Katy Perry won five prizes at the People's Choice Awards last night (11.01.12).

The 'Firework' hitmaker - who cancelled her planned appearance at the ceremony in the wake of her split from husband Russell Brand - was the star of the spectacle at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles as she picked up gongs for Best Music Artist, Favourite Tour Headliner, Favourite Song for 'E.T.', Favourite Tour Headliner and Favourite TV Guest star for her stint in 'How I Met Your Mother'.

'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2' took home four accolades, including Best Movie, but none of the cast of the last installment of the wizard movie franchise made the trip to the US meaning their achievements were not announced in the two-hour televised ceremony, which was hosted by 'The Big Bang Theory' actress Kaley Cuoco.

Emma Stone was stunned to receive a standing ovation from the crowd as she was announced as the Best Movie Actress.

The 'Crazy Stupid Love' star - who was also awarded Best Comedic Movie Actress - told the audience: "I moved to LA eight years ago this week with my mum, who's right there. It is so insane to be standing up here right now."

Other winners at the spectacle included Johnny Depp, who won Best Movie Actor, Lea Michele, who took home the statuette for Best TV Comedy Actress and Bruno Mars, who was named Favourite Male Artist.

Robert Pattinson was on hand to accept the prize for Favourite Drama Movie for his film 'Water For Elephants' and showed off a new cropped hairstyle.

Guests included Kelly Osbourne and her mother Sharon, Miley Cyrus and her boyfriend Liam Hemsworth and Adam Sandler.
