People's Choice Awards Winners 2011: Johnny Depp, Kristen Stewart, Zac Efron Are Fan Favorites


The 2011 People's Choice Awards were presented earlier this evening and the award for Favorite Movie went to 'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse,' which also won the award for Favorite Drama Movie.

Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner were all on hand to accept the award in person, to cheers from the rapturous audience.

Johnny Depp won the award for Favorite Movie Actor for his roles in 'Alice in Wonderland' and 'The Tourist.' The crowd, which was thrilled to see that Depp took the time out of his busy schedule to attend the ceremony, gave the popular actor a standing ovation for his surprise appearance.

The Favorite Movie Actress award, meanwhile, went to Stewart, who told the surprised crowd that she and her co-stars had been filming the final 'Twilight' film, 'Breaking Dawn,' earlier in the day before rushing to the ceremony.

The win was especially nice for Stewart considering she previously had been passed over for the Favorite Movie Star Under 25 award -- which was sponsored by Moviefone in partnership with the People's Choice Awards -- in favor of surprise winner Zac Efron.

Host Queen Latifah followed up the award to Stewart with an extended comedy bit riffing on the cast of 'Twilight,' who were sitting together in the front row.

Earlier, Jennifer Aniston presented the award for Favorite Comedic Star to Adam Sandler for his crowd-pleasing turn in 'Grown Ups,' which was the highest-grossing live-action comedy film of 2010. 'Grown Ups' also won the award for Favorite Comedy Movie.
