The film series “The Twilight Saga” and television show “The Vampire Diaries” won 12 and seven awards, respectively, at the 2010 Teen Choice Awards, which airs tonight at 8 p.m. EDT on Fox. “Twilight” star Robert Pattinson alone won four awards, including one for a non-bloodsucking role: choice drama movie actor for “Remember Me.”
“It’s great to win something outside of ‘Twilight,’” said Pattinson.
Aside from the pale undead, other winners include Taylor Swift, “Wizards of Waverly Place” star Selena Gomez, and Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian. The awards are hosted by singer Katy Perry and the male stars of “Glee”: Chris Colfer, Kevin McHale, Cory Monteith and Mark Salling. Even the newly non-engaged Levi Johnston shows up.
The Associated Press gives a full rundown on what to expect at tonight’s show. Access Hollywood interviews the “Glee” cast on hosting the Teen Choice Awards. MTV News provides photos of the stars on the red carpet. Sandra Bullock and Betty White engage in a bizarre, non-vampiric tribal dance below:
