Spike TV's "Guys Choice," the star-studded seventh annual tribute to the lords of guydom, took place Saturday night at the Sony Pictures Studios in Los Angeles with a cadre of Unforgettable moments. The only celebration of its kind, gathering the biggest names in music, movies, sports and entertainment, premieres on Spike TV Wednesday, June 12 (9:00 PM - 11:00 PM ET/PT).
Ben Affleck took home the night's top honors, as the Academy Award-winning director was presented his prize by another actor with an Oscar in his trophy cabinet, cinematic icon Clint Eastwood. Upon receiving the award, Affleck, whose career has seen him portray American servicemen, took time to give a heartfelt thank you to the American Armed Forces members in attendance.
Jennifer Aniston, with the help of Comedy Central's Jeff Ross, playfully roasted an appreciative Jimmy Kimmel before bestowing the "Funniest M.F." award upon the late night talk show host.
Burt Reynolds was named this year's "Alpha Male," accepting his award from "Boogie Nights" costar Mark Wahlberg. The latter serenaded Reynolds with "The Touch" after the two reenacted a scene from the 1997 cult classic.
Vin Diesel, fresh off of conquering global box offices with "Fast 6," was surrounded by members of the United States Armed Forces onstage while accepting the "Troops Choice" Entertainer of the Year award from Jessica Alba.
The forthcoming "Man of Steel," from director Zack Snyder and produced by "The Dark Knight" trilogy visionary Christopher Nolan, was named "Most Manticipated" film. Superman himself, Henry Cavill, flanked by costars Russell Crowe and Amy Adams, along with Snyder, accepted the award on the film's behalf.
"Old School" castmates Vince Vaughn and Snoop Lion were reunited under a Speaker City banner as the former received the "Guycon" award from his "Wedding Crashers" costar Bradley Cooper. "Ted" director, writer, and star Seth MacFarlane was joined by costar Mark Wahlberg to receive "Guy Movie of the Year" honors on behalf of the breakout hit, with the duo singing the "Thunder Buddies" song in appreciation of the honor.
