Los Angeles, July 11, 2007 – Fans determined the winners of the 15th annual ESPY Awards by voting online, but it was Hollywood royalty that came out to the Kodak Theatre to honor the athletes. Not every award winner was exactly an athlete – Will Ferrell running around in his underwear no doubt clinched the Best Sports Movie prize for Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. The NASCAR flick beat out football movie We Are Marshall – is that why shirtless wonder Matthew McConaughey skipped the ESPYs this year?

Actress Ashley Judd is a regular at the ESPYs – she and her Indy racecar driver husband Dario Franchitti are the poster couple for this annual lovefest where Hollywood meets the sporting world.

Presenters on the show included showbiz hotshots Samuel L. Jackson, Kate Walsh, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Jamie Lynn Sigler, plus pro athletes like Matt Leinart and Maria Sharapova. But there was plenty more star power with the likes of Mary J. Blige, Dane Cook, rapper T.I., Serena Williams and Carmen Electra on hand.

Basketball superstar LeBron James of the Cleveland Cavaliers and comedian Jimmy Kimmel co-hosted the awards show, which will air on Sunday, July 15 on ESPN.
