In response to winning the “Choice Summer Song” category, they stated, “It’s our first surfboard! We’re so excited thank you guys so much for anyone who voted and anyone who has been supportive of us through this whole process. This is amazing.

Choice Movie Actress: Action—Shailene Woodley, The Divergent Series: Insurgent
Alongside Jennifer Lawrence who also won for Choice Movie Actress: Sci-Fi/Fantasy, Shailene proves to be a fierce and powerful actress on the prowl in this sequel to the Divergent Series. Standing for female empowerment, style, and class, Shailene serves as the perfect role for heroine Tris, starring alongside Theo James who plays Four as they fight against Jeanine (played by Kate Winslet) and the Erudite class who is taking over the city in this post-apocalyptic themed movie which hit theaters on March 20, 2015. Shailene began modeling in commercials at the mere age of four and then began fulfilling acting roles in Replacing Dad, The District, the O.C., Crossing Jordan, The Secret Life of the American Teenager, The Descendants, and more.
Choice Movie: Villain—Bella Thorne, The Duff
It’s surprising that this sweetheart could win for best villain, proving that she can be a great, convincing actress! Accompanied by her boyfriend Gregg Sulkin, Bella Thorne graciously accepted the award for her role as mean-girl Madison Morgan who torments Bianca Piper (played by Mae Whitman) through societal standards of beauty, romantic compatibility, and friendships. Bella has an extensive resume spanning over forty appearances in film and television, including her breakthrough on Disney Channel’s Shake It Up in addition to philanthropy work, partnership with Neutrogena, music production, and many more awards.
The 2015 Teen Choice Awards proved to be a success with some of the hottest stars on the web, film, and television winning in major categories. Here are just a few of the accomplished actresses, music artists, and YouTube sensations that got to take home the highly coveted surfboard!
