The 'Night at the Museum' actor was given his prize by Kiefer Sutherland, puppet Triumph the Insult Comic Dog and Zac Efron and says they were keen not to not take themselves too seriously unlike stars at the more prestigious Academy Awards.
He said: "That was really fun. We thought it was pretty funny at the Oscars this year when all the nominees were lauded by their peers in a serious way. We wanted to play around with that.
"I was probably least impressed with Triumph. But Zac is the sweetest guy. Kiefer, for me, was awesome. I'm a huge '24' fan."
Although it had already been announced Ben was going to be honoured at the ceremony - held at the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, California - he admits he was still nervous when he walked on stage.
He revealed: "I'll always find a way to stress out about anything. If I won. If I'm thinking I'm going to win. If I don't think I'm going to win. But I feel we had a nice balance up there."
Other winners on the night included 'Twilight' star Robert Pattinson who scooped three of the film's five gongs, Zac Efron who received the prize for Best Male Performance for his role in 'High School Musical 3: Senior Year' and Zac's co-star Ashley Tisdale who was handed the statuette for Best Breakthrough Performance by a Female.
