In the bleeped-out words of Lady Gaga, Black (expletive) Panther was the big winner of Monday night鈥檚 MTV Movie and TV Awards.
Gaga, who stars in the forthcoming movie A Star is Born, got top honours delivering the night鈥檚 biggest award for best movie to Black Panther, letting the f-bomb slip in her excitement.
Along with host Tiffany Haddish鈥檚 wonderfully raunchy routines, it was one of the only eyebrow-raising moments during MTV鈥檚 night of Hollywood honours, from a once-daring network that continues to slide into irrelevancy.
Black Panther and Stranger Things were the night鈥檚 two big winners, taking home three trophies each, with Haddish winning her own golden popcorn for best comedic performance in Girls Trip.
Here are five moments worth remembering from this year鈥檚 show.
鈥� Tiffany Haddish saved the show 鈥� and wore her famous white dress again
Thank goodness for Haddish, who gave the show any semblance of a pulse. She began the night with a horny Black Panther spoof and moved onto a horny rendition of Bodak Yellow, which she then followed by a horny Star Wars sketch. See a pattern? Haddish鈥檚 Mystery Science Theater-style commentary on the year鈥檚 biggest box-office hits provided some of the funniest moments of the night.
In between dressing as J-Lo, Audrey Hepburn and Duchess Meghan, Haddish also recycled her signature $4,000 white Alexander McQueen dress, marking the fourth time the gown has made an appearance since Haddish first modelled it at the Girls Trip premi猫re in July 2017.
鈥� Chadwick Boseman honoured Waffle House hero James Shaw Jr.
When Boseman took the stage to accept the best hero award for Black Panther, he redirected the praise to his guest for the evening, James Shaw Jr., the man who heroically stopped a shooter who opened fire in a Tennessee Waffle House in April.
鈥� Michael B. Jordan called out Roseanne
The Black Panther star seized the opportunity to make a sly joke at Roseanne Barr鈥檚 expense when he accepted the award for best villain for his Erik Killmonger role.
鈥淚鈥檓 shocked I won the award for best villain,鈥� he said, kicking off his speech. 鈥淚 thought Roseanne had that in the bag.鈥�
鈥� Love, Simon scores win for best kiss
To accept the Love, Simon win in the best kiss category, Keiynan Lonsdale 鈥� one half of the winning couple alongside Nick Robinson 鈥� wore a white skirt and third-eye forehead makeup onstage to deliver a speech inspired by the film鈥檚 same-sex love story.
鈥淚 just want to say to every kid, you can live your dreams and wear dresses,鈥� he said. 鈥淵ou can live your dreams and kiss the one that you love, no matter what gender they are.鈥�
With its win, Love, Simon became the second consecutive movie to be honoured by the MTV Movie and TV Awards for a same-sex kiss, following Moonlight鈥檚 best-kiss win for Ashton Sanders and Jharrel Jerome last year.
鈥� Lena Waithe and Chris Pratt receive special honours
Along with the various categories鈥� winners, Chris Pratt and Lena Waithe also addressed the millennial crowd while accepting their respective Generation and Trailblazer awards.
Waithe used her moment in the spotlight to shine a light on the 1990 documentary Paris is Burning, which chronicles the Harlem balls and trailblazing drag queens of the 鈥�80s.
鈥淚 believe the only reason why I鈥檓 even allowed to stand here is because of a few other trailblazers that some of you might not be aware of,鈥� Waithe said. 鈥�(鈥橮aris is Burning鈥�) was released in 1990 and it documents the lives of some of the bravest human beings to ever walk the face of this earth ... Tonight, I want to share this award with them.鈥�
