(the original footage of Bruno landing on Em has been removed…from MTV’s player, but here’s a news clip)

Yes, I found myself watching the MTV Movie Awards….and (much to the chagrin of some naive Twitter followers who somehow didnt know that I am an extremely cynical person…hello?) spent most of it in the snark-zone. Maybe it was the pre-award f–kery (known as The Hills finale) that set me off. Or perhaps it was the fact that Tim Kash interviewed Megan Fox (see after the jump) on the red carpet and pretended that nothing was odd about her half-wet-look, half dry-look hairdo.
We can go on for days
(ok, that’s an exaggeration….minutes) about how the Awards was like movie night at R.Kelly’s house. (He wants to see Sandra Bullock in The Proposal. She wants to see High School Musical 2. Who will compromise for the sake of the relationship?) But the bigger buzz was about the Eminem vs. Bruno teabag incident. (sorry kids)

I laughed at the stunt…but was more surprised that some people didn’t think it was a stunt. Even some really smart people.

UPDATE: Life and Style magazine says…
“an MTV insider has told Life & Style that producer Mark Burnett cleared the prank with the rapper beforehand. However, Eminem wasn’t aware of exactly how naked Sacha would be when he agreed to do it! A second insider also confirms that Eminem was actually Burnett’s second choice. The first? Heiress Paris Hilton, who… declined to participate…”

UPDATE 2:
my homie Angela Yee asked her Shade45 folks….

UPDATE 3….FINAL: well the head writer for the MTV Movie Awards blogged this message:

“Yes, the Bruno/Eminem incident was staged. That’s all anyone wants to talk about, so let’s get it out of the way. They rehearsed it at dress and yes, it went as far as it did on the live show then.

so…Eminem knew that Bruno would be bare assed and in his face…..also, he had that bare ass in his face at least twice. Got it.
