Which celebrities will be presenting at the 26th Annual Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards?
With the 36th Annual Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards less than a week away, the official list of hosts, presenters, and celebrity appearances has been announced. The ceremony will take place on Saturday, March 4, and will be held at the Microsoft Theatre in Los Angeles.
The hosts
The Kids’ Choice Awards will have two official hosts, Charli D’Amelio and Nate Burleson.
D’Amelio is a social media personality who is mostly known for the dance videos she routinely posts to TikTok. She also was a competitive dancer for 10 years before she went viral on TikTok.
She was famously “slimed” at the 2021 Kids’ Choice Awards, and won two awards the following year for Favorite Female Creator and Favorite Social Music Star.
Nate Burleson is a Canadian-born television host and American football commentator. He formerly played college and professional football as a wide receiver. He’s worked for Nickelodeon before as a commentator for the NFL Wild Card game, and as the host for the weekly highlights shows ‘NFL Slimetime.’
Celebrity appearances
According to The Futon Critic, this year’s annual Kids’ Choice Awards will also include numerous celebrity appearances. The celebrities include Awkwafina, Lil Baby, Halle Bailey, Pete Davidson, Melissa McCarthy, MrBeast, Chris Pine, Anthony Ramos, Michelle Rodriguez, Seth Rogen, That Girl Lay Lay, and possibly more unannounced names.
The performers
There have been two announced performers for the upcoming award show so far.
Bebe Rexha will be performing her song “I’m Good (Blue).” The song is a remix of Eiffel 65′s song “Blue (Da Ba Dee)” by David Guetta with vocals from Rexha, which has since gone viral on TikTok.
In a statement for Nickelodeon, Rexha said: “I’ve always loved the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards! I can’t wait to perform and see who gets slimed.”
Along with Rexha, Young Dylan will be performing his song “I Just Wanna.” Young Dylan is a 13-year-old actor and rapper who stars in Tyler Perry’s ‘Young Dylan’, a comedy series with three seasons so far. The Nickelodeon show is about Young Dylan, an aspiring Hip-Hop artist who is sent to live with his affluent aunt and uncle.
The official music video for ‘I Just Wanna’ will also be released a day before the award show on Friday, March 3.
How to vote
Nominations for the Awards are still open and voting will not close until the night of the ceremony. Fans can vote on the Nick.com website, several times a day ahead of the ceremony.
