2024 People’s Choice Awards announce nominees, ‘Barbie’ co-star Simu Liu as host
Written by ABC Audio ALL RIGHTS RESERVED on January 11, 2024
Barbie, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and Fast X are among the Movie of the Year nominees for this year’s People’s Choice Awards.
On the TV side, binge-worthy and award-winning hits like Netflix’s Beef and FX’s Hulu hit The Bear made the cut among older favorites like Grey’s Anatomy and Law & Order: SVU.
Voting is now open in each of the 45 categories representing movies, television, music and pop culture.
Barbie star — and nominee — Simu Liu will be hosting the show this year, airing live on Sunday, February 18, at 8 p.m. ET on NBC, Peacock and E! from The Barker Hangar in Santa Monica.
In a statement, Liu — a previous People’s Choice winner for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings — said he’s “so grateful to have been asked to step up to the hosting plate,” adding, “It’s exciting to celebrate this incredible year in pop culture, and to do so with the incredible fans that make what we do possible.”
