There were more F-bombs than awards doled out at the MTV Movie Awards.
Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and Kevin Hart perfectly encapsulated a raunchy night with a profanity laden rap about Leonardo DiCaprio’s infamous bear-mauling scene in The Revenant.
The track was supposed to be about the year’s films but there was clearly one focus as they repeated the refrain ‘Leo got (expletive) by a bear.’
