Robert Downey Jr., Lindsay Lohan and Sarah Jessica Parker will have to wait their turn Sunday night. Before the 2008 MTV Movie Awards main event begins, film fans will get their movie treats early, when MTV News correspondents Tim Kash and Kim Stolz host the "Coming Attractions" preshow, live from the golden carpet June 1 at 7:30 p.m. ET.
While final votes are tallied in the race for the Golden Popcorns, Stolz and "Project Runway" season-four winner Christian Siriano will weigh in on who looks fierce and who looks like a golden fool. Fans will also get a chance to give their input on the best and worst looks of the evening, and they can go online to submit questions for the correspondents to ask celebs. (Log on now to the MTV Movies Blog to help Kim choose what to wear and get other behind-the-scenes looks at preparations for the big event.)
Kash, meanwhile, will rock the MTV News home base, where he'll talk to the stars and roll out exclusive new clips from some of the most-anticipated upcoming films, including the superhero comedy "Hancock," the MTV television movie "American Mall" and the vampire teen sensation "Twilight."
This year's Movie Awards will be a classic Hollywood experience: The golden carpet will be decked out to feel like an old-time premiere, complete with costumed ushers and movie theater candy.
Not to be outshined by the extensive preshow, the always-irreverent MTV Movie Awards will be hosted this year by comic Mike Myers, and will include appearances by Will Ferrell, Ed Norton, Ben Stiller, Seth Rogen, Jennifer Hudson, Brendan Fraser and more.
Also rocking the stage will be Coldplay and the Pussycat Dolls, each performing a new song as part of the festivities.
The MTV Movie Awards will air live on MTV on Sunday at 8 p.m. ET, with MTV News' "Coming Attactions" preshow kicking the evening off at 7:30 p.m. ET!
