Last night, the MTV Movie Award for Best Kiss was awarded to Sasha Baron Cohen and Will Ferrell for their kiss in Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. This is the second year in a row that the Best Kiss award went to two men. Last year, the prize went to Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger for Brokeback Mountain.

Now, since these awards are voted on by MTV viewers, I think we've got a clear signal that MTV viewers want to see two guys kissing in movies more often.

In accepting the award, Cohen and Ferrell gave the audience what they wanted and locked lips once more.

The Awards had a couple more (minor) gay moments. Introducing the category, I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry stars Adam Sandler and Kevin James talked about their first kiss. At first it sounded like the two kissed the same girl, but Sandler confessed that he pretended to be a girl in order to kiss James. (Yeah, that joke went down with a thud.) Earlier in the ceremony, host Sarah Silverman joked that 300 was named for how gay it rated on a scale of 1 to 10.

Speaking of a cheeky look at the movies, it's doubtful Will Ferrell will ever score an Oscar win, but his odds of winning at this year's MTV Movie Awards are pretty damn great. Ferrell is up for a whole slow of awards, most notably for our interests, he snagged a nod for Best Kiss for the same-sex snogging in Talledega Nights: The Legend of Ricky Bobby. This follows in the footsteps of last year's winners Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger. However, Ferrell's lip lock with Sacha Baron Cohen in Talladega Nights was considerably more lighthearted than Brokeback Mountain's smooch. (I've got the Ferrell/Cohen smooch after the jump.) Ferrell and Cohen will have to beat out Cameron Diaz & Jude Law in The Holiday, Columbus Short & Meagan Good in Stomp The Yard, Mark Wahlberg & Elizabeth Banks in Invincible, and Marlon Wayans & Brittany Danie lin Little Man.

Looking at that list of nominees, I'd say the same-sex snog has a good chance of winning again.

Other gay noms of interest include Best Picture nominees Blades of Glory, Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan and Little Miss Sunshine all of which were more or less gay-friendly. Even Pirates of the Caribbean has a gay-sensibility.

A charming reader directed us to an interesting story about Evan Darling, a 39-year-old gay man who also happens to be an auto racer with his sights on NASCAR. Having just completed his first pro race (The Grand-Am Koni Challenge in Miami), Darling has bumped out of the amateur circuit and may be on his way to becoming the first openly gay NASCAR driver. Darling has a gay bar for a sponsor (Georgie's Alibi) but otherwise doesn't see himself as being much different than any other guy on the track -- he's just another kid who grew up wanting to race cars.

Darling notes:

"I think it’s a pretty bold move, being an out pro racecar driver ... But every step we make, where we have people doing things that you don’t see a typical gay person doing, is a step in the right direction."

Darling also notes that were he to get into NASCAR, he thinks the fans might have more problem with his sexuality than the other drivers. Heck -- Jeff Gordon would probably be relieved to have the heat off of him for once (due primarily to his good looks, fans of Gordon's rivals have long gay-baited the straight, married driver). Interestingly, another story on Darling notes that this isn't the first time there's been something queer afoot in professional racing: in 1992, pro veteran driver James Terrell Hayes underwent sexual reassignment and continued to race as Terri O'Connell. Go Terri!

We'd like to celebrate these racing pioneers with this scene from Talladega Nights, in which Ricky Bobby (Will Ferrell) makes out with his gay, French arch-rival (Sacha Baron Cohen) after the climactic race. Enjoy!
