"The Rock" to host Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Awards 2009




Movie star and 2008 Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Awards nominee Dwayne Johnson (The Game Plan), will host Nickelodeon's 22nd Annual Kids' Choice Awards, Saturday, March 28 (8-9:30 p.m. ET/PT). That's when kids will honor their favorites from the worlds of film, music, sports and television in a star-studded live telecast (tape delayed for West Coast) from UCLA's Pauley Pavilion. Torrential slime is forecast for the no-holds-barred kudo/mess-fest on the night kids rule and Hollywood royalty revels with them.
"We customarily break records at Kids' Choice, and in 2009, the show is certain to be the biggest, loudest and messiest yet. For the first time Dwayne Johnson will host the ceremony, and we are very excited for him to make his mark with his big presence and kid-friendly style," said Marjorie Cohn, Executive Vice President, Development and Original Programming, Nickelodeon, and an Executive Producer for the Awards show. "Dwayne is a pop culture icon and a Kids' Choice veteran who has been a presenter and a nominee for Favorite Male Movie Star. Our audience loves him."
Be sure to look out for his apperance in Disney's feature Race to Witch Mountain. This year too, he'll headline as a winged dentist in 20th Century Fox's comedy The Tooth Fairy and voice an astronaut stranded on Planet 51 in New Line Cinema's first 3-D CG-animated feature.
