This year's MTV Movie Awards were held on Sunday at the Nokia Theater, Los Angeles, and airing globally on MTV channels in over 160 countries.
The biggest winner of the night was the movie The Fault In Our Stars that took gongs as "Movie of the Year" and Shailene Woodley took home four Golden Popcorn awards including "Best Female Performance."
Bradley Cooper won "Best Male Performance" for his unforgettable portrayal of Chris Kyle in "American Sniper", and dedicated the award to the fallen Navy SEAL.
Additional big winners included Zac Efron, who took home two awards, Jennifer Lopez for "Best Scared-As-S**t Performance", and Dylan O'Brien for "Breakthrough Performance".
Vin Diesel sang Wiz Khalifa, Channing Tatum dropped it for J-Lo, Amber Rose and Amy Schumer made out, Rebel Wilson issued a public apology for showing her "girl power" to the President of the United States, and Zac Efron grabbed a handful of Dave Franco's crotch as all manner of crazy sh*t went down in front of an audience of Hollywood's hottest.

Host Amy Schumer skewered Hollywood sacred cows and left no taboo untouched in a hilarious and characteristically self-deprecating opening monologue.
Schumer emerged from below the stage and stumbled into a "Hunger Games"-inspired dance routine before casually tossing an arrow to open the show.
The arrow "impaled" an unsuspecting Jimmy Kimmel, who thankfully recovered in time to present the "Comedic Genius" award to the great Kevin Hart, who brought his daughter Heaven and son Hendrix up on stage to help him accept the award.
