People's Choice Award Recap
Last night, The People's Choice Awards aired on E! in an all new, digital format! The awards show, which is unique for having all winners chosen by a fan vote, had to reimagine the staging of the show in order to follow pandemic protocols.
<p><a href="https://celebritypage.com/search/?q=Demi+Lovato" target="_blank">Demi Lovato</a> served looks while also serving as host for the night! One of the show's highlights was Lovato's grand entrance to the stage which was spaced out with a digital audience to accommodate for social distancing.</p><p>Stars who were able to attend and announce at the event were seated with masks until it was their turn to walk the runway to the empty stage.</p>
Watch Demi Lovato make her entrance:

But, this is the only awards show decided entirely by the fans. So every winner was chosen by you. Oh and, um, don't worry. We made sure to count everyone in Pennsylvania's vote first."</blockquote><p>She went on to joke about her experience <a href="https://celebritypage.com/c-engagement-heartbreak-and-new-music" target="_blank">getting engaged</a> and using Postmates in quarantine before getting serious:</p><blockquote>"Tonight, our presenters and winners will be here live on stage. I'm so excited to be here tonight too. In all seriousness, during all of these challenging times we found ways to stay connected and get each other through it. And that's what tonight is all about. To celebrate the people, the music, the shows, and the films that helped us get through 2020. And tonight, it's all about the people!"</blockquote><p>Hosting the show was an exciting gig for Lovato who has been avoiding the tabloids following the end of the engagement to her ex fiancé. People watching the show at home noticed the singer was GLOWING.</p><p>As explained by the hostess, all the winners for the night were chosen by the people.</p><p>Here's some of the top award winners:</p>BTS took home three awards, making them the most awarded of the night:
