People’s Choice Awards a Disappointment for Vampire Fans

The People’s Choice Awards aired last night, and well, it was definitely a disappointment for all of us vampire fans out there. After seeing the list of winners I can’t help but think that this wonderful vampire craze is dying out. There were ten categories that featured vampire nominees, yet only few won. Sad sad.

Here’s the list of the categories with vampires (bold shows vampire nominee, a star * shows the actual winner).

So as you can see, Twilight won plenty of awards, but neither Robert Pattinson nor Taylor Lautner won the movie actor award, which came as a shock to MANY people. But the biggest shock was that The Vampire Diaries didn’t win a single category, not even the gorgeous Ian Somerhalder (Damon from The Vampire Diaries) won the TV actor award. True Blood also didn’t win any of its categories, which wasn’t too surprising since most fans (like me) were greatly disappointed by the last season. Either way, it’s a bit sad that vampires didn’t clean out this year.

What do you guys think? Do you think the reason for the losses is due to the vampire fad dying down or something else? Let us know in a comment below.

  3. Twilight beat out Inception. Let me say that again, Twilight beat out Inception???!… I can’t take this award show seriously. Ditto on Ian Somerhalder.

    1. The worst part is that all the winners were voted for. They had the voting up on their website. People have bad taste apparently.

  4. My picks begrudgingly in some cases, would be:
    Iron Man 2 (Favorite Movie)
    Robert Downey Jr. (Favorite Actor)
    Jennifer Aniston (Favorite Actress)
    Inception (Favorite Drama)
    Iron Man 2, Robert Downey Jr. & Don Cheadle (Onscreen Team)
    Emma Watson (Movie Star Under 25)
    The Vampire Diaries (Favorite TV Drama)
    Ian Somerhalder (Favorite TV Drama Actor)
    True Blood (Favorite Sci-Fi/Fantasy Show)
    True Blood (Favorite TV Obsession)

  5. that is totally messed! i can not believe that HOUSE beat out The VAMPIRE DIARIES for favourite tv drama! it is so insane! i think the vampires should have taken the awards again this year. another thing i cant believe is Kristen Stewart won the award for favourite movie actress, i honestly dont believe it. this years awards were so messed, they had to have been rigged at the very least to get all these different award winners. anyone else agree with me on this?

  6. The show was terrible to watch, they didnt have time to do half the categorys not even the best male actor in a tv drama having it annoused after the show was over online. It was a total waste of time considering the categorys i was watching it for wasnt even shown.
