People at E! choose to pick up The People’s Choice Awards
According to Deadline, CBS will no longer be home to The People’s Choice Awards, as the E! network has now picked up the exclusive broadcast and streaming rights to the award show. Also, E! will take over the ceremony’s social and voting platforms, so the people will have to make their choices through the new network’s systems as well. In a statement, E! said that the awards are a “natural extension” of the network’s own pop culture and celebrity focus, and it’s “excited to evolve and supercharge this fan-centered event for the next generation in a way that only E! can.”
