MTV Movie Awards

I am repulsed, confused and upset.
I started watching the MTV Movie Awards today and I was so disappointed with everything.
Rebel Wilson was the host and I thought, gee, awesome! I loved her in Pitch Perfect. No. No. No.
Within the first 3 minutes, there were probably about 12 fat jokes made. I don't care how comfortable you are with your body, other people aren't and they can't take those jokes the way you may be able to. To think that you might have been considered a role model of sorts to "bigger" woman, or even just to aspiring actresses, no. I will never see her in that light after the raunchy jokes she made and maybe most specifically, the reference she made to North Korea. Repulsive.
I stayed tuned long enough to see the first award be given out. It was the "Best Male Performances." The nominations were the likes of Jamie Foxx in Django Unchained, Bradley Cooper in Silver Linings Playbook and Ben Affleck in Argo but then they said Channing Tatum in Magic Mike. Are you kidding me? How can you put Channing Tatum up against Bradley Ben Affleck? That is literally disgraceful.
I am so disappointed in both MTV and my generation for thinking bs like that is considered "good TV." And I don't even feel like I'm being too sensitive about it either. I think that something like that is so totally wrong no matter what.
I am horrified by this.
