Monologue

Welcome to the MTV Movie Awards, no wait, that's not right, it's the Def Oscar Jam!

Chris Rock said he loves the Oscars, but he said differently recently.

The difference between Chris Rock hosting and, say, Billy Crystal? Humor that's biting and true—and always funny.

Count the slams...Tobey Maguire, Colin Farrell, Ja Rule, Chris Rock himself, Cuba Gooding & Boat Trip, Michael Moore ("I shoulda just made Super Size Me...I've done the research!"), George Bush (easy target at a Hollywood party), Soul Plane & "black movies".

The whole political bent is to be expected, but instead of being tired and annoying like most celebrities, Rock actually makes it funny. And he proves you can dislike the Pres and still love the troops...
