MTV Awards Tainted -- Eminem/Bruno Was Staged

Posted Jun 2nd 2009 9:40AM by TMZ Staff

The head writer of the MTV Movie Awards has finally cleared up something everyone already knew anyway -- the cheeky exchange between Bruno's bare backside and Eminem's face was completely staged.

Mtv Movie Awards Bruno Eminem

The L.A. Times spotted the following note on Scott Aukerman's website:

"Yes, the Bruno/Eminem incident was staged. That's all anyone wants to talk about, so let's get it out of the way. They rehearsed it at dress and yes, it went as far as it did on the live show then."

We can all now move on with our lives.

7. According to Eminem's publicist, him falling on Eminem was staged. However Bruno doing so wearing a thong was not part of the plan.

8. What kind of guy is Eminem to agree to a stunt that involves another guy's ass in face?! Diagusting.

11. so mtv asked eminem if they could put another mans bare ass up to his face, he said "sure, sounds great"? he sounds like a puppet. remember his real slim shady video where he was making fun of boy bands, and he had that suit with a rubber ass sticking out and he rubbed it on their face..the only difference here is that eminem got the real thing in his face.

12. I noticed that, when Eminem stood up after pushing Bruno away, he had a boner. Interesting.

13. Wait, did Eminem really know?

14. MTV and that Bruno movie garbage weren't getting any press before this... why? because it's old, and nobody cares anymore. This just makes it old, and pathetic.

I think the only tools that knew these awards were going on were Twilight fans.

I don't see Eminem's motivation. This just makes him look gay.
