Rebel Wilson 'The Climb' Performance at the MTV Movie Awards

Culture

Rebel Wilson kicked off tonight's MTV Movie Awards by singing the Miley Cyrus tune "The Climb." It was all very strange. I'm not going to lie. 

I think there was some subtext about overcoming some hardships, but the opening number fell flat. Even when the Pitch Perfect cast took to the stage to back Wilson up with a medley of tunes (including "Lose Yourself" and "Thrift Shop") the opening number just sounded like a mess of noise. A sad truth. A sadder opening.
