Hot Spot of the Day: Gibson Amphitheater, Los Angeles - MTV Movie Awards

Kissing, groping and a Robert Pattinson projected F-Bomb. It could only be the MTV Movie Awards, held this year at our Hot Spot of the Day: The Gibson Ampitheater in Los Angeles. 

The annual movie award extravaganza is known for its ridiculous moments, like when Sean William Scott wore underwear with Justin Timberlake's face plastered on it. Or when Sacha Baron Cohen made out with Will Ferrell after receving their Best Kiss award in 2007. And last night was was no different, as Mila Kunis and JT groped each other, R-Patz threw out an uncensored F-Bomb, and Steve-o proclaimed to the world that he wanted Donald Trump inside of him. 


These moments, coupled with a crop of star attendees like Justin Bieber, Kristen Stewart and Jim Carrey, officially made the Gibson Amphitheater the hottest place on earth last night. Originally an outdoor venue, it was remodeled in 1982 to become an indoor theater, allowing for better acoustics. The venue is found in the midst of Universal Studios CityWalk, which -- if you haven't been -- is a great place to buy overpriced movie tickets and/or visit one of the last remaining Hard Rock Cafes.

Assuming you weren't able to score seats to the MTV Movie Awards, the least you can do is enjoy these pictures of all the stars having a ball at the Gibson Amphitheater.

But first, a better picture of the venue in relation to the rest of Los Angeles. As you can see, it's northeast of Beverly Hills, just off the 101 Freeway.



And now, what you really came for, pictures of The Biebs in a sharp blue suit. He could probably do without those earrings. But you be the judge.

Robert Pattinson pretty much won every award he was nominated for, which makes total sense seeing as the golden popcorn is given out based on fan voting, and he's uh, sort of popular.

Kristen Stewart appeared to want to kiss her Twilight co-star when the two went up to accept their third straight win in the Best Kiss category. But the Brit wasn't feeling it.

Harry Potter actor Tom Felton (he's Draco) won the award for Best Villain. In his gracious acceptance speech, he thanked the fans and said that the golden popcorn would look great in his downstairs toilet. Yep, he said that.

Jim Carrey took the stage wearing an all green suit that had film footage
splashed across it for audiences at home to view.
Unfortunately for the live audience, he just looked funky.
But at home, he looked awesome.

Reese Witherspoon received the Generation Award, which honored her career in film. But from the MTV producers' standpoint, it looked like yet another excuse to throw Robert Pattinson on stage. Though they probably didn't expect him to blurt out an F-Bomb.
