UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif.
Sandra Bullock was kissing and telling at the MTV Movie Awards.
Bullock, wearing a glittery black dress, received a standing ovation as she accepted the MTV Generation Award in her first live televised appearance since she split with unfaithful husband Jesse James earlier this year.
The 45-year-old actress used her acceptance speech to clear up tabloid rumors — “No. 1: I’m not dead.” — and smooch Scarlett Johansson.
“Now that we have done that, can we please go back to normal?” said a smiling Bullock.
Kristen Stewart won the first golden popcorn trophy handed out at the fan-favorite MTV award show, hosted by “Parks and Recreation” funnyman Aziz Ansari. Stewart was honored for best female performance for her role as Bella Swan in “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” at Sunday’s over-the-top and often-bleeped ceremony at the Gibson Amphitheatre.
“I guess ‘Twilight’ is really awesome, and I agree,” said a fidgety Stewart. “Woo!”
Stewart and her “Twilight” co-star Robert Pattinson also landed the best kiss award for the second consecutive year.
Other winners included “Obsessed” co-stars Beyonc Knowles and Ali Larter for best fight, “Jennifer’s Body” star Amanda Seyfried for the first “scared-as-s**t moment” and “Up in the Air” co-star Anna Kendrick for breakout star.
“This is the coolest moment ever,” said Kendrick.
Tom Cruise launched the show as his “Tropic Thunder” character Les Grossman, a profanity-spewing Hollywood producer.
