Get your minds out of the gutter - I'm talking about at the People's Choice Awards. The two stars were named Favorite Male and Female Movie Star, respectively, at a (way) scaled-down version of the annual award show. Another casualty of the writer's strike, the show was hosted by Queen Latifah but mostly featured vintage clips and pre-recorded acceptance speeches sandwiched in-between shots of Latifah directly addressing the cameras and walking around an empty studio. I think it was the first time in awards show history that viewers were praying for a badly-choreographed dance number or an excruciatingly-long song medley.
First the cancelled Golden Globes, now this? What's in store for the Academy Awards if the strike isn't settled by then? Get ready for host Jon Stewart broadcasting live from the Quizno's next to the Kodak Theater, showing us shots of the stars that he's clipped from OK! magazine.
