It is also the headquarters of the Al Malaikah Temple, a division of the Shriners. , the winner of the best-breakthrough female performer for ``A Walk to Remember'' was beside herself as if, well, she had just won an Oscar.

The MTV Movie Awards, broadcasting at 9 tonight with preshow coverage at 8:30 p.m., exists not to praise Hollywood but parody it with off-color cracks, although awards are handed out based on votes from MTV viewers. ``This show really is incredibly irreverent when it comes to awards shows,'' said Salli Frattini, executive producer of the MTV Movie Awards. ``We're focusing on movies and awards that other shows would never talk about.''

``I'm really bummed we didn't win best kiss,'' Nicole Kidman said, referring to her smooching scenes with Ewan McGregor, while accepting the best-musical-sequence win for ``Moulin Rouge Moulin Rouge (French for Red Mill or windmill) is a traditional cabaret, built in 1889 by Joseph Oller, who already owned the Paris Olympia. .'' For all the tongue-in-cheek high jinks, the MTV Movie Awards did have its serious moments. Chris Tucker, winner of best fight for ``Rush Hour 2,'' told the MTV audience of a recent trip to Africa with U2's Bono and U.S. Treasury U.S. Treasury Created in 1798, the United States Department of the Treasury is the government (Cabinet) department responsible for issuing all Treasury bonds, notes and bills. Some of the government branches operating under the U.S. Treasury umbrella include the IRS, U.S. Secretary Paul O'Neill. ``I have seen some things over there that changed my life,'' Tucker said, dedicating his popcorn trophy to the African women and children he met who were infected with AIDS. While the big screen was showing clips of best-female performance nominees, one of whom was Kidman, off camera, McGregor, who was presenting the award, expressed his bias by putting his hands to his mouth and cheering with the audience. A grateful Kidman, who won, thanked everybody, saying, ``You guys really supported me through a tough time,'' in reference to her split with ex-hubby Tom Cruise. She wasn't the only celebrity to bring up uncomfortable topics. Squeezing Adam Sandler's hand, Winona Ryder got the truth off her chest, so to speak. Sandler, who stars with Ryder in the upcoming ``Mr. Deeds,'' pressed the actress to come clean with the MTV audience. He seemed to be alluding to the shoplifting Ask a Lawyer Question Country: United States of America State: Florida caught shoplifting at sears 12/05/05, first time, 20yearsold, have no criminal record. and drug possession charges the actress is facing - but then asked her about breast implants Breast Implants Definition Breast implantation is a surgical procedure for enlarging the breast.

(The show was taped before Ryder broke her arm while pushing through a crowd of reporters Monday, leaving the judge to postpone until today a hearing to determine whether she'll stand trial.) Thanks to the comedic edge of Jack Black, who presided over this year's show with Sarah Michelle Gellar Sarah Michelle Gellar (born April 14, 1977) is an American actress. She is perhaps best known for her role as the fictional character Buffy Summers in the acclaimed television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, for which she received a Golden Globe Award nomination. of UPN's ``Buffy the Vampire Slayer,'' the antics didn't lapse for long. Part of their hosting duties besides singing and dancing included starring in the hilarious movie parodies that MTV is so famous for - well, besides music videos. In the past, viewers have watched Sarah Jessica Parker as her ``Sex and the City'' character cruising for a man in ``The Matrix'' and Lisa Kudrow matching wits with ``Austin Powers' '' Dr. Evil. Frattini said that this year promises more of the same, poking fun at three of the MTV audience's favorite blockbusters from the last year. ``They're funny, really cleverly done and, you know, it's always one of the favorite things of the show,'' she said, not wanting to reveal too much. Musical performances included the peppermint-hot White Stripes, who cranked out a medley of songs off their latest album ``White Blood Cells'' clad as prep-school types in red and white duds. The band conjured the early-'60s TV music show ``Hullabaloo'' on stage and needed a do-over after they blundered. There were no flaws for the man whose latest album, ``The Eminem Show,'' debuted last week at the top of the Billboard chart. Comedian Chris Rock hailed ``the baddest rapper in the world'' moments before Eminem's alter ego A doctrine used by the courts to ignore the corporate status of a group of stockholders, officers, and directors of a corporation in reference to their limited liability so that they may be held personally liable for their actions when they have acted fraudulently or unjustly or when , Slim Shady - at least, we think it was him in tights - swooped into a phone booth for a quick change and busted out rhyming ``Without Me.'' But the biggest curiosity of the show was Kelly Osbourne, who got a video introduction from her Prince of F---ing Darkness father, Ozzy Osbourne. He was in England getting ready to serenade serenade [Ital. sera=evening], term used to designate several types of musical composition. Opera and song literature yield numerous examples of the serenade sung or played by a lover at night beneath his beloved's window; outstanding is the Queen of England Noun 1. Queen of England - the sovereign ruler of England female monarch, queen regnant, queen - a female sovereign ruler at Buckingham Palace for her Golden Jubilee pop concert. Yes, even the queen loves MTV's ``The Osbournes.'' On the series, Osbourne shows his affections for the bright-pink-haired Kelly, who made her singing debut with her cover of Madonna's hit ``Papa Don't Preach'' at the MTV Movie Awards. The day before the live taping, Kelly was watching as the White Stripes wrapped their rehearsal when in walked her mom, Sharon, with her little dog in tow. ``Mom,'' Kelly shouted, jumping up from her first-row seat and running over to greet her mom with a hug. Meanwhile, brother Jack stood by as the crew cast shadows on a white screen for Kelly's big number. All but Dad were on hand Saturday, too, lending their moral support for the youngest Osbourne. ``And she's good,'' Frattini said. ``She's going to be very nervous, but I think she's going to fall right into our element here.''
