The Blind Side star beat out stiff competition, including Jennifer Aniston and Kristen Stewart, to be named favorite movie actress at the 36th Annual People’s Choice Awards, televised live from L.A.’s Nokia Theatre Wednesday.
No stranger to the ceremony – this marks the star’s fifth win for favorite movie actress since her first nomination in 1996 – Bullock, 45, was a double winner Wednesday night: Her film The Proposal, costarring Ryan Reynolds, was named favorite comedy.
“I am only up here because I am fortunate to work with people who make me look good,” a tearful Bullock said while accepting her award. “[Thanks] most of all to my family . . . Life is hard sometimes, but we get through with laughter.”
The actress also acknowledged her fans. “Thank you to everyone who voted,” she said, “because you’re voting for all the people who make me look good – and you’re making me look very good.”
Otherwise, it was Twilight-mania at the Nokia Theatre, where voters didn’t forget about the blockbuster. The teen vampire flick swept the award show, claiming four trophies in total, including favorite movie, favorite on-screen team (an award given out to the entire cast) and favorite franchise. Meanwhile, Taylor Lautner was awarded favorite breakout actor as the series’ sexy werewolf, Jacob Black.
The vampire craze made its way to the television screen too, as HBO’s True Blood sucked up the favorite TV obsession award.
