The MTV Movie & TV Awards has lost its host in #StrikeSolidarity

[sandstorm]

Drew Barrymore is stepping down as host of this year’s MTV Movie & TV Awards, in a show of support and solidarity to the striking Writers Guild members. https://t.co/5qEGrT24vP

she agreed to return next year, so I guess MTV isn't upset. She will still be watching from home, and had already pre-recorded some segments

no one even watches the VMAs anymore, which used to be one of the year's biggest pop culture nights. def no one watches the Movie awards haha

Do they still do the VMA’s? Would they even have a slot to air it on? MTV doesn’t seem to want to let anyone miss Ridiculousness.

I want to know who's idea it was to make the network 90% Ridiculousness content so I can ask them WHY

[skyler_white_yo]

They should just go back to showing music videos and act like it’s a novel and innovative idea.

[skyler_white_yo]

That’s a nice gesture. Is her regular show still taping?

[nightwing30]

From what I read, her show is almost done for the season and any remaining episodes were filmed prior to the strike going into effect.

They wrapped in April

One of a dozen watching tbh. Nobody watches MTV awards shows anymore.

We quietly & respectfully observed the picketing, from a distance when walking back from lunch break on the lot. We only had a few seconds to look before having to get back to work.
You approached us and attempted to say “we have some actors here” into a megaphone. It didn’t make… https://t.co/8H2hKXcOch

I didn't know who they were either. Apparently they're on Grown-ish.
