Last year, more than 7.3 million people watched the awards. And by that, we mean both young and old alike.
This year, hosted by Will Smith, the 25th annual Kids’ Choice Awards kept to its true tradition – the show’s trademark green gunk. If you’ve been following them closely, you’d know that the awards’ real features aren’t the “Blimp”s itself but it’s when and on whom the slime will spill.
It’s like a baptism into kid-dome that can come at any moment: from a hidden bucket, dumped from the rafters or exploded from little orange blimps.
Halle Berry was the first to be covered with gunk:
Then the slime runneth over “Twilight” star Taylor Lautner:
“Team Green Jacob”, anyone?
Also, clearly, nobody wanted to leave “Glee” star Chris Colfer feeling “left out”:
And last but not least (can’t say we didn’t laugh out loud at this), Justin Bieber:

Green is such a good colour on you, Justin!
But of course, Justin Bieber didn’t have a go at it alone. The host himself wasn’t forgotten. Will Smith, who initially screamed, “No one is safe from the slime! You have to earn the slime! It’s an honour.” was utterly drenched in all that Nickelodeon goo too at the end of the show:
Nice!
