Bradley Cooper took the first award at the 2013 MTV Movie Awards which kicked off on Sunday night, April 14 at 9 P.M. ET. Presenter Melissa McCarthy was on hand to announce the winner of Best Male Performance, which went to the Oscar-nominated actor for his performance in "Silver Linings Playbook".
