Britney Spears Makes a Rare Award-Show Appearance

Britney Spears took a breather from her Las Vegas show, Piece of Me, to attend the People's Choice Awards in LA on Wednesday night. She looked gorgeous in a lace minidress and nude heels and was all smiles from her front-row seat next to boyfriend David Lucado. Britney has been busy hitting the stage at Planet Hollywood's Axis theater since Dec. 27. Her debut performance proved to be a successful, star-studded event, bringing out fans like Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, and Katy Perry. Britney also celebrated New Year's Eve in Sin City with a special night out alongside her crew and tour dancers.

While Britney was up for three big awards tonight, there's one category in particular that had us especially psyched. She took home the favorite pop artist award (her first-ever PCA!) and beat out Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, and ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake. Sadly, we didn't see a run-in between the '90s pop power couple, but she did meet up backstage with Heidi Klum and Arrow star Stephen Amell.
