Sunday’s host sets his sights on Sheen’s seating card in new Twitpic. By Josh Wigler Russell Brand and Charlie Sheen’s seat card Photo: Russell Brand via Twitter UNIVERSAL CITY, California — The world is Russell Brand’s oyster. Well, perhaps not the world, but certainly the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City — that’s the site of the 2012 MTV Movie Awards , which Brand will lord over and command with his own unique (wait for it) brand of comedy on Sunday at 9 p.m. ET. “MTV Movie Awards incorporates two of my favorite things. Movies and Awards. If somehow group sex could be involved it would be the greatest night of my life,” Russell Brand said when he was first announced for the hosting gig. Well, it looks like he’s doing his best to fulfill that wish — from the looks of it, he could be well on his way toward an encounter with some goddesses. Brand, already knee-deep in preparation for the big night (even if former host Andy Samberg doesn’t think he’ll need to do much prep work ), has been spending time on the Movie Awards stage this week, and he’s set his sights on a particular celebrity’s seat: none other than the party god himself, Charlie Sheen . “MTV Awards tomorrow. Got my seat sorted. Winning/wanking,” he wrote on Twitter , accompanied by a photo of him sitting down and holding Sheen’s seat card . We’ve long held a theory that tiger blood is transferable simply by physical contact with any possession belonging to Mr. Sheen. If that truly is the case, Brand is officially walking on Sheen’s winning path. We appreciate the effort, Russell, but don’t you think you’d have better luck on that Group Sex Awards goal by actually attending one of Sheen’s never-ending parties? Just a suggestion, take it or leave it! Head over to MovieAwards.MTV.com to vote for your favorite flicks now! The 21st annual MTV Movie Awards air live Sunday, June 3, at 9 p.m. ET.

Seacrest will make $15 million a year through 2014 season. By Gil Kaufman Ryan Seacrest Photo: Getty Images Ryan Seacrest learned many lessons at the foot of his late mentor, Dick Clark . One of them appears to be: Don’t rock the boat. Especially if it’s a eight-figure million luxury yacht. That’s the long way of saying that Seacrest has inked a two-year deal to stay with “American Idol” for a reported cool $15 million a year. “For the last 11 seasons, I’ve had the privilege to be a part of one of television’s most iconic shows. It’s been a wild ride, and I’m excited for my journey with ‘American Idol to continue,” Seacrest said in a statement. “The legions of fans, amazingly talented contestants, judges, and producers, along with the hard working ‘Idol’ crew, impress me every time we go on air and make hosting the show a dream job.” Seacrest has hosted the show since its launch in 2002 and though the judging panel has undergone a series of overhauls over the past four seasons, the genial entrepreneur has been the one constant in the mix. “Ryan is one of a kind,” said Mike Darnell, President of Alternative Entertainment at Fox. “His ability to engage the viewers, keep the contestants at ease during intense moments and adapt to any situation, especially during the live shows, solidifies him as the absolute best in the business. He is an integral part of why ‘American Idol’ is a true phenomenon, and we can’t imagine doing this show without him.” Of course, Seacrest has multiple irons in the fire besides his “Idol” gig, from the various Kardashian-related shows on the E! network, to his hosting and producing gig on “E! News,” red carpet awards show coverage, morning radio show and an upcoming pact to launch his own entertainment cable channel this summer called AXS TV . He’s also finishing up a deal with NBCUniversal that will include a gig as part of this summer’s Olympics coverage. Related Photos Most Shocking ‘American Idol’ Exits

Meryl Streep and Jean Dujardin won us over, while Bret McKenzie made a critical omission during his acceptance. By Kevin P. Sullivan Meryl Streep wins at the 84th Annual Academy Awards Photo: Kevin Winter/ Getty Images One of the most essential parts of any Oscar night is the speeches. If you win, your job is only halfway done. Now you have to get up onstage in front of a billion people and practice your public speaking. Some are heartfelt, some are funny, and some will go down in history — for better or worse. With so much of the ceremony dedicated to acceptance speeches, it’s important to look back and decide who owned the night and who fell on their face. Here are our best and worst speeches of the 2012 Academy Awards: Best Octavia Spencer for Best Supporting Actress For as predictable as Spencer’s win for Best Supporting Actress was, her speech ended the long road to Oscar night in style. She went with the time-tested acceptance-speech traditions of emotion and honesty. Plus, she thanked the state of Alabama, the only state to get a shout-out during the night. Meryl Streep for Best Actress It came as a big surprise, and no one knew that better than Streep. Her “whatever” attitude almost had us forget the upset win over Viola Davis. It may not have been the most just outcome, but at the very least we got a funny speech instead. Christopher Plummer for Best Supporting Actor As the oldest person to ever win an acting Oscar, Plummer outdid most everyone younger than him and delivered one of the most memorable speeches of the night. It was class all the way for Plummer, who sincerely thanked his wife, daughter and co-star Ewan McGregor. He joked that, in his mother’s womb, “I was already rehearsing my Academy acceptance speech, but it was so long ago, mercifully for you, I’ve forgotten it.” Alexander Payne, Nat Faxon and Jim Rash for Best Adapted Screenplay You have to admit that Angelina Jolie was standing a little oddly, with her right leg out of the high slit in her dress, as she read the names of the nominees. Jim Rash, known for his role on “Community,” also took note and mimicked the strange posture after he won the award for his work on the “Descendants” screenplay. Jean Dujardin for Best Actor A good way to score points as a Frenchman winning an Academy Award in America is to open your speech with, “I love your country!” Dujardin read the rest of his speech to help with his English, but it was the outburst in French at the end of his acceptance that really won us over. Worst Bret McKenzie for Best Song Listen, Bret. We love you, and we’re so happy you won. But there would be no Muppets movie without Jason Segel. He may not have written any of the songs, but he co-wrote the film, put his name on the line and sang “Man or Muppet,” the winning song. At the very least, you should have given the man a simple “thanks.” Kirk Baxter and Angus Wall for Best Editing It’s understandable that you were caught off guard — “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” didn’t get a whole lot of nominations — but you need to be a little more prepared than you were. You’re still expected to give a speech. You won just a year ago, so you have enough experience with this kind of thing. Mark Coulier and J. Roy Helland for Best Makeup It’s OK if you write your speech down before you head onto the stage to accept your award. It’s even OK if you read your speech directly from the cards you wrote them on. But please make sure that the speech is a good one if you’re going to do so. The MTV Movies team has the 2012 Oscars covered!

French silent film takes home three major prizes, for Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Director. By Gil Kaufman Meryl Streep wins Best Actress at the 2012 Oscars Photo: Getty Images The early word on the 84th annual Academy Awards was that silent movie “The Artist” was going to run the board. Then there were five early wins by Martin Scorsese’s “Hugo” in technical awards, and it seemed as if it would be a night of upsets. But, like an old movie serial that keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very end, the throwback to another era in film came on strong and swept three of the four biggies: Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Director. The wins capped a night of celebrating the history of cinema, with the final act providing a perfect topper, as “The Artist” became only the second silent movie in Oscar history to snag the night’s top prize and the first black-and-white one to win Best Picture since “Schindler’s List” in 1994. Joining it in the winner’s circle with five wins was another loving tribute to the wonder of film, Scorsese’s “Hugo.” After the crash-and-burn that was last year’s younger-demo-seeking combo of James Franco and Anne Hathaway , nine-time emcee Billy Crystal provided some of that same kind of warm-and-fuzzy feeling to his hosting duties as well. After the tumult that resulted in Eddie Murphy dropping out of the gig in November, the veteran comedian did exactly what everyone wanted him to: he sang, he danced, he made bar mitzvah and Hitler jokes, he spoofed the year’s biggest movies and took a lifetime’s worth of shots at Kodak. Michel Hazanavicius bested Scorsese for Best Director for his work on “The Artist.” Though he claimed to have forgotten his speech, Hazanavicius proclaimed himself the “happiest director in the world” for taking home such a prestigious honor for his anachronistic feature about the culture clash between the old and new when talkies supplanted silent films in the late 1920s. In addition to shouting out the film’s famous pooch, Uggie , Hazanavicius gave props to the movie itself, saying, “Since this movie has been made, its life is full of grace and it brings to us joy and happiness. Sometimes life is wonderful, and today is one of these days.” He was joined a short time later by his leading man, Jean Dujardin, who beat out the likes of three-time Best Actor nominee George Clooney, his bromantic pal Brad Pitt and fellow first-time nominees Gary Oldman and Demian Bichir for Best Actor. For a guy who spent an entire movie not talking, Dujardin had a simple message for his legion of new American fans: “I love your country!” The most nominated actor in Oscar history waited an interminable 30 years between awards, but the 17th time was the charm for Meryl Streep, who snagged her third golden man for disappearing into the role of former British prime minister Margaret Thatcher in “The Iron Lady.” The always entertaining actress moaned, “Oh my God, oh come on!” at the standing ovation, saying she feared that when her name was read, half of America groaned, “Oh no! Her! Again!” The night’s first Oscar, for Cinematography, suggested that perhaps “The Artist” would not run the board, as it went to Scorsese’s “Hugo.” As did the second, for Art Direction, which went to the husband-and-wife team that made “Hugo” such a rich visual feast for the eyes. Along the way, the movie also picked up the Oscars for Sound Editing, Sound Mixing and Visual Effects . Best Supporting Actress went to first-time nominee Octavia Spencer for her role in “The Help,” which garnered a standing ovation from the crowd as she struggled to overcome tears in accepting the award for her work as headstrong maid Minny Jackson. The big night for “The Artist” began with a win for Original Score for untrained composer Ludovic Bource, but it was the cymbal-crashing entrance by Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis that helped make the two-song race in the Best Original Song category a memorable one. “Flight of the Concords” star Bret McKenzie won the marathon for “Man or Muppet,” noting that it was his lifelong dream to meet Kermit the Frog and, like many leading men in Hollywood, he noted that the fuzzy Muppet is “a lot shorter in real life.” After seven decades in the business, a lithe Christopher Plummer became the oldest actor to ever win an Oscar when he accepted the Supporting Actor statue for his work as a father who comes out to his son after the death of his wife in “Beginners.” Holding up the golden statue, Plummer said, “You’re only two years older than me — where have you been all my life?” joking that he emerged from the womb practicing his thank-you speech. Though it wasn’t in the running for the biggies, “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” didn’t go home empty-handed, as it snagged the Best Editing prize for the same duo who took it home last year for “The Social Network.” The award for Animated Feature went to director Gore Verbinski, who took home his first Oscar for “Rango.” Director Alexander Payne took home his second Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay for his collaboration on the script to “The Descendants,” while a typically absent Woody Allen will get his Original Screenplay statue in the mail for “Midnight in Paris.” The MTV Movies team has the 2012 Oscars covered!

Simon Cowell and L.A. Reid also confirm that the show will ‘continually’ pay tribute to the late Whitney Houston. By John Mitchell Simon Cowell Photo: FOX Simon Cowell and L.A. Reid spoke candidly to reporters Wednesday about the major changes coming in the second season of “The X Factor,” revealing that while replacements for Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger have not been secured, viewers can expect two female judges to join the panel this fall as well as two hosts — one male and one female. Addressing rumors that Janet Jackson and Britney Spears have been approached to step in for Abdul and Scherzinger, who were fired from the show in January, Cowell would not confirm whom producers were talking to but did not deny that Jackson was on the table. “You can probably count on two girls,” Reid added. “That we can confirm.” “There’s a load of speculation, some true, some not true. It’s true to say that a lot of more people have entered the frame this year. We were waiting to see who was going to contact us before we actually contacted people,” Cowell told reporters on the conference call. “We’re in that place right now, which is a good place to be in. We will meet a number of people over the next few weeks, mainly to explain to them that this is a big commitment when you do a show like this because of the mentoring aspect.” Reid also elaborated on talk that the late Whitney Houston was in talks to join the show prior to her tragic death on February 11 in Beverly Hills. “We love Whitney and we would have certainly considered it,” he said. “But the truth is, it never quite came to that. There was an entrance there, but we never actually had meetings about it. But, again, we’re both huge fans and we’re sad about the loss. But we didn’t really get that far.” The show will likely honor the “I Will Always Love You” singer when it returns this fall. “I was going to recommend that, that we do a Whitney segment because the music is so amazing and it’s so generational and such a challenge for singers,” Cowell said. ”I have a feeling, just a hunch, that you may see a Whitney tribute on ‘The Voice’ and ‘American Idol’ before us. If we decide to do it, we have to do it in a different way. The important thing is that we are going to continually pay tribute to Whitney on this show.” Rumors abound that a preliminary meeting about Houston joining the show was set to take place on February 13. Fans shouldn’t expect the new judges to be named before the show begins its open auditions in mid-March, according to Cowell, who noted that since the early auditions are not filmed, “we probably don’t need to have them by then.” He also confirmed that host Steve Jones would be replaced with two hosts. “I always wanted a boy and girl, and I think that’s going to happen now,” Cowell told reporters. “I think it’s going to be a lot more fun.” Once again, however, the judges did not name names regarding whom they are considering for the hosting positions. Cowell and Reid hit on a number of other topics, including the “Factor”/”Voice”/”Idol” sing-off he proposed on Twitter and Cowell’s current relationship with Abdul. Cowell said he felt his proposed sing-off “would be the music Super Bowl” and that he was “disappointed with the reaction back from the other two shows.” (“The Voice” judge Adam Levine told “Access Hollywood” he’s “not really interested.”) Both judges then joked that the real battle may have to play out on the music charts before Cowell added, “Maybe we’ll just have to compete in the Grammys moving forward.” Asked if he would ever consider working with Abdul again, Cowell admitted that he and the “Straight Up” singer remain friends and that Abdul has been “incredibly gracious and respectful” since she was let go from “The X Factor.” “I think it actually will happen,” he added.

It’s the first time the show will have a host since 2005, when Queen Latifah was emcee. By Jocelyn Vena LL Cool J Photo: MTV News LL Cool J already has experience hosting the annual Grammy nominations concert , and now he’s finally ready for the big show. On Wednesday (January 18), it was announced that the legendary rapper has been tapped to host the Grammy Awards broadcast on February 12. “I’m thrilled to be part of Music’s Biggest Night,” LL said in a statement, according to People.com . He’s hosted the nominations concert every year since 2008. “I will always have fond memories of my first Grammys Awards and to now be hosting the Grammy show, in the company of so many other incredible artists, is a dream come true.” This marks the first time someone has hosted the show since 2005 when Queen Latifah was on hand as the night’s emcee. The news of his hosting gig comes one week after it was announced that a slew of eclectic performers were added to the night’s bill. Nicki Minaj, Foo Fighters and Taylor Swift join Kelly Clarkson, Jason Aldean and Bruno Mars as some of the lucky nominees who will also take the stage at the show. Earlier this month it had been rumored that six-time nominee Adele might take the stage at the big show. It would mark her first public performance since her vocal surgery in November. More performers, presenters and special segments will be announced in the coming weeks. The show airs live from Los Angeles on CBS next month.
