Jim Carrey And Spike Lee Scoring Big Honors At MTV Movie Awards

Sandra Bullock, Keanu Reeves, Rosario Dawson and Zach Braff added as presenters.

On Saturday, Jim Carrey will officially join the MTV generation and director Spike Lee will be given a bucket of honor. The Golden Globe-winning actor and Academy Award-nominated director will be presented with special prizes during 2006's MTV Movie Awards, which air June 8 on MTV.

Carrey, best known for starring roles in such films as "The Mask," "The Truman Show" and "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective," is being honored with the MTV Generation Award for his work in keeping the MTV audience entertained with years of memorable movie performances. Tom Cruise was the first recipient of the MTV Generation Award during last year's Movie Awards ceremony (see [article id="1503513"]"Eminem Teases Lindsay And Newbies Rule At MTV Movie Awards"[/article]).

Director Spike Lee ("Inside Man," "Malcolm X") will receive the Silver Bucket of Excellence Award for his powerful and thought-provoking 1989 film "Do the Right Thing." The award honors films that have left an indelible imprint on moviegoers and MTV's audience. "The Breakfast Club" took Silver Bucket honors at last year's event.

The 2006 MTV Movie Awards will be hosted by Jessica Alba (see [article id="1529804"]"Jessica Alba Tapped To Host MTV Movie Awards; Leather Chaps Not Yet Confirmed"[/article]), and will feature performances by Christina Aguilera, AFI and Gnarls Barkley (see [article id="1533154"]"Christina Aguilera, AFI To Perform At MTV Movie Awards"[/article]).
