Despite the writer’s strike the show must go on for the Networks (when possible) and so the People’s Choice awards aired yesterday. Queen Latifah hosted the “newsmagazine” style broadcast, on CBS. Two of the big winners of the night were Johnny Depp and Reese Witherspoon, taking home Best Actor and Actress respectively. Celebrities made appearances by prerecorded acceptance speeches and vintage video clips, which were mostly montages of memorable moments. Here are some of the top winners (hardly any inspiring choices but that’s the nature of this particular award show):
