The People’s Choice Awards is an awards show wherein fans vote for the nominees, categories and the winners. It’s also the first awards show of the year, which means a number of the winners will be taking the stage for the first of many times out between now and the end of the season. 

Jane the Virgin has been nominated for Best Actress in a TV Series and Best TV Series for the Golden Globes Awards, putting the network into big races in that show for the first time.
