Spoiler warning: winners named below
Stars gathered from all networks at the 22nd Annual Kids' Choice Awards in Los Angeles, where kids get to pick the winners. Some of the categories included Favorite Movie (High School Musical 3), Favorite Actress (Selena Gomez), and Favorite Singer (Miley Cyrus). We saw the Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus, Zac Efron and others on the Orange Carpet. Teen idols were present and adult stars brought their kids. It was definitely an red orange carpet to remember.
Like many celebrities, Miley Cyrus said with fingers crossed, “I hope I don't get slimed” before hurrying off to the awards show. Miley was brought to tears when she won Favorite Singer.
Skateboarder Tony Hawk, also present, has been slimed before. “They asked if I would do a skateboard stunt [A few years ago]. By the way, we want you to land in slime.” He said he'd be happy to do it again.
Sisters Chelsea Tavares (Just Jordan) and Kylee Russell (Jump in!) were some of the first down the carpet. They weren't sure who would win a coveted orange blimp as “they change it up every year” and weren't quick to predict anyone. Chelsea hoped that host “The Rock” (Dwayne Johnson) got slimed, “Just 'cause.”
Andrea Lewis appeared rocking pink tights. The 22nd annual is her first Kids' Choice Awards. She's known for her role as Hazel on Degrassi and her most recent role in Spectacular. She said it was “so much fun [going from Degrassi to Spectacular]. The whole time we were filming Spectacular, we were singing and dancing.”
Like the sisters, Andrea had no idea who would win a blimp. She added, “That's the fun of these awards shows. You can't predict it. Everything is unexpected.” Andrea agreed that the Rock should get slimed.
When asked if she would let someone slime her, she gasped, “I wouldn't want to, because I would be a mess, but I would want to at the same time just to say I've been slimed.”
A fellow Degrassi alumni, Lauren Collins, was seen at the event (walking with Miriam McDonald and Nina Dobrev). She's going to be a regular on the second season of The Best Years, premiering this Friday on The-N, as the character Alicia. Lauren said, “She's quite the character. Very wild.” The show is one of my favorite shows: I'm obsessed with it. But don't worry Degrassi fans, she'll make an appearance on Degrassi too this summer.
