Finishing up with the "Orange Carpet" for the Kids' Choice Awards at Pauley Pavilion, UCLA campus

Jonas Brothers performing at the Kids' Choice Awards 2009

The 22nd Annual Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards was a big awards show held on March 28, 2009. It took place at Pauley Pavilion in Los Angeles. The famous actor and former wrestler Dwayne Johnson hosted the event.

Kids from all over the world voted for their favorite movies, TV shows, music, and sports stars. A record-breaking 91.1 million votes were cast online! The show was watched by 7.7 million people in the United States. It was also broadcast to over 228 million homes around the world.

One of the most exciting parts of the show was when the Jonas Brothers performed. They even changed the words to their song "Lovebug" to "catch this slime time again." By the end of the night, they were called the "slime gods" because they got slimed! This was also the last time the Nickelodeon Orange Blimp was part of the Kids' Choice Awards logo for several years.

Before the main show, Lily Collins, Pick Boy, and JJ hosted the "orange carpet." They interviewed celebrities and Miranda Cosgrove performed live outside the arena.
