The teens have spoken, and their tastes have pretty much stayed the same since last year.
The 2011 Teen Choice Awards took place Sunday at the Gibson Amphitheatre, where a plethora of awards were handed out in six genres: movies, television, music, summer, fashion and—most important of all—miscellaneous.
Hosted by The Big Bang Theory hottie Kaley Cuoco, the two-hour award show was home to an epic battle between two huge franchises: Twilight vs. Harry Potter. So which insanely popular series went home with the most surfboards?
Talk about an upset! Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 beat The Twilight Saga: Eclipse for Choice SCi-Fi/Fantasy Movie, while Emma Watson triumphed over Kristen Stewart for Choice Sci-Fi/Fantasy actress. Even more of an upset? Watson and co-star Daniel Radcliffe took home the award for Choice Liplock. Sorry K-Stew and Robert Pattinson. There's always next year.
Don't feel too bad, Twilight fans. Everyone's favorite movie werewolf Taylor Lautner won Choice Sci-Fi/Fantasy actor while Pattinson won Choice Drama Actor for his work in Water For Elephants.
