People's Choice Awards

The People's Choice Awards, held annually in January, is one of the few awards shows to be based on popularity. It is also the only awards show that honors every entertainment category (movies, music and television).

The awards are based upon annual results from Gallup polls. Each year, Gallup takes a survey of different categories for favorite actor, actress, movie, artist, television program or group. The scope is unlimited—the public can choose whomever or whatever it likes. The results of the annual survey are announced in the form of the People's Choice Awards.

What is unique about the People's Choice Awards is that every year there is at least one tie in any given category (on occasion, the voting in a select category is so close that Gallup declares a tie in that area). For instance, in 2003, both Spider-Man and ' tied for Favorite Motion Picture.
