Kenan Thompson, actor, comedian and Saturday Night Live legend, is all set to take the kids on a fun slimy ride as the host of Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards 2021. With Kenan at the helm, kids and parents worldwide literally be a part of this year’s show like never before.
The six prominent African stars that have been nominated to represent Africa in the Favourite African Star category are Miss Universe 2019 Zozibini Tunzi (South Africa), actress Thuso Mbedu (South Africa), two time nominee, philanthropist and Springbok Rugby Captain Siya Kolisi (South Africa), Liverpool Football Club soccer star Mo Salah (Egypt), Sadio Mane, Liverpool midfielder (Senegal) and Shebaah Karungi, leading dancer (Uganda).
For the first time ever, Nickelodeon’s Orange Blimp will leave the KCA venue and take fans on a wild ride around the world and beyond. Filled with slime and messy stunts, viewers will travel to outer space, Bikini Bottom and right into celebrities’ home using XR technology.
The 2021 show will also feature live and interactive fan walls that bring celebrities and families at home to main stage, second screen live voting all night where fans take control and a KCA award presented by one lucky family chosen during the show.
