According to MTV between four big wins and host Queen Latifah’s jokes, the vampire saga ruled the night.
Stephenie Meyer’s vampire romance “Twilight” took a bite out of the People’s Choice Awards on Wednesday (January 6), receiving not only four statuettes, but quite a good-natured ribbing from host Queen Latifah.
Midway through the telecast, Latifah strolled through the audience, stopping at 17-year-old Taylor Lautner’s seat to ask for a photo. “You look so different with clothes on,” Latifah observed. George Lopez, a presenter and Lautner’s co-star in “The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl 3-D,” also got in on the act. “Dude, you’re my screen saver. I love you so much,” he joked. “I’m wearing ‘New Moon’ chones [Spanish for underwear].”
