Scarlett Johansson Dedicates People’s Choice Award to Empowered Women.

SCARLETT JOHANSSON ACCEPTS A PEOPLE’S CHOICE AWARD

Scarlett Johansson led the way as the stars came out for the People’s Choice Awards.

The actress won female movie star of 2021 for Black Widow, which also won movie of the year at the awards held in Santa Monica to celebrate the best in television, movie and music talent.

She said: “When I first started my journey with Marvel, I didn’t know whether or not audiences would like my portrayal of this beloved character. So I really owe this all to you guys.

“I also have to mention the badass women that I worked with on this film: our filmmaker Cate Shortland, my amazing co-stars Florence Pugh and Rachel Weisz and our producer Victoria Alonso.”

Halle Berry won people’s icon while Dwayne Johnson took home people’s champion and Christina Aguilera, who performed at the ceremony, was handed the music icon.

Johnson gave the award to a surprised Make-a-Wish recipient in the audience.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation is a charity granting the wishes of children living with life-threatening illnesses.

“I met her earlier. I told her how inspired I was by her story. She is a survivor,” Johnson said.

Star-studded red carpet attendees included Paris Jackson, Khloe and Kim Kardashian and Laverne Cox.

Kim also won the Fashion Icon Award and thanked her estranged husband Kanye West during her speech.

She said: “To be receiving this award from a fashion icon herself, Tracee (Ellis Ross), I am so honored. I am honestly so humbled to be here. I mean, I started off as a closet organizer and a stylist. So the fact that I am winning a Fashion Icon Award, it’s like a pinch-me moment. Thank you to Kanye for really introducing me to the fashion world.”

Ellen DeGeneres won an award for the final season of her daytime talk show The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
