Short story:
At the MTV Video Awards in The Forum, Inglewood, Los Angeles, California, USA, Miley Cyrus declines to take the stage to accept her Video Of The Year Award for Wrecking Ball. Instead, she gives the microphone to a 22-year-old homeless man, Jesse Helt, who read out a statement saying, "I am accepting this award on behalf of the 1.6m runaways and homeless youth in the United States who are starving, lost and scared for their lives right now. I know, because I am one of those people."
