Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards 2018 Winners – the Complete List
Stranger Things won the Favorite TV show award, while Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle was Favorite Film at the Nickelodeon 2018 Kids’ Choice Awards, broadcast tonight live from the Forum in Inglewood, CA.
The awards, which cover movies, TV, music and online activities, are known for drenching certain celebrity guests in a waterfall of green slime, which it bountifully provided during the 90-minute show.
Hosted by wrestler-turned-actor John Cena, social media star and Dance Moms alum JoJo Siwa performed a medley of hits, including Boomerang, which has garnered over 500 million views on YouTube. The band N.E.R.D. also performed their hit, Lemon, with a crew of kid dancers on top of a cafeteria table.
Slime victims included Heidi Klum and Mel B getting slime-soaked on a swing set while presenting an award; to Favorite Funny YouTube Creator winner Liza Koshy getting a surprise double sliming at the podium and backstage; to Henry Danger star Jace Norman pranking Shawn Mendes with buckets of green goo after winning Favorite Male Artist; and Cena closing the show with an epic finale sliming of the audience after receiving the ultimate dousing himself.
This year’s show gave kids the opportunity to choose what happens live during the show by casting votes to determine the outcome of multiple stunts. These included Black-ish star Marsai Martin wearing “Guac Socks” in a game of “Eat It or Wear It,” and social media stars Alex Wassabi and LaurDIY taking on the “Fear Box” challenge.
