Taylor Swift and actress/singer Selena Gomez were big winners at the Teen Choice awards on Sunday. Taylor scooped up six surfboard trophies including one for Ultimate Teen Choice.
Ms. Swift was named the favorite female artist, country singer and red carpet fashion icon. She also scored with best country single for her song "Mean" and choice breakup song "Back to December."
While accepting her Ultimate Teen Choice surfboard onstage, 21 year-old Swift thanked her fans and joked that "it's been a long time since I was a teenager, like two years."
Selena Gomez performed her hit single "I Love You Like a Love Song" with her band The Scene, and won choice TV actress in a drama for her role in "Wizards of Waverly Place." She was also named choice "hottie," and The Scene scored the award for top band and for single of the year with their song "Who Says."
Selena's boyfriend, Justin Bieber, scooped up surfboards for being the top "hottie" as well as the choice "twit." Bieber was named top male artist and earned an acting award for his recent work on television.
A special "Inspire" trophy went to Demi Lovato, the 18-year-old singer and actress who late last year pulled out of a concert tour to enter rehab for abuse issues.
Since then, Lovato has talked openly about her problems with eating disorders and cutting herself that she linked to being bullied at school when she was younger. And she started a foundation called Love Is Louder Than the Pressure to be Perfect to help kids combat peer pressure.
Other top Teen Choice honors went to "Twilight" actor Robert Pattinson, who was named choice vampire for his role in the popular romance movies. He was also named best movie actor in a drama.
Other winners included Cameron Diaz, Ashton Kutcher, Blake Lively and the cast of "Glee."
