For nearly four decades now, Johnny Depp has been the definition of Hollywood cool, bringing his own iconic style to life on the small screen (in "21 Jump Street), in cult faves like "Ed Wood" and "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas," and in big-screen smashes like "Sleepy Hollow," "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and, of course, the "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise.
So, in recognition of his achievements — and all that classic cool — Depp will be honored with the MTV Generation award at the 2012 MTV Movie Awards, broadcasting live on Sunday, June 3 at 9 p.m. ET/PT from the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, California.

Thanks Johnnygirl! That's an interesting award!!!
But those writers over at MTV need to learn some basic, simple arithmetic, four decades means FORTY (40) YEARS. That means Depp started in the business when he was 9??????????????????????????
Sheesh people, get something right, please.

Jun 1 2012 11:06 PM EDT 117 Aerosmith Rockers To Present MTV Generation Award To Johnny Depp!
Steven Tyler and Joe Perry make a special MTV Movie Awards visit Sunday to celebrate their superstar friend.
By Kara Warner (@karawarner)
As if we hadn't already stacked Sunday's MTV Movie Awards with the coolest of all cool factors in naming Johnny Depp our Generation Award recipient, two equally esteemed legends will be on hand to bestow the prestigious honor upon Depp: rock gods Steven Tyler and Joe Perry of Aerosmith.
If the presenter pairing seems at all out of place, rest assured that the rockers have been chummy with Depp for some time and recently held an impromptu and well-documented jam session at the afterparty for Depp's latest movie "Dark Shadows."

And if that trio isn't enough to have you psyched, current "it" rockers the Black Keys will join the celebration and perform a special rendition of their hit "Gold on the Ceiling" in Depp's honor.
The MTV Generation Award is the Movie Awards' highest honor, acknowledging an actor who can be counted on to engage the MTV audience with everything he or she does. Previous recipients include Reese Witherspoon, Sandra Bullock, Ben Stiller, Adam Sandler, Mike Myers, Tom Cruise and Jim Carrey.....

This will be my highlight of the show! Wouldn't it be great if Depp & Co. had a little impromptu jam session on stage? Guess I'm setting the recorder then...

The MTV Movie Awards acknowledges the industry's most beloved actors with the esteemed Generation Award. This particular bucket of Golden Popcorn celebrates an artist's expansive body of work, personal and professional individuality, and, of course, their immense amount of talent. So, it should be no surprise that this year's MTV Generation Award will be presented to the creative genius Johnny Depp.
Known for character roles spanning from the beloved misfit in 'Edward Scissorhands' to the killer barber 'Sweeney Todd' and everyone's favorite swashbuckler, Captain Jack Sparrow (Best Performance winner at the 2007 Movie Awards), we can always count on Depp to keep us entertained. He is fearlessly committed to his films, often able to make fantasies seem relatable and realities seem beautifully dream-like. Whether bringing history to life playing George Jung in 'Blow', or spinning an imaginative take on a classic, like the Mad Hatter, Depp's portraits are consistently rich, giving reason for multiple viewings.
Like his lengthy resume, Depp's talent is one to respect. In his honor, rock duo The Black Keys will perform a special rendition of their hit 'Gold On The Ceiling.' Tune in for the unique performance and to watch Depp receive the Generation Award live during the MTV Movie Awards on Sunday, June 3 at 9/8c.
