The finalists for the MTV Movie Awards were just announced. According to MTV,
“Twilight” took the lead with seven nominations, including nods for Best Movie, Best Female Performance (Kristen Stewart) and Breakthrough Performance Male (Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner). “Slumdog Millionaire” garnered six nominations, including Best Movie, Breakthrough Performance Female (Freida Pinto) and Breakthrough Performance Male (Dev Patel).”
Twilight was originally up for consideration in the following categories:
Best Movie: Twilight
Best Female Performance: Kristen Stewart
Best Male Performance: Robert Pattinson
Breakthrough Female Performance: Kristen Stewart (Dakota Fanning is also nominated for Push)
Breakthrough Male Performance: Both Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner are nominated
Best Villain: Cam Gigandent
Best Kiss: Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart
Best Fight: Robert Pattinson and Cam Gigandet
The total, final-cut nominations for Twilight in a tough year are:
Twilight: Best Movie
Rob Pattinson: Breakthrough Male Performance
Taylor Lautner: Breakthrough Male Performance
Kristen Stewart: Best Female Performance
Best Kiss: Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart
Best Fight: Robert Pattinson and Cam Gigandet
Best Song: Decode by Paramore
Unfortunately Cam Gigandet didn’t make the cut to compete in the Best Villain category. It’s a tough year for that category where Heath Ledger’s Academy Award Winning performance as the Joker is all but a done deal. There’s also the interesting possibility that Rob and Taylor being nominated in the same category may result in a split vote in which case another nominee could glide in.
