Not a bad night for the undead. Pale hunk Robert Pattinson scooped up three big MTV movie awards last night for Best Male Drama Performance, Best Fight, and Best Kiss. He also managed to slip the F-word past censors when presenting Reese Witherspoon with a special MTV Generation Award, quipping: "It's not always a bad thing to have sexual chemistry with your mother." Pattinson has played Witherspoon's son in Vanity Fair, but steps up as her love interest in Water for Elephants. But he won the Best Kiss award for his smooch with Kristen Stewart in The Twilight Sage: Eclipse, which also won them both Best Performance awards, and captured a win as Best Movie.

To demonstrate how much he likes to kiss, Pattinson descended into the audience to lock lips with co-star Taylor Lautner. It was the third year that a Twilight movie has, er, eclipsed the competition, notes AP. Tom Felton won the Best Villain award for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Justin Bieber for Best Jaw-Dropping Moment in his new film, and Emma Stone won Best Comedic Performance for Easy A. Host Jason Sudeikis joked about Arnold Schwarzenegger's out-of-wedlock son, and sniggered that Selena Gomez swallowed three of Beibers baby teeth when they kissed. Awkward.
