- MTV.
both: It's T-shirt time.
- A generation ago, TV stopped being polite
and started getting real...
- Heidi, will you marry me? - With this ring? Yes.
-... and ever since...
- Flavor Flav! - Yes, yes, yes!
-... the characters we loved...
- Is this chicken what I have, or is this fish?
-... the iconic lines we quoted...
- That's hot.
-... and the stars we discovered.
- Kelly Clarkson! -... all happened...
- Because I am what? Sickening.
-... without a...
- Ah! -... script.
- What was the reason? - I just explained.
- And tonight, we honor
the year's biggest reality stars
and celebrate the moments we couldn't get enough of.
- ♪ Now get to work ♪
- It's the 2021 "MTV Movie & TV Awards: Unscripted,"
with appearances by Heidi Klum, Winnie Harlow,
Chrishell Stause, Christine Quinn,
Erika Jayne, Christine Chu, Anna Shay, Ray J,
Princess Love, Mary Fitzgerald, Heather Rae Young,
Nikki and Brie Bella, Bretman Rock, Gottmik, Symone,
Tayshia Adams, Charlie, Dixie and the D'Amelio family,
Kyle Richards and Paris Hilton, with our house DJ,
"Bling Empire's" Kim Lee,
and we celebrate this year's reality royalty,
the cast of "Jersey Shore: Family Vacation."
- ♪ Now get to work ♪
- Please welcome your host, Nikki Glaser!
- ♪ Now get to work
- Hi, and welcome to a very special episode
of "Ridiculousness." I'm Nikki Glaser.
Tonight I am so proud to be hosting the first ever
"MTV Movie and TV Awards: Unscripted."
- Woo-hoo! - Yes! Yes.
It's kind of a mouthful, which I guess makes sense
because a mouthful is how many of us have gotten
to where we are tonight, so... right?
- Woo! - Seriously though,
tonight is all about reality TV shows,
so think of this as the Oscars
but for stuff we actually watch, you know?
People always say, "It's fake."
I hate when people say that so much.
"Reality TV is fake."
It's like, do you know what's fake?
Scripted shows are fake!
They are actors pretending to be people saying lines
that are written by white guys in Burbank.
It's the fakest [bleep] ever!
The only thing real about "Bridgerton"
is that guys are actually super weird about their semen.
It is a thing. Don't you hate when you talk
about a reality show that you're excited about,
and there's someone that's like, "I actually,
I've never even seen an episode of the 'Bachelor,'"
and it's like they're so scared that if they watch one episode
that they're just going to get hooked.
It's kind of the same way that straight guys
feel about butt stuff. They're scared
that if they try it once, they're going to have to do it
for the rest of their lives every Monday night,
and the thing is, you might like it!
You will, okay? I speak from experience.
I got my ex-boyfriend into both in the same night.
Thank you, Colton Underwood, seriously. Thank you.
Reality TV is so much better than scripted.
The stakes are higher.
Like on "Killing Eve," Sandra Oh
can play a character who makes life-ruining decisions,
and then she leaves the set,
and she goes back to her normal life,
but on reality TV, the set is their normal life.
Kim had to actually marry Kanye.
Kourtney had to start a family with Scott Disick.
Caitlyn Jenner looks great, honestly.
- Woo! - I want to be clear.
Tonight we are not honoring celebrities
who memorized lines.
We're honoring you because you have bad boundaries, okay?
We judge you at home.
We sit in our couches in our period underwear,
just polishing off a second tub of hummus
like some spinster raccoon with our fingers,
and we watch, and we're like, "I would never act like that."
We need reality stars to make us feel better
about our own pathetic lives!
So tonight, we are celebrating you.
- Woo!
- And seriously, as a reality TV show fan,
dare I say that tonight's awards
might be the most important moment in reality show history
since that girl from "Flavor of Love" pooped on the stairs.
So how about we get sharted?
- Woo! - Spinning for us tonight,
from "Bling Empire," it's DJ Kim Lee!
- Woo! - You look great.
- She's beautiful. - I'm Nikki Glaser.
Let's kick this thing off!
Our first presenters are actual real models.
It's not just something they put in their Instagram bios.
From the hit show "Making the Cut,"
the unfairly gorgeous
Heidi Klum and Winnie Harlow.
- Thanks, guys. Well,
We could not be more excited to be here at the first ever
"MTV Movie & TV Awards: Unscripted,"
handing out the first trophy of the night!
The secret reason why we're all here,
and all of you are watching,
is that we're all addicted to reality television!
- Woo!
- And it's not just the glamour,
the competition or the drama.
It's that we all get to know the people
in the middle of it all and feel their stories.
- Some of them are looking for love.
Some dream of becoming the next hip-hop sensation,
while others are lip-syncing for their lives.
They're also housewives, housemates, a whole lot of fun
and a whole lot of drama.
- So here are the nominees for Best Reality Cast.
- Best Reality Cast.
- Check, check. - We're going to split it.
- Broke bitches split checks. - Ah!
- What is going on?
- "The Real Housewives of Atlanta."
- Nuh-uh! - I will quarantine a bitch.
- I think the voices may have been in Kenya's head.
- And your 90 days starts right now.
- "90 Day Fiancé."
- We come from two completely different cultures.
- I not believe I'm here.
I take green card and stay here.
- "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta." [indistinct chatter]
- You're pregnant? - Stop it.
[overlapping chatter]
- What's up, B squad? - Oh!
- "RuPaul's Drag Race."
- I'm just like, "Mm, mm, mm, mm.
Girl, this is tasty, girl."
- Willkommen!
- "Jersey Shore: Family Vacation."
- Yay!
- I rented a whole resort, you goof.
- Oh, damn!
- I mean... - Well, let's see who it is.
And the Golden Popcorn goes to...
- [drum rolls]
- Yeah, I was right.
- Woo! - "RuPaul's Drag Race"!
- Woo!
- Walk! Walk! Walk! Walk! Walk!
- Yes!
- Hey, y'all. - Oh, my god, yes!
- Yes! - Thank you guys so much.
I hate our cast, but I love that you guys loved them.
- You weren't supposed to tell them on the mic, Mik.
- I'm just kidding.
Every single one of those girls are literally our sisters,
so I'm so proud to be up here representing them right now,
and with my angel of life, Symone.
- Hey! Thank y'all so much for voting for us.
Thank you to our cast.
Thank you to Miss Paul for everything!
- Yes! - Look at them.
- We love you! - Hey! You get to take it!
Let's go!
- These... Wow! Great... - I'm going to tackle you!
- Condragulations!
Now, I got to say, you two are a perfect example
of why our casting is so great. You are two of the greatest
cast members we have ever had on our little show.
- Woo! - Yes, and we might add
that now that all this is lifting
and performances are open,
bars are open, your drag brunches are open,
please go and support your local queens.
- Yes! - Please, please, please.
- Support your queens! - Thank you.
- Thank you, MTV!
- Thank you! - Woo!
- Hi, gorgeous.
- Coming up, we've got a situation:
The stars of "Jersey Shore" are crowned Reality Royalty!
From "Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood,"
Ray J and Princess Love award your favorite dating show,

- Welcome back, guys.
So I want to acknowledge all of these faces
zooming in right now on the screen.
Hello. Welcome.
It's like you're here, but it's not at all as good.
Yeah. No one is going to be impressed
when you tell your friends, but hi, guys.
You know, I truly feel like I'm teaching during a pandemic.
I feel like a schoolteacher except that I get paid
a living wage, but thank you for being here.
Tonight, our audience is maskless,
but we have all been through multiple
rounds of testing, right,
and we're following rigorous set protocols.
We all got nasal swabs,
even though I did request anal ones.
So, guys, I don't know.
You may know me as a stand-up comedian
who talks a lot about anal, but there's a lot more to me.
I actually have my own reality show history,
dare I say my own journey?
[emotional piano music plays]
I got my start on reality TV
at the precious wide-eyed age of 21 just a few years ago.
Oh, thanks. It's true.
I made it to the semifinals of "Last Comic Standing"
season four at the age of 21.
I didn't win that year, but then 4 years later,
I went back on the show,
and I didn't get any further,
but I was older.
In 2017, I appeared on "Celebrity Ninja Warrior"
for about 9 seconds,
and then most recently,
I was a contestant on "Dancing with the Stars" season 27.
Yes, that is a real number.
On that season, I came in dead last.
It was truly the most humiliating moment
of my entire life, no joke.
I lost to a guy named Grocery Store Joe and a blind woman.
It's true. I'm really excited tonight
because my partner, Gleb, is here.
Gleb, you did what you could. It's good to see you, Gleb.
How are you? Good to see you again.
I forgot how hot you were. It's insane.
Like, Gleb, you're as hot as your name is disgusting.
Like, that is exactly Gleb. No, I love you, Gleb.
You were such a good coach with me.
I was a terrible dancer, but you were
so understanding about that. There was one practice, though,
that you were really hard on me,
but boners happen all the time
when you're grinding on someone 7 hours a day, you know?
No, Gleb, it's good to see you.
Actually, Gleb, I wanted to let you know,
I've been working on my ballroom,
so I think I can fit them, but I...
You were a great partner. I love you, Gleb,
and your latest dance partner, Chrishell Stause
from Netflix's "Selling Sunset" is here.
Hi, Chrishell.
I met you earlier, and it wasn't weird at all for me.
I'm not jealous. No, you and Gleb killed it.
It was so awesome to watch you.
There's no comparing me and you honestly
because you got way further with Gleb than I did.
I think you guys banged, but I don't...
It's none of my business, but I want all the details,
and I've written some fan fiction about it.
I'll send you the Google Doc.
But anyway, here to present the award for Best Dating Show,
the couple who is hopefully still together
by the time they hit the stage,
from "Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood,"
It's Ray J and Princess Love.
- Yo, yo. What's up? What's up? Right here, baby.
Right here. It's all good.
What's up, everybody?
Yeah, we still going to be together by the time it's over.
- We're married.
[laughs] We're not going anywhere.
Watching these dating shows makes me so happy
to be in a relationship.
We never have to worry about competing for love ever again,
and that makes it so much more fun to watch.
It's hard to pick a favorite.
- You know, I like "90 Day Fiancé."
You know, I like "Ex on the Beach."
I like "Ex on the Beach."
- Really? - I mean, between that show,
between 20 dudes competing for one bachelorette
or 20 girls in bikinis,
you know what I mean, or me just buying some ass...
- We're talking later.
- All right. But we can't talk before I buy some ass.
- I can't take you serious right now.
Here are the nominees for Best Dating Show.
- Best Dating Show.
- In the next 10 seconds, you could meet your husband.
- "The Bachelorette."
- I love you.
- "Love is Blind."
- You're a beautiful person.
I don't have to see you to say that.
- Do you think Jovi is ready to settle down?
- "90 Day Fiancé."
- "Ready to Love."
- We're going to do a blind taste-test.
Mm. It's got me tipsy.
- I feel like Disco is my soulmate.
- I love him, Mom.
- "Ex on the Beach."
- I'm a fiancé in the chalet.
- And the Golden Popcorn goes to...
- Oh, my God. "The Bachelorette."
- "The Bachelorette"!
- Congratulations. - You look gorgeous.
- [laughs]
This is wild.
Well, while I am the one up here accepting this award,
honestly, this award goes to Bachelor Nation,
all the people behind the camera
but also all the fans,
and my season was very unexpected the way
that it all played out, but also, at the same time,
God's timing is what's supposed to be, and I don't know.
I just want to thank everybody, especially my fiancé, Zac Clark
because I wouldn't be with him unless this show happened,
but also, everybody else in production,
you guys are like my family, so thank you, and I don't know.
Love wins. Okay.
- Please welcome the stars of "Total Bellas,"
Nikki and Brie Bella!
- All right. We're here to present
the Golden Popcorn for Best Fight.
- And since we are WWE Hall of Famers,
we have some advice. - Yes.
Ladies, if you're going to flip a table, lift with your legs!
- That's right, and don't throw out your back.
Throw a glass of wine.
- Exactly. - You grab it by the stem,
and you aim a foot higher than your target.
- That's right, and if you're going to put someone
in a sleeper hold, do it when they're distracted.
- Oh, yeah. - Oh, my God, Brie, look!
It's Timothée Chalamet.
- Oh, my God--oh!
- Sis, just don't fight it. And the nominees are...
- Best Fight.
- Kourtney Kardashian versus Kim Kardashian-West,
"Keeping Up with the Kardashians."

I'll punch you in your face.

- This is my olive branch. - Okay.
- I've reached out many times.
- I'm good not being friends with you.
- Kandu Muse versus Tamisha Iman,
"RuPaul's Drag Race: Untucked."
- You're not being confident. You're being arrogant.
- Let me be arrogant, baby! - I said what I said.
- Suck it, bitch. - This was a game.
- Sorry, you okay? - I'm good.
- Okay, good.
- And the Golden Popcorn goes to...
- Come on. There you go.

[upbeat music]
- Our next presenter is a pioneer of reality TV.
She's an entrepreneur,

She is the star of her documentary and podcast,
"This is Paris."
Please welcome one of the most iconic women

Love you, bitch. You look gorgeous.
- This is the first-ever "MTV: Unscripted Awards,"
so obviously, as the OG, I had to be here tonight
to present what is basically a lifetime achievement award
for reality greatness: the Reality Royalty Award.
From the moment they blew off their first shift
at that T-shirt shop on the boardwalk
to the nationwide domination of the term GTL
to the slips, falls
and all the times they all got totally lit,
we've always known one thing:
We love them because we know them.
They're real, and they are reality royalty.
- Reality Royalty: "Jersey Shore:
Family Vacation."
- I'm going to Jersey Shore, bitch!
- It's crazy.
You have strangers living with you the whole summer.
- The nightlife, the girls.
- Guidos everywhere, hot girls and house music.
- You guys ready to party with me this summer?
- I like cute Italian boys with muscles!
- Lads, it's all worked up. It's called the Situation.
- Gym, tanning, laundry, every day.
It's just a lifestyle. It's representing family,
friends, tanning, gel, everything.
- Yeah, buddy! - Who did it? Who did it?
- You want to get your [bleep] beat? You get your [bleep] eat.
You can stay, get your [bleep] ass beat.
- Okay. - Ugh!
- [bleep] - Stop!
- Oh!
- Shut your mouth, you dirty little hamster.
- Oh, yeah? You think I'm a dirty little hamster?
- Oh, [bleep] - We're back, bitches!
- We all grew up -- - Take your titty out.
- -- sort of. - Let the fist pumping begin.
- Everyone's [Indistinct] are still exactly the same.
- Motherhood has made me crazy.
- We are just loving each other and having a blast.
- As we age, we just get more delinquency. What's the word?
- Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino is sentenced
to 8 months in prison.
- Oh, my God. - [Indistinct]
- That was so [bleep] up.
- Friends and family is all you got...
- I'm pregnant.
- ... and we feel it falling apart sometimes.
The fact that we're able to save it,
it makes me appreciate it a lot more.
- BDS is in the building!
- I have a really awesome comeback story.
We did it, honey. I think I'll be an amazing dad.
We're going to be like one, big,
giant dysfunctional family.
- I feel like we're all at a turning point in our lives,
and there's so much to look forward to.
- This family keeps growing and growing.
- How we met, what we've done together,
everything from Jersey to Miami to Italy.
We've gone through so much together.
- This whole summer has been pretty wild.
- We've all grown very close.
- I want this thing forever.
- Please welcome the cast of "Jersey Shore,"
Snooki, Vinny,
JWoww, Angelina, The Situation, Deena and Pauly D.
- Yeah, so, the party is here! - Woo!
- We're so excited to finally --
- She's drunk, sorry.
- Okay. - Pardon, pardon.
I am finally drunk.
No, but we are so excited to have this moment.
I would like to thank the academy of MTV and Viacom
for acknowledging us because we are hot messes,
and we always put ourselves out there no matter what,
so thank you
for finally acknowledging our hot mess bull[bleep].
- Yes! - Thank you.
Thirteen years ago, we were just a bunch of kids
on the boardwalk, just partying.
We had no idea it was going to change our life forever,
but thank you to all the fans that stuck with us,
MTV, 495 Productions, we love you guys. Thank you.
- Yes. - This award goes out
to anyone that's afraid of being their authentic self,
so shout-out to you. We love you.
- Thank you so much, everybody.
- And shout-out to Pauly D, Deena and Mike
in the background. What up, guys?
- Yes, we love you guys! Thank you!
- You know, I think it's a good time for us
to give something back to you, so we've got a little surprise.
Check out this exclusive sneak-peek
at the upcoming season of "Jersey Shore:
Family Vacation."
- Mosey, what's happening out there?
- Hey!
- Woo! - Oh, my goodness!
- What the -- - Happy sober-versary, bro!
- Yeah! - All right.
All right. We're coming!
- [Indistinct] DJ right now up in this bitch.
- Happy sober-versary! - [Indistinct]
- Mike, Mike, Mike!
- I would have been happy with funfetti cupcakes,
but for my wife and the squad to really organize this
and really rally around me,
just can't get no better than that. This is awesome.
Yay!
- All right. It's happening.
I'm about to pull up to Mike's house. Let's do it!
- Thank you. - Uh-oh. What's next?
- I'm going to crash. - Who is that?
- Is it a petting zoo? - What?
- Oh! [overlapping chatter]
- Oh, my God!
- The party is [bleep] here.
- Congratulations!
- Oh, my God. Thank you so much.
- He's crying! He's crying!
- Please welcome former bachelorette
and upcoming mentor of "The Bachelorette,"
season 17, Tayshia Adams.
- I'm not sure if you guys have been following the news,
but a huge story came out recently,
and I'm here to set the record straight.
That's right: Bennifer is back, baby,
and that is all I want to talk about!
I know this really isn't the time to do that,
but thankfully, there is a place to share your feelings,
talk about relationship drama and work it all out.
Here are the nominees for Best Talk and Topical Show.

"What What Happens Live With Andy Cohen."

- I want to give a quick shout-out to my mother
for teaching me to be such a go-getter.
Her hoo-ha was the first barrier I broke through.
- "The Daily Show With Trevor Noah."
- People were singing "Sweet Caroline"
which was genius because any celebration
that's singing "Sweet Caroline"
isn't going to get broken up by the cops.
- And the Golden Popcorn
goes to "The Daily Show With Trevor Noah."
- Okay, people. I'm going to go straight into it
and say thank you so much to every single person
who has watched this show from the very beginning
to the people who jumped in the middle,
the people who might have started watching yesterday.
I appreciate every single one of you because without you,
I would have no show. We would do no show.
There would be no show, so thank you so much.
Thank you for carrying me during this pandemic.
Thank you for allowing me into your homes
while we were all stuck during everything:
the protests, the madness, the Trump of it all.
I just want to say thank you, and thank you to everybody
who helps me make this show. I don't do this alone.
I'm stuck alone, but I don't do this alone,
and so thank you to everyone who makes this possible.
I'll see you on the other side of the pandemic, people.
Get your vaccine. Let's have fun in the summer.
- Coming up, they slay all day.
Erika Jayne, Gottmik and Symone
serve us the winner for your favorite social star.
They're not leaving without their couture.
The stars from "Bling Empire" are here,
and the Golden Popcorn for your favorite new unscripted series
is next, presented by Sonic.
- I love this.
It's just there's so many recognizable faces here.
It feels like page five of Cameo.
I'm just kidding. It's more like seven.
It's so funny... No, it's really cool
because I feel like every time you guys get up to go pee,
I get to see your seat fillers,
and that's not the person that sits in for you.
That's your butt injections, and they look great.
I would actually like to take a second
to say congratulations to Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino.
Can you believe it has been 4 years
since he's touched a drop of alcohol?
Yeah. It's true, and 5 since he's touched a tax return.
Yeah. More like gym, tan, launder money.
You guys might recognize our next presenters from the TikTok
you're watching right now, so please look up
because you're about to miss them on TV.
Remember TV? Big TikTok?
Please welcome from "The D'Amelio Show,"
Charli, Dixie, Heidi and Marc D'Amelio.
- We're all so excited to be here.
When Dixie and Charli first started posting their videos,
none of us had any idea what a crazy ride it would be.
- If you had told me that we'd all wind up with our own show,
I would have thought you were joking.
- Now we want to thank everyone
and do something pretty cool.
We get to show you some of our brand-new show.
- We hope you have just as much fun
hanging with our family as we did when we made it.
Here's an exclusive look at "The D'Amelio Show."
- Dancing was always part of my life.
You might know me from TikTok.
- Charli, my sister.
We are best friends, and other days,
we can't even look at each other.
- Dixie, she is very protective over me.
- She's been going through a lot.
You're shaking.
- I can't help it. - I want to be there for her
when she's going through these sorts of things.
- I'm so happy for them. Here I go again.
- One, two, go, three, go, turn.
Yeah.
- We're getting the band back together.
- Justin Bieber, do that again.
- Being normal kids,
that doesn't change with a following.
- I still have to make my bed. - We're the...
- D'Amelios.
- I cannot wait for you to see the rest,
and it's coming to Hulu later this year.
- And the other cool thing about tonight

I am so honored for this lovely, lovely honor and prize.
I want to thank MTV and Viacom and Chris McCarthy
and my family at World of Wonder
for making our little show so much fun to do.
We have a great time doing it, and I feel so fortunate.
But I got to say,
in all these years in hosting a television show,
I learned how to do this from a woman who is phenomenal,
and I want to thank her for teaching me
everything I needed to know to host a television show,
and that woman is Cher, man. Cher, man!
You know, so, Cher, why don't you snap out of it
and come do our show, man? Thank you!
- Please welcome the star of MTV's "Following:
Bretman Rock." It's Bretman Rock!
- In 2020, despite Ms. COVID
bringing out all the blah in all of us,
the best unscripted shows helped us escape
into the world a little more stimulating.
Whether we were cooking with pop princess
