On Sunday night (April 14), something inspired actress Aubrey Plaza to storm the stage while Will Ferrell was accepting his Comedic Genius Golden Popcorn at the 2013 MTV Movie Awards. 
 
 While the "Anchorman" star was making the A-listers in the room LOL with his speech, the "Parks and Recreation" star — with the name of her August film "The To Do List" scrawled across her chest — jumped onstage and tried to wrestle the statue out of his hand. While it seemed like it may have been a gag, MTV News can confirm that the moment was anything but planned. 
 
 Plaza wasn't supposed to join the funnyman at all, and the whole back-and-forth was unscripted. Shortly after she interrupted the actor's big moment, she was asked to leave the show by producers. 
 
 Fans began to immediately react to the stunt, comparing her interruption to the famed Kanye West/Taylor Swift moment from the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, when Yeezy interrupted Swift's speech. 
 
 @TaraSoudbaksh tweeted, "Did Aubrey Plaza just try to Kanye West Will Ferrell's speech? What was that? #movieawards." @DaniElleMusic_ added, "Aubrey Plaza just tryed to pull a Kanye on Will Ferrell." 
 
 The moment seemed to amuse many tuning in to the show. @Iwishbluehair tweeted, "Aubrey Plaza and Will Ferrell should work together more often."

 Kanye West announced that he plans to run for president in 2020 at the MTV’s Video Music Awards on Sunday night in Los Angeles. 
 
 His comments came after being presented with the award show’s highest honor by Taylor Swift, who won four of the nine awards she was nominated for at the annual ceremony, including video of the year for Bad Blood, which features Kendrick Lamar.

 West accepted the Video Vanguard award with a rambling 10-minute speech where he discussed grocery stores, baseball stadiums and awards shows. After admitting that he “rolled up a little something” before coming to the show, West made his political ambitions clear. 
 
 “And yes, as you probably could’ve guessed in this moment, I’ve decided in 2020 to run for president,” West said. 
 
 While his speech affirmed that he and Swift have resolved their earlier conflict, earlier in the show, a new pop star battle played out between Nicki Minaj and the show’s host, Miley Cyrus. 
 
 Minaj opened the show clad in a red feather headpiece and matching dress to perform her song Trini Dem Girls. She then launched into The Night Is Still Young, where she brought Taylor Swift onstage to perform alongside her. Their performance ended with a hug, leading MTV to declare an end to the “beef” that emerged after the nominations were announced last month.

 Swift had taken Minaj’s tweeted criticism of racism in the music industry personally, leading the pop star to respond to Minaj on Twitter, writing: “I’ve done nothing but love & support you. It’s unlike you to pit women against each other. Maybe one of the men took your slot ...” 
 
 Swift apologized days later. 
 
 But before the night ended, Minaj responded to criticism from the show’s host, Miley Cyrus, who had said in a New York Times interview last week that Minaj’s criticism was impolite and came from a place of jealousy. 
 
 “And now back to this bitch that had a lot to say about me the other day in the press – Miley, what’s good?” Minaj said while accepting the award for best hip-hop video. 
 
 Cyrus, who was standing on a nearby stage, said: “We’re all in the industry, we all do interviews and we all know how they manipulate shit.” 
 
 Near the end of the broadcast, Cyrus spoke from behind a black curtain as she changed clothes. The curtain fell aside slightly at one point, giving the audience a very swift glimpse of her left breast.

 While presenting the award to Minaj, actress Rebel Wilson made a poorly received joke about police brutality while presenting. Wearing a T-shirt that said “Fuck tha stripper police,” Wilson made jokes about the hardships she faced by stripper police. 
 
 “They come to your house. You think you’re getting arrested, and you just get a lap dance and it’s usually uninspired,” Wilson said. “I hired a police stripper for my grandma’s 80th and he wouldn’t even feel her up ... I hate this injustice, hence the shirt.”

 The bit was immediately criticized on Twitter, where users pointed out that the message was insensitive in a year when police killings have been under increased scrutiny. 
 
 Cyrus ended the ceremony with a performance of Dooo It!, the opening track to her new collaborative album with The Flaming Lips: Miley Cyrus and Her Dead Petz. It is available free online. 
 
 She was asked to host in spite of her controversial performance at the 2013 awards where she twerked with Robin Thicke on stage and was accused of cultural appropriation. 
 
 Cyrus told the New York Times that the VMAs producer, Van Toffler, encouraged her to go crazy because he stepped down from his post as MTV CEO in April and “can’t get fired”. 
 
 “He was like, ‘I want to do something crazy – I want you to host the VMAs, because I want that to be my last shebang,’” Cyrus said. 
 
 The first award of the night was presented during to the pre-show to Fall Out Boy, who won the best rock video for their track Uma Thurman. Several other awards were handed out before the show even began, including best pop video for Taylor Swift’s Blank Space. ||||| The hunks from "Twilight." A girl-on-girl kiss.

 The MTV Movie Awards were all they could be Sunday. 
 
 The irreverent pop-culture celebration, which honors the year's films in quirky categories such as best kiss was a bleep-filled bonanza, as presenters and winners let loose with four-letter words. 
 
 "Twilight" was the night's big winner, taking five trophies. 
 
 "I guess 'Twilight' is really awesome, and I agree," said star Kristen Stewart. "Woo!" 
 
 "New Moon" sucked up prizes for best movie, kiss, female performance for Stewart and male performance and global superstar for Robert Pattinson. 
 
 Sandra Bullock won just one trophy, but it was a big one. The 45-year-old actress accepted the MTV Generation Award in her first live televised appearance since she split with unfaithful husband Jesse James earlier this year. She used her time on stage to clear up tabloid rumors _ "No. 1: I'm not dead." _ and lock lips with Scarlett Johansson. 
 
 "I love what I do," vowed Bullock. "I'm not going anywhere." 
 
 Bullock, wearing a backless, glittery black dress, was presented with the show's highest honor by her "All About Steve" co-star Bradley Cooper, "The Proposal" co-star Betty White and inexplicably Johansson, the wife of her absentee "Proposal" leading man Ryan Reynolds. When asked why she was there to help hand over the trophy, Johansson hinted she wanted to lay one on Bullock, who awkwardly obliged. 
 
 "Now that we have done that," said a smiling Bullock, "can we please go back to normal?" 
 
 The two-hour ceremony at the Gibson Amphitheatre was brightened by such colorful moments. 
 
 Perry wore a blue wig and sparkly shorts as she performed her hit, "California Gurls," with Snoop Dogg and a cast of dancers on roller skates. 
 
 Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell hung comically above the stage in a fake stunt gone wrong as Samuel L. Jackson, Dwayne Johnson and Eva Mendes presented the best villain award to Tom Felton of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince." 
 
 And Tom Cruise, who launched the show as "Tropic Thunder" character Les Grossman, a profanity-spewing Hollywood producer, danced enthusiastically with Jennifer Lopez to Ludacris' "Get Back." 
 
 Host Aziz Ansari also did some dancing to accompany his own R. Kelly-inspired musical tribute to "Avatar," which ended with some profane words for British Petroleum. 
 
 Fans picked the winners Sunday, including "Obsessed" co-stars Beyonce Knowles and Ali Larter for best fight, "The Hangover" star Zach Galifianakis for comedic performance and "Up in the Air" co-star Anna Kendrick for breakout star. 
 
 "This is the coolest moment ever," said Kendrick, clutching her popcorn trophy. "This is going on my coffee table." 
 
 Kendrick joined the "Twilight" cast on stage to accept the prize for best movie. Patriarch Peter Facinelli peppered his acceptance speech with four-letter words.

– Staged or not staged? That seems to be the question surrounding Aubrey Plaza's stage-crashing moment last night at the MTV Movie Awards. The Parks & Rec star came onstage while Will Ferrell was accepting an award, and tried to grab the trophy without actually saying anything. An awkward tug of war followed, until Plaza finally returned to her seat as Ferrell said, "Aubrey Plaza, everyone—just like we rehearsed it." But MTV claims the incident was not staged. Plaza had a cup in her hand (which she dropped en route back to her seat) and had the name of her upcoming film, The To Do List, written on her chest; many speculated on Twitter and elsewhere that she was drunk at the time. Producers later asked her to leave. Even so, Vulture seems skeptical. "If it wasn't planned, why the heck was she sitting in the front row?" writes Jesse David Fox. "A bit too convenient for something that wasn't rehearsed or planned, no?" And Jezebel notes that it was also "the most exciting thing that happened" during the show. Plaza responded to the controversy today, tweeting, "thanks for the advice @kanyewest went better than planned!" in reference to Kanye crashing Taylor Swift's MTV acceptance speech.
