2024 Kids’ Choice Awards: Unexpected Twists and Surprises

Despite the shocking assassination attempt on former President Trump, the 2024 Kids’ Choice Awards continued as scheduled on Saturday, July 13, at 8 p.m. ET without any mention of the incident. Typically, awards shows begin with a moment of reflection during distressing news events, but such a tone would have been incongruous for a show centered around fun and excitement.

The young audience likely wouldn’t have grasped the significance of the event, as the show is designed to engage kids with entertaining elements like epic slimings. The participation of many popular young stars, including The Kid Laroi who performed a three-song medley, added to the show’s appeal. For many young viewers, this event serves as an introduction to the world of award shows, an enjoyable gateway experience.

As expected, many of the winners were predictable. Barbie won favorite movie, Taylor Swift took home awards for favorite female artist, favorite global music star, and favorite ticket of the year for The Eras Tour. Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso” winning favorite viral song was also anticipated. Nonetheless, the show’s results included a few surprises for viewers to explore.
