The People’s Choice Awards 2016 aired live last night from Los Angeles.
As its banner title relays, the show is notable for being voted for entirely by the public, a fact which arguably helps gauge who is most “popular” at this point in time.
Spanning a wide variety of categories, the full list of music winners awaits below.
With the likes of Beyonce, Nicki Minaj, and Janet Jackson up for honors, did your “fave” nab an award?

Peoples choice? Or White kids in America’s Choice?
The nominees and winners are QUESTIONABLE
Well go vote then and stop complaining
Are you illiterate?? Why would I vote when the nominees themselves are QUESTIONABLE to me.
Wherever you found your confidence to talk at me is where you can find the sense to know better boo
After looking at the categories list of nominees and Winners. I’m giving a heavy side eye to some of the nomination competitors but I’m happy that Johnny Depp won for best dramatic actor.
*white* people’s choice awards. Politics as usual.
LOL The industry has really got terrible at these awards. Grammys are now the only semi-decent ones. Only semi.
