It was a huge night for Katy Perry at the People's Choice Awards in Los Angeles on Wednesday - even though the pop star's marriage break-up prevented her from attending.

The ‘I Kissed a Girl’ star pulled out of the event earlier this week via a tweet but it was still very much her night as she picked up five awards, including one for her guest spot on TV comedy How I Met Your Mother.

Perry also claimed trophies for Favourite Female Artist, Favourite Song of the Year (‘E.T.’), Favourite Music Video (‘Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F)’) and Favourite Tour Headliner.

It was also a great evening for the cast of the final Harry Potter movie, The Deathly Hallows: Part 2 - the film picked up awards for Favourite Movie, Favourite Action Movie, Favourite Book Adaptation and Favourite Movie Ensemble Cast.

TV hit How I Met Your Mother was a triple winner at the Nokia Theater ceremony - as well as Perry's guest role prize, the show landed the night's Favourite Network TV Comedy honour and Neil Patrick Harris took home the Favourite TV Comedy Actor award.

Johnny Depp and Emma Stone were among the double winners - he was named Favourite Movie Actor and Favourite Animated Voice for his role in Rango, while she picked up the Favourite Movie Actress and Favourite Comedic Movie Actress awards.

Meanwhile, Morgan Freeman beat out Harrison Ford, George Clooney, Tom Hanks, Harrison Ford and Robert De Niro to be named the People's Choice Awards' first Movie Icon and Betty White celebrated her 90th birthday a week early - she was given a standing ovation as she accepted the Favourite Cable TV Comedy award for her sitcom Hot in Cleveland.
