Cynopsis: Kids! Good morning. It’s Monday, March 29, 2010, and this is your first early morning Kids briefing. Screaming kids, stars, musical performances, sliming, special guests, 115 million votes (cast February 25-March 27), and more slime, were the focus of Nickelodeon’s 23rd Annual Kids’ Choice Awards, which aired live on Saturday (8-9:30p) from LA with Kevin James as host. James opened the show with a little help from his pal comedian Adam Sandler, dressed as an angel and suspended from above the stage, as they sang “Get Slimed Tonight (an adaptation of KC and the Sunshine Band’s song Get Down Tonight), and of course, lots of slime. It was a double winning evening for The Twilight Saga: New Moon, though not as Best Movie – that honor went to Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel – with Taylor Lautner winning as Favorite Movie Actor as Jake in New Moon and Lautner and Kristen Stewart taking home an orange blimp as Cutest Couple as Jake and Bella. As we told you previously, First Lady Michelle Obama was given the network’s first Big Help Award for her initiative, Let’s Move! The evening also featured two new movie spots from Paramount for its upcoming movies Iron Man 2 (May 7) and The Last Airbender (July 2). Presenting sponsors of 2010 Kids’ Choice Awards are Burger King, General Mills and Hasbro. Associate sponsors are Kmart, Kraft, Nintendo, Procter & Gamble and Skechers. Other kid favorites winners from the evening include: Movies
