Gomez outshines boyfriend Bieber at teen awards

SELENA Gomez has scooped five wins at the Teen Choice Awards, one more than her boyfriend Justin Bieber.

The star of Wizards Of Waverly Place was selected as choice TV actress, female hottie and music group with her band The Scene. Gomez and her ensemble were also awarded the choice single trophy for Who Says and love song for Love You Like A Love Song, which the 19-year-old actress-singer performed at the freewheeling fan-favourite ceremony in Los Angeles.

“This is for all of you guys,” Gomez told the screeching crowd. “This isn’t mine.”

Bieber, Gomez’s 17-year-old boyfriend, picked up four surfboard-shaped trophies as choice male music artist, male hottie, twit and TV villain for his CSI guest starring role.

Other multiple winners included Glee, The Vampire Diaries, The Twilight Saga, Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Swift.

“I feel like it’s been a long time since I was a teenager, like, two years,” Swift joked.

Swift tied with Gomez, scooping five awards: choice female music artist, country female artist, female red carpet fashion icon, country single for Mean and break-up song for Back To December. The 21-year-old was also honoured with the Ultimate Choice Award, the show’s version of a lifetime achievement award.

The Big Bang Theory leading lady Kaley Cuoco hosted the 13th annual extravaganza at Universal Studios Hollywood’s Gibson Amphitheatre.

There were moments of seriousness. Sean Kingston made his first live TV appearance since recovering from injuries suffered after crashing a boat into a Miami Beach bridge in May.

The ceremony ended with a tribute to the Harry Potter film franchise.

The final two instalments won such categories as choice sci-fi/fantasy movie, liplock, villain for Tom Felton and summer movie star for both Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe, who accepted his surfboard via satellite from New York.
