The award season and the red carpet are not quite over. The MTV movie awards took place last Sunday.

Comedian Amy Schumer hosted the 24th annual celebration of unique awards such as “Best Scared-As-Sh*t Performance”.

She wasn’t afraid to tackle anything from  Jersey Shore’s Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, Hillary Clinton’s big announcement, and even a dig at MTV “the one network that refuses to air music.”

The more touching moments of the show included speeches by an emotional Shailene Woodley and John Green for their wins and their roles in The Fault In Our Stars.  Before presenting an award, Vin Diesel also broke out into an unexpected but sweet rendition of the song See You Again, dedicated to his close friend, the late Paul Walker.

The winners of the night included:
