Rebel Wilson kicked off the 2013 MTV Movie Awards this evening with a little help from her pal James Franco and musical accompaniment from her Pitch Perfect costars. She told a handful of jokes before the golden popcorn presenting began, and Bradley Cooper was the first to win, coming up tops in the category of best male performance thanks to Silver Linings Playbook. Next, Jamie Foxx and Samuel L. Jackson took home best WTF moment for Django Unchained. Samuel L. Jackson was able to pick up two popcorns in a row — he and his Avengers costars Tom Hiddleston and Chris Evans won for best fight.
Eddie Redmayne had fans screaming when he introduced 2013 Trailblazer Award winner Emma Watson, who had the support of her boyfriend, Will Adamowicz. Her This Is the End costar Jonah Hill also had kind words for her via video and joked that they're going to star in the Fifty Shades of Grey adaptation together. Later, another special honor went to Comedic Genius Will Ferrell — who was only briefly interrupted during his acceptance speech by "stage crasher" Aubrey Plaza — who commented that he had only two dreams in life: to make people laugh and to dress like Dennis Rodman every day. The night's final special designation went to Generation Award winner Jamie Foxx.
The evening wrapped up with a few particular highlights. Kim Kardashian showed her presenting skills to introduce Selena Gomez, who sang her new track "Come and Get It" for the first time publicly. Liam Hemsworth, additionally, went on stage to introduce a special clip from Catching Fire. Finally, a happy-looking Brad Pitt took the stage to present movie of the year to The Avengers. There were many more popcorns handed out — make sure to check out the full list of MTV Movie Award winners.
