'Twilight' Dominates People's Choice Awards

Wednesday was a night to sink your teeth into in Hollywood, as Queen Latifah hosted The 36th Annual People's Choice Awards at the Nokia Theater, and a record 175 million fans voted for the movies, TV shows, and music they wanted to recognize for 2010.

By and large, the people chose old favorites that could have been predicted based on last year's results, such as Twilight: Eclipse, the third installment in the Twilight Saga, which picked up awards for Favorite Movie, Favorite Drama Movie, and Favorite Onscreen Team – Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, and Robert Pattinson (pictured) – just like it's previous incarnation, Twilight: New Moon, did last year. Stewart also walked away with the Favorite Movie Actress award, beating out Angelina Jolie, Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston, and Katherine Heigl. The young actress was slightly bashful about her win. "Thank you so much," she told the fans before admitting, "I've never been to the People's Choice Awards before." Jolie was also passed up for Favorite Action Star, which she has one twice in the past, but went to Jackie Chan this year. Johnny Depp received the Favorite Movie Actor award for Alice in Wonderland, and Zac Efron can be secure in the fact that he is the public's Favorite Movie Star Under 25.

In the TV category, House cleaned up with a win for Favorite TV Drama and an award for Hugh Laurie for Favorite TV Drama Actor. How I Met Your Mother's Neil Patrick Harris and Glee's Jane Lynch won in the respective categories of Favorite TV Comedy Actor and Actress, and Glee predictably won for Favorite TV comedy. In an unique category, Showtime's Dexter was lauded as being the Favorite TV Obsession, whereas the Favorite TV Guilty Pleasure title went to Keeping Up with the Kardashians, which gave Kim and Kourtney the chance to show off their stunning strapless, thigh-length dresses, and allowed Khloe to debut her newly red locks.

Eminem and Rihanna were hits in the music department, winning Favorite Male Artist and Favorite Pop Artist, respectively, and also nabbing an award for Favorite Music Video for "Love the Way You Lie," on which they collaborated. Taylor Swift walked away with a Favorite Country Artist Award, and Katy Perry topped the night off by snagging both Favorite Female Artist and – perhaps the most coveted, and certainly most unique, prize – Favorite Online Sensation. —KIMBERLY STEELE
