The 40th Annual People's Choice Awards ended its 2014 show with Sandra coming out on top with three big awards to her name by the end of the night.
Bullock was honored awards for favorite comedic movie actress, favorite movie actress and also favorite movie duo with George Clooney, her "Gravity" co-star. On top of her three major wins, the actress' movies "Gravity" and "The Heat" were also awarded as favorite dramatic movie and favorite comedic movie, respectively.
Kaley Cuoco, former People's Choice Awards host and "The Big Bang Theory" star, scored for herself the favorite comedic TV actress award. She came to the show with Ryan Sweeting, her newly wedded husband, and mentioned him especially in her acceptance speech.
"This is the second best thing that happened to me all year. The first was marrying you! I love you, baby!" the actress said in her acceptance speech, referring to the award and Sweeting.
Ellen Degeneres, who took home the award for favorite daytime talk show host that night, sparked the most laughs from the audience as well. Degeneres, who will be hosting this year's Academy Awards, shared in her speech that her talk show is intended for everyone, regardless of race, gender or sexual orientation. The comedian added jokingly that she recently shared a conversation with "an African-American woman who "works 80 hours to get by, and she looks forward to coming home every single night and watching me. And that woman's name is Oprah Winfrey."
Singers Katy Perry and Justin Timberlake each grabbed a handful of wins in the music categories. Timberlake, who's "20/20 Experience" album won the award for favorite album, specially thanked wife Jessica Biel in his speech "for teaching me patience and the little things, like just putting the dishes in the dishwasher. It goes a long way. Fellas, you're welcome."
People's Choice Awards 2014 briefly turned from laughs to emotional tears when Jennifer Hudson was given the award for favorite humanitarian for creating an organization focusing on children that's named after the singer's slain nephew, "Julian D. King Gift Foundation."
Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles and Misha Collins won the award for favorite TV bromance as Sam, Dean and Castiel of "Supernatural" while Sarah Michelle Gellar took home the trophy for favorite actress in new series.
