Robert Pattinson dropped the mother of f bombs during a tribute to his Water for Elephants co-star Reese Witherspoon at the MTV Movie Awards on Sunday. And the censors were not quick enough!
Witherspoon was receiving the Generation Award and Pattinson told the story of the first time he had worked with Witherspoon.
Pattinson started: “I don’t know if everyone knows, but I did my first movie with you. Called Vanity Fair, and you played my mother. What I later learned though was that you were directly responsible for cutting my part of the movie.” Witherspoon shook her head and mouthed ‘not true’ in the audience. He continued: “Seven years later, we worked together in a movie called Water for Elephants. And this time you played my lover. I didn’t cut you out. But I did f*ck you.”
“Reese, working with you twice and not getting cut out once was such a special experience but if there’s one thing I’ll take with me. As you get older, it’s not always a bad thing to have sexual chemistry with your mother. Congratulations.”
Witherspoon hit Pattinson right back. During her acceptance speech, she said: “By the way Rob, the punchline to your joke was I played your mother. We had a sex scene. So really you’re the best motherf**ker in Hollywood.” The censors were way more prepared this time.
