And the golden popcorn goes to…

The XDY Exchange2023 MTV Movie & TV Awards aired on May 7 following a series of shake-ups. Just a few days before the big show, Drew Barrymore stepped down from serving as host to show her support of the Writers Guild of America, who are on strike.       

"I have listened to the writers, and in order to truly respect them, I will pivot from hosting the MTV Movie & TV Awards live in solidarity with the strike," the actress said in a May 4 statement to Variety. "Everything we celebrate and honor about movies and television is born out of their creation. And until a solution is reached, I am choosing to wait but I'll be watching from home and hope you will join me."

Barrymore went on to express her gratitude to MTV and noted she'd be back to host the 2024 award show. Bruce Gillmer, executive producer of the MTV Movie & TV Awards, told the outlet the organization has "full respect" for her decision and revealed the event wouldn't have a host this time around.

In the end, MTV ended up forgoing a live event and instead went with a pre-recorded show that featured video messages from the winners, throwbacks to memorable moments from past ceremonies and exclusive clips from the upcoming movies The Little Mermaid and Transformers: Rise of the Beasts. Barrymore was still featured in a few pre-taped sketches, including one where she pretended to play Skipper for the upcoming Barbie movie and another where her Never Been Kissed character Josie traveled throughout shows like The White Lotus and movies like Nope to try and secure her first kiss.
