This year, for the first time ever, the nominees were celebrated with an official Crest + Scope People's Choice Nomination Announcement Party, benefiting Operation Smile. After the nomination announcements were made, a private party welcoming past, present and future People's Choice Awards nominees took place to celebrate the award that gives fans the chance to choose who will smile in the spotlight.

Potential nominees for THE 34TH ANNUAL PEOPLE'S CHOICE AWARDS were compiled with the help of Knowledge Networks, a leading market research company along with members of the People's Choice Community.  Knowledge Networks used its consumer research resources, which include the only projectable, web-based, nationally representative panel to identify a pop culture-involved sample of men and women ages 18-49.  For each category, the respondents were provided with a set of candidates determined by national ratings averages, box-office grosses and music sales.  The respondents then chose their favorites in Television, Movies and Music.  They also had the option to write in their favorites where not included among the provided candidates. Their top three selections in each category became the final nominees.
