'Twilight' scooped five awards at the MTV Movie Awards in Los Angeles last night.

'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' won best male and best female performances for lead stars - and real life couple - Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, while the pair also won the Best Kiss prize at the event at the Universal Studios' Gibson Amphitheatre.

Picking up her Golden Popcorn, Kristen poked fun at Oscar-winning actress Natalie Portman, who was also up for the award, saying: "Sorry, but the popcorn is mine."

British actress Chloe Moretz picked up two awards for Best Breakout Star and Biggest Badass Star while the 'Harry Potter' series missed out on all the big prizes, with only Tom Felton winning his category for Best Villain in 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1'.

He joked: "This will look very nice in my downstairs toilet."

Robert Pattinson made sure to embarrass his 'Water for Elephants' co-star Reese Witherspoon, with whom he previously appeared as her son in 2004 movie 'Vanity Fair', adding the pair had "f**ked" on their latest film.

He joked: "Seven years later we worked together on a movie called 'Water for Elephants' and you played my mother ... I didn't cut you out, but I did f**k you."

British star Robert continued to joke at her expense, adding he had learnt lessons from their time together.

He said: "Now I know that Southern girls can wear girdles but they can't talk about it, Tequila is like Lays chips, you can't just have one, and that it is possible to be 33 per cent lesbian."

However she did not let him get away with it, and upon accepting the Generation Award from the cast of 'Twilight', she turned to Robert and said: "You're the best motherf**ker in Hollywood!"

It was not the only shock of the night - Justin Timberlake groped 'Friends with Benefits' co-star Mila Kunis' breasts while the presented the award for Best Male Performance.

Justin said: "Even though we're in the movie 'Friends with Benefits', we've never dated."

Then, grabbing her chest, he added: "We have a totally platonic relationship, which is why I can do this."
