June 3, 2000 MTV Movie Awards
The 2000 MTV Movie Awards was taped Saturday, June 3, 2000 at Stage 15 on the Sony Pictures Studios lot in Culver City, California and broadcasted Thursday, June 8, 2000 on MTV and hosted by Sarah Jessica Parker.
Performers were D'Angelo ("Devil's Pie"), NSYNC ("It's Gonna Be Me"), and Metallica ("I Disappear"). There were many presenters for this event including Janet Jackson, Samuel L Jackson, Marlon Wayans and more, but fans would be more excited to see Aaliyah on stage as a presenter.
Regurgitator's song Happiness (Rotting My Brain) would be the choice song for Aaliyah and Freddie Prinze Jr.'s introduction on stage to present the award for "Best Action Sequence" (which was won by George Lucas for Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace -- Yes, Aaliyah met George Lucas).
