Some of the red carpet celebrities of the nigh include actors Adam Sandler and Tom Cruise, actress Jessica Alba, comedian Chris Rock, and artist T.I.
The nominees were announced on May 12, and the winners are voted by the public on MTV´s official website.
Among the most discussed 2010 movies, the MTV listed James Cameron´s 3D movie “Avatar” and “The Twilight Saga-New Moon” as the most potential winners for Best Movie Award of the event. Since both James Cameron´s Titanic and the first film in the Twilight Saga film series received the award in 1998 and 2009 respectively, the competition between the two was expected to be fierce.
One of Emma Watson from “Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince”, Amanda Seyfried from “Dear John”, Sandra Bullock from “the Blind Side”, Kristen Steward from “New Moon” and Zoe Saldana from “Avatar” will receive the award for Best Female Performance.
If both New Moon and Kristen Steward make it this time, it will be the second time for this 20-year-old actress to receive more than one award at the MTV Movies Awards, after she did it with Twilight two years ago by winning the Best Female Performance, the Best Kiss and the Best Movie.
