather air more important things like The Hills and The Real World. Unfortunately, the network's name (Music Television) has become quite the misnomer, especially now that MTV is canceling TRL.
So the last episode of TRL will air in November 2008 with a 2-hour goodbye show. Of course, don't expect to see Mariah Carey walk in out of nowhere and have a bizarre meltdown like she did in 2001. Aw, good times.
