Robert Downey Jr. was enthusiastically presented with the Generation Award, the show’s take on a lifetime achievement honor, by his fellow cast mates from “The Avengers.” Downey’s poignant acceptance speech, in which he recalled his struggles with drug addiction, was perhaps overshadowed by his awesome entrance. The star of the “Iron Man” movies emerged on the cartoon-themed stage from inside what he called a “massive, trippy cat head.”
CAT’S MEOW
The unlikely trio of Charli XCX, Ty Dolla $ign and Tinashe managed to drag in the show’s most energetic routine with their fresh pop-rap collaboration “Drop That Kitty.” From behind an oversized inflatable guitar, Charli kicked off the performance backed by her all-girl band on “Famous” before she was joined for “Drop That Kitty” by Ty, Tinashe and a chorus line of female dancers clad in tight pink jumpsuits and cat-inspired ‘dos. The new ditty had the Nokia Theatre crowd purring.
SPREADING HER WINGS
Rebel Wilson, who hosted the MTV Movie Awards in 2013, turned heads at this year’s extravaganza when she joined her “Pitch Perfect” co-stars onstage dressed as a Victoria’s Secret model — wings and all — to introduce a clip from their a capella comedy sequel. The funny lady wasn’t done showing off the goods. Wilson not-so-accidently dropped the winner envelope on the stage, prompting her to jokingly bend over and expose the word “THINK” scrawled across her form-fitting pants.
