Clearly, the folks who voted for the 2009 MTV Movie Awards were BIG Twilight fans because they chose to heap numerous awards on the film and its actors over bigger movie blockbusters like Batman: The Dark Knight and the Academy Award winning film Slumdog Millionaire. The show should’ve been renamed the 2009 MTV Twilight Awards cuz, really, that’s what the whole thing turned out to be. Here are a few pics of some of the red carpet arrivals at the Gibson Amphitheater at Universal Studios in Hollywood, CA, a run-down of what went down last night and some pics from the show itself:

The MTV Movie Awards were a blood bath Sunday night with “Twilight” taking five trophies, including best movie. But it was Sacha Baron Cohen who gave the show its trademark bizarro moment when he landed upside-down on the lap of Eminem, who may or may not have been deeply offended. “Twilight,” the popular vampire drama starring Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, sucked up golden popcorn trophies for best movie, best fight, best kiss, breakthrough male performance and female performance during Sunday’s freewheeling and often-bleeped ceremony at the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, Calif. “The fans are the ultimate driving force,” Stewart said while accepting her best female performance trophy (which she promptly dropped on the floor, breaking off a chunk of the golden popcorn). Awards were decided by fan votes. Other winners included “High School Musical 3: Senior Year” star Zac Efron for male performance and his co-star Ashley Tisdale for female breakthrough performance. Miley Cyrus accepted the best song from a movie prize for “The Climb” from “Hannah Montana: The Movie,” preventing “Twilight” from sweeping all six nominated categories. An award new to this year, the “WTF moment,” went to Amy Poehler’s scene in “Baby Mama” where she urinates in a sink. But even that was upstaged by Baron Cohen, who flew in on a wire, hanging above the audience. Dressed as flamboyant character “Bruno” in a pair of feathery white wings and his rear end mostly exposed, the comedian crashed into an overhead obstacle and was lowered headfirst into the lap of Eminem, his bare hindquarters in the rapper’s face. “Is the real Slim Shady about to stand up?” chirped Baron Cohen. Eminem seemed visibly upset by the encounter, and members of his entourage roughly removed Baron Cohen as the rapper struggled to get out. But had the rapper’s self-styled homophobic character been punked by Baron Cohen and MTV, or was he in on the elaborate stunt? Free of the scene, Eminem stormed out with his entourage in tow — and cameras rolling — and hit the exits. Baron Cohen’s descent to the audience was included in rehearsals, but Eminem — who performed Sunday night — didn’t take part in that piece of the run-through. As the rapper stormed off, it sounded as though he was wearing a microphone, and cameras were in position to record his fast exit, but he was not seen or heard from again. Baron Cohen’s publicist, Matthew Labov, had no comment when reached after the show. A spokeswoman for MTV would not confirm whether Eminem was caught by surprise, and representatives for the rapper did not immediately return requests for comment Sunday night … Besides handing out awards for movies from the past year, MTV debuted new footage from the upcoming films “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen,” “Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince” and “New Moon.” The highlight of the “Twilight” sequel clip: A newly buff Taylor Lautner transformed instantly into a giant, menacing canine, fans’ first look at one of the storyline’s werewolves.

LOL. I was surprised that Twilight only won 5 awards … from watching the show, it seemed like the movie won every category announced. It’s very clear that the Twilighters have spoken … and they love their vamps! They also love their awkwardly, fidgety starlet Kristen Stewart … who fumbled and itched her head thruout her acceptance speech for Best Female Performance (she looked like a crack addict pheenin’ for a hit) — and then dropped her award trophy onto the ground. In case you missed it the first time or just wanna watch it again, you can watch the full video of her onstage acceptance speech (and fumble) after the jump …

Megan Fox, who is featured on the cover and in the pages of the new issue of Esquire magazine, makes a bold comment on what she thinks the essential plot point of the hugely successful Disney film franchise High School Musical is all about. In her estimation, the film revolves around more than just a few tweens running around their high school merrily singing with one another … she sees a more insidious tale bubbling underneath the surface. Here is Megan’s take on what High School Musical is “really about” as told in her coverstory interview with Esquire mag:

In the June issue of Esquire, on newsstands May 10, Megan Fox explains the true meaning of ‘High School Musical.’ “Let me tell you what it’s really about. ‘High School Musical’ is about this group of boys who are all being molested by the basketball coach, who is Zac Efron’s dad. It’s about them struggling to cope with this molestation. And they have these little girlfriends, who are their beards. Oh, and somehow there’s music involved,” the ‘Transformers’ beauty says. Fox adds, “You have to get stoned and watch it.” We wonder if she’s speaking from experience.

Hahahaha! Well, that is quite an opinion. It’s clear that Megan is trying to make herself seem edgy by taking this shot at a very successful tween movie franchise. I suppose she feels cool, like an older kid who picks on a younger kid in the schoolyard. I dunno if this comment makes her cool but it does enlighten a bit about how the woman thinks. Perhaps it’s best that she keeps smiling for the cameras rather than offering other movie commentary. Then again, is there anyone out there who doesn’t see that she may be on to something? HMMM.

Yesterday we got our first look at Megan Fox on the cover and in the pages of the new issue of Elle magazine and today we get to enjoy a bit more from the mag. Elle.com has yet to publish their full interview with Megan Fox but, in addition to offering a few more photos, they have posted a few questions and answers from her coverstory interview. Here is one of the newly released photos and her interview answers:

On getting down to 99 pounds while shooting Jennifer’s Body: “I decided I would turn myself into a zombie. I got super, super skinny, stayed out of the sun for four months, and got to where I was losing my eyelashes and my eyebrows.”

On misbehaving while growing up: “I was grounded for all my childhood. Not most–all. I wasn’t doing anything particularly crazy. I just never appreciated authority figures preaching to me.”

Still, these interview answers do not provide too much insight into Miss Fox but I’m hoping we’ll get more meat when the full interview is released. After the jump, check out two more photos of Megan from her Elle magazine photoshoot …

Transformers star Megan Fox, who is already appearing on the cover of the new issue of Esquire magazine, is featured on the cover and in the pages of the new issue of Elle magazine. Altho Elle has yet to publish their full interview with Miss Fox online, they have provided us with a few photos of check out. Here is Megan’s Elle mag coverphoto and a brief snippet from her coverstory interview:

On maturing early: “I’ve lived the life of a 35-year-old since I was 18. I’m so suspicious of boys-slash-men. I just don’t like them or trust them.”

On giving male writers an amped-up version of her past: “They’re boys; they’re easily toyed with. I tell stories and have them eating out of my hand.”

HMMM, she is really trying to push that vixen persona, ain’t she? But, you know, she’s young and vampy enough to pull it off … to a point. I’m curious to read more from this Elle interview. This snippet doesn’t really give us much so I’m hoping all the interesting bits are still to come. While we wait for her interview to hit the Internets, let’s check out a couple photos from her Elle magazine photospread …

Megan Fox, who will be starring alongside Shia LaBeouf in the Transformers sequel Rise of the Fallen this June and just started filming Jonah Hex for release next year, is featured on the cover and in the pages of the new issue of Esquire magazine … here is her coverphoto:

Wowie wow! Megan looks great … but, curiously, don’t you think the trench coat/stockings ensemble looks an awful lot like the look that Angelina Jolie rocked in the spy romance flick Mr. & Mrs. Smith? The similarity can’t be a coincidence … Megan has been compared to a young Angelina many times before. After the jump, check out another alternate Esquire cover of Megan in another pose …

Megan Fox, who sexes up the upcoming blockbuster Summer sequel Transformers: Rise of the Fallen this June, has been spotted on the Louisiana set of the new Warner Bros. big screen adaptation of the Western-style comic book Jonah Hex. Here are a couple pics of Megan in her sexy period pieces on set yesterday:

ComingSoon.net/Superhero Hype! has received new photos of Megan Fox wearing two different costumes on the set of Warner Bros. Pictures’ comic book adaptation Jonah Hex. Opening August 6, 2010, the Jimmy Hayward-directed action-adventure co-stars Josh Brolin, John Malkovich, Will Arnett and Michael Shannon. Hex, known for having the right side of his face disfigured and wearing a Confederate army uniform, was a rough-and-tumble gunslinger and part-time bounty hunter whose adventures always ended in blood.

Ah yes … sounds like a charming and uplifting film. I, personally, am not a fan of anything Western-themed nor am I familiar with this particular comic book series but the cast does sound impressive. Megan looks great in her sexy corset … which I’m sure all the fanboys will appreciate muchly. I suspect we may see more from the Jonah Hex set in the weeks to come. Any fans out there? Is this a comic book title I should be reading?
