The MTV Movie Awards are famous for their controversial moments.
From Borat butt-kissing Eminem, to fights and drunken celebrities, there is very little we haven’t already seen.
And the 2011 MTV Movie Awards were no different.
Before Robert Pattinson dropped the F-Bomb while presenting Reese Witherspoon her Generation Award, Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis pulled their own little stunt to grab attention - and each other!

Kunis and Timberlake were on stage to present the “Best Male Performance” award when they started talking about how much they liked each other.
While the two celebs are starring in the upcoming “Friends with Benefits”, they proceeded to tell the audience that in real life they are more like brother and sister.
Timberlake said, “That’s why I can do this…”, and proceeded to grab Mila’s breasts.
Not to be outdone by the “Social Network” star, she grabbed Timberlake’s crotch and held on for dear life.
No harm no foul. It was a funny moment and nothing more. There is no need for the Network censor police to start hurling accusations of improper anything.
It was comedy.
Timberlake is currently putting the finishing touches on his latest movie project “Bad Teacher”, starring Cameron Diaz and Jason Segel - a comedy centered on a foul-mouthed, junior high teacher who, after being dumped by her sugar daddy, begins to pursue a colleague.

Mila Kunis is also busy filming “Ted”, written and directed by funnyman Seth MacFarlane and starring Kunis, Mark Wahlberg, Patrick Warburton and Jessica Stroup. “Ted” is a story centered on a man and his teddy bear, which comes to life as the result of a childhood wish.
MacFarlane, in addition to his duties with Family Guy and American Dad has also been given the green light to create a new Flintstones series for Fox.

Seth MacFarlane to Create New Flintstones Series for FOX.
One big piece of news that emerged last week was Fox’s intent to bring back the animated series the Flintstones with funnyman Set MacFarlane at the helm.
We can already hear the erocktion jokes…
Yes, we know there have been numerous remakes of the Flintstones over the years… but can you imagine what MacFarlane is capable of doing with the new series?
Seth, Fox’s $100 Million man, has received the green light to create and produce the new animated series for an expected 2013 showing.
Part of the deal with Fox also gives MacFarlane the right to create at least one movie version of the new Flintstones show. Anything has to be better than Rosie O’Donnell, John Goodman, and Rick Moranis.
Remember that 1994 mishap?
MacFarlane is no stranger to animated series, or pushing the envelope of what is acceptable on television.
His current series Family Guy, American Dad, and The Cleveland Show are all current hits but not without their own controversy.
Family guy was cancelled two times by FOX before they realized they had a hit on their hands and let it roll on. And American Dad has come under scrutiny for its rude and tasteless jokes.
But America has fallen in love with Stan, Stewie, Lois, Meg, Bryan, Quagmire, Joe, and Francine, and we suspect we will also fall in love with the new Fred and Barney.
But MacFarlane may not be able to get away with the same kind of dark humor with this series as several entities including Hanna Barbara and Warner Brothers have an interest in keeping their brand somewhat wholesome.
Gary Newman of Twentieth Century Fox says,
“It’s going to be put under a microscope because people are so nostalgic about the brand. But Seth is going to be very respectful of the original. It’s a show that is perfect for recreating because it was a comment on the 1960’s through the prism of a Stone Age family. And now we have the ability to comment on the 21st century. It’s the type of property that’s perfect for someone like Seth MacFarlane who just loves social commentary.”
MacFarlane, who voices several of his original characters, has been quite as to who will participate on the project or provide the voices.
But, we do have a little insight on how Set MacFarlane has dealt with Fred and Barney in the past….
