Teen Choice Awards Comes To Hermosa Beach

The Teen Choice Awards are being staged in Hermosa Beach. The South Bay gets to enjoy a bit of Hollywood glitz with the likes of Taylor Swift, Robert Downey Jr., and Jessica Alba.

Why Hermosa Beach?

“It was intended to capture the Southern California beach lifestyle, which is the reason that the surfboards are the trophy,” said Bain, whose Bob Bain Productions has produced numerous shows, from the Critics’ Choice Awards to Trevor Noah specials. “It is fitting that finally after all these years we get an opportunity to stage this where I always felt it should be, which is outside on the beach in Southern California. But that requires a completely different logistical approach for all the obvious reasons.”
