  MTV - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
MTV was created in 1977, when Warner-Amex Cable (a joint venture between Warner Communications and American Express) launched the first two-way interactive cable TV system, Qube, in Columbus, Ohio.
MTV executives countered by claiming that there were few—if any—promotional videos available from fl and other minority acts, although artists such as Diana Ross and The Jacksons had been making music videos before MTV existed.
MTV received a heavy load of criticism from the religious right in the 1980's and parent-media watchdog groups over certain music videos had "graphic and sacrilegious imagery" of satanism and the devil.

 MTV Video Music Awards - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The MTV Video Music Awards were established in 1984 by MTV to celebrate the top music videos of the year.
The statues given to winners of the award are often called "Moon Men" because the statue is of an astronaut on the moon, one of the earliest representations of MTV.
It was decided to move the awards back a week so that it wouldn't conflict with the anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks.

 CNN - Hole, Madonna to perform at MTV Video Music Awards - September 10, 1998
MTV has evolved into a collection of musically themed news, game and entertainment shows, which at any given time are seen by between 1 and 2 million people.
While many would argue that the MTV awards are often watched for the offbeat antics that might happen, the winners list has often proved a more accurate reflection of musical merit than the more established Grammy Awards, which in recent years have been harshly criticized for handing awards out to bubblegum, commercial acts.
Last year's top MTV Video Music Award winner, for example, was the eclectic, hard-to-pigeonhole Beck, who took home five of the cable channel's odd-looking silver-astronaut trophies.

I was going to do a "best of" fashion post for the MTV Movie Awards, but other than Christina Aguilera (both her arrival and performance outfits rocked), the fashion was pretty hideous.
The two wins by "Brokeback" were rare for a critically acclaimed movie at the offbeat awards show, which lets MTV viewers choose the winners and is known for thumbing its nose at more high-brow ceremonies with categories like "best fight," statues of golden popcorn and shameless plugs for upcoming summer blockbusters.
Love the outfits, love the make-up (she is at a damn awards show people, hence the extra makeup) I LOVE the shoes (the white ones are damn cute).

Two reasons- one, I remember the show, as it was the last time I watched the MTV Movie Awards all the way through (in past years I've seen them in bits, getting dis-interested fast), and two, the Awards show had one segment that is thankfully available somewhere on the market today.
And, oddly enough, it's a bonus feature on the M:I-2 DVD, which is enough for me to recommend the rental of the DVD just for the segment, if not for the actual film.
While the Awards show is nothing particular to remember, the skit is a fitting tribute to the world renown actor(s) by way of hysterical satire.
