LOS ANGELES (AP) — It wouldn’t really be an MTV award show without a bit of booty, now would it?
Despite being peppered with accolades for the serious teen drama “The Fault in Our Stars” and its thoughtful star Shailene Woodley, the MTV Movie Awards still managed to provide several moments of silliness Sunday, including a rump-shaking Channing Tatum and a scantily clad Rebel Wilson. As always, the prizes were secondary to the irreverence.
Here’s the most memorable moments from the cable network’s 24th annual celebration of movies:
FROM THE HART
The usually goofy Kevin Hart showed off his fraternal side as he received the comedic genius award. The “Ride Along” funnyman was joined onstage by his children, daughter Heaven and son Hendrix. Hendrix clutched his dad’s golden popcorn bucket trophy as Hart accepted the accolade, even though the tyke could barely lift it. Afterward, the Hart boys showed off a signature handshake that culminated with the duo cutely prancing around each other, drawing giggles from the audience.
TWERKING TATUM
After the hunky cast of “Magic Mike XXL” presented Jennifer Lopez with a trophy for her “scared-as-(expletive)” performance in the thriller “The Boy Next Door,” the “American Idol” judge prodded the guys to show off their dance moves. Without missing a beat, Tatum turned his backside to the crowd and gyrated his gluteus maximus for Lopez. Unfortunately, his co-stars Joe Manganiello, Matt Bomer and Adam Rodriguez, nor Lopez, joined in. “Maybe next time,” she teased.
