The People have chosen. The People’s Choice Awards, a conveniently packaged snow globe of pop culture popularity contests, anointed this year’s class of Most Special Snowflakes. A mash-up awards show if ever there was one, the annual event pays tribute to a large swath of entertainment’s elite class of thoroughbreds, party crashers, and prodigies.

Mouse-wielding opinionators around the globe have selected their favorite movie stars (Johnny Depp , Sandra Bullock, Hugh Jackman, Jim Carrey), music acts (Keith Urban, Taylor Swift, Mariah Carey, Eninem), TV stars (Steve Carell, Hugh Laurie, Alyson Hannigan, Katherine Heigl), TV shows (Glee, The Vampire Diaries, House, American Idol), and movies (Twilight, Up, Inglorious Basterds, The Proposal). This year’s breakout winners were Lady Gaga (music artist), Miley Cyrus (movie actress), and Taylor Lautner (movie actor).

To prove that the People’s Choice people are always thinking of ways to expand and refine their brand, in 2010 we have a favorite animal show — Dog Whisperer, a top TV obsession -True Blood, and a preferred Web celeb-Ashton Kutcher. The Car-Less Dude’s Twitter moment with CNN was cool and all (I guess), but fellow nom Andy Samberg cut some viral promos for the 2009 MTV Movie Awards that live on as YouTube classics.

People’s Choice clunkers? The Proposal beat out The Hangover for fave comedy movie. Think about that for a second. The movie where the guy from The Daily Show wakes up from a bachelor party in Vegas missing his tooth lost to a movie about a book editor who almost gets deported to Canada.

Happy awards season, America. Get ready to bask vicariously in all the glitz, glamour, and star power the season has to offer.
