As we kicked back with our bowl of popcorn and watched the MTV Movie Awards over the weekend, we could not help but wonder - where on earth were all of the Latino celebrities?

Were they run over by evil paps? Lost their invitations in the mail? Or were they just too busy to attend? The preguntas have created a fountain of wonder. Fine. We will give credit where credit is due - Cameron Diaz was there to represent para la raza (right), but we can think of dozens of more celebs that could have strutted the red carpet. Even MTV's host Adrienne Bailon was missing in action! Where was she at?!
Here are our top three picks for Latino celebs that should have been at last night's MTV Movie Awards...
Example #1: Zoe Saldana. Not only is she the main female lead in the hit movie "Star Trek," but she also has potential to be voted in for next year's "Best Kiss" award. Getting it on in a space ship with Captain Kirk? Yeah she deserves a nomination!
Example #2: Michelle Rodriguez. The bad ass actress was killed off fairly quickly in the latest installment of "The Fast and the Furious," but let's give homegirl credit for her action scene with Vin Diesel in the beginning of the flick. Jumping from one moving vehicle to another is no easy task. She should get a free pass.
Example #3: Diego Luna & Gael Garcia Bernal. Starring as feuding hermanos in "Rudo y Cursi" may not have landed them a "Best Fight" nomination, but landing first place in Mexico should serve for some street credit no?
Do you think it's fair that Latinos were missing in action at the MTV Movie Awards? Tell us your thoughts!
