Hollywood, CA- At last night's Teen Choice Awards, Step Up 2: The Streets took home the award for best movie drama, beating other nominees The Diving Bell and Butterfly , There Will Be Blood , and the Romanian abortion drama, 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days . The award for Best Chick Flick went to the Katherine Heigl comedy 27 Dresses , narrowly beating the Julie Christie Alzheimer's film Away From Her .
The 10th Annual Teen Choice Awards were co-hosted by Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus and American humorist Garrison Keillor. The highlight
of Fox's broadcast was Cyrus grooving with friend Mandy Jiroux and
their dance team M&M Cru as part of a dance-off with Adam Sevani
and Jon Chu's dance troupe ACDC. The dance-off was followed by a
90-minute modern dance competition between two troupes representing the
choreography of Martha Graham and Doris Humphrey respectively.
In the television categories, the CW soap Gossip Girl scored six awards, shutting out PBS's 4 1/2 hour Frontline documentary Bush's War .
"The
Teen Choice Awards carries on a tradition of excellence, honoring the
best in motion pictures, music and television," said Cyrus. "No film
has ever spoken to the American youth like Step Up 2: The Streets .
As an allegory for modern race relations and the age-old American class
struggle, it towers over the other nominees as this year's cinematic
masterpiece."
Special honors at last night's ceremony included a Lifetime Achievement Award given to High School Musical star Zac Efron and a tribute to deceased Swedish director Ingmar Bergman.

This is fucking unbelieveable. I’ve never seen Step Up, and I hope to god I never do. I saw a few minutes of 27 Dresses at school, and it was shit. No, it was worse than s... more >
I never watch this stuff. I dont get how a couple of people breakdancing in the streets how it gets turned into a movie and then suddenly every teen can relate to it. Yeah like they grew up in the hard core streets . . . psshh! please.I’m not saying that I did but when that movie came out every kid in my school thought they were breakdancers and I live in Ut... more >
It’s funny that you would choose that screen shot, because that scene in particular really spoke to me, and changed my life for the better.
Not every day can be sunny. The rain will surely come. You just have to just let it wash over you like a sexy shower (not to be confused with a golden shower) and dance through it.
I feel as if I were there! Which I was trying to avoid.
