When you’re ready we can share the wine
June 4, 2009 | MTV
What did I learn from watching the 2009 MTV Movie Awards? That you can pay anyone to do anything. That the teenish celebrities clomp along awkwardly in their high heels and newfound notoriety. That the 30+ celebrities know how to work the high heels and fame but reek of desperation.
Did they get Kiefer Sutherland to headbutt the high-school guy? No, but I think that’s only because they didn’t ask. He totally would have.
But they did get LeAnn Rimes, Chris Isaak (oh, Chris, what have you done?) and Forest Whitaker to sing a medley of Andy Samberg‘s “original tunes,” including D*** in a Box.
And Denzel Washington. Did he agree to be there only if he could bring a daughter to peddle? What. Is that the only way Hollywood progeny can get casting calls?
I admit I’ve never seen the movie awards on MTV before. And MTV isn’t highbrow by any means. But still. That spectacle was just sad.

Kudos (I guess?) to you for making it thru that – was it an assignment? – and giving us a great synopsis! Is that the one where Sasha Cohen landed in Eminem’s lap?

But, it is Viacom.
I want my MTV… I want my MTV… I want my MTV…
…back! You know the MTV that actually plays music videos, yeah that one… Guess there is always You-tube, oops uh Viacom took those videos too.
