Kid's Choice Awards Funnn Timeee. :p
If you were without a television, computer, or any type of technological device last night, there is a pretty good chance you missed the KCA's. So, here's a mild recap:
The one person on everyone's "to see" list was the one and only Smiley Miley Cyrus. Shocker. She arrived with her mom at her hip (everyone was looking for Mandy..including me) wearing a black and silver dress with reddish-pink heels. No surprise that she won "Favorite Singer" and "Favorite TV Actress". The biggest shocker, though, was Hannah Montana getting passed up for "Favorite TV Show" for Drake and Josh. That's bunk. Okay, Drake and Josh is a pretty good show, mainly due to Josh Peck and the guy that play Crazy Steve, but, honestly, it doesn't hold a torch to the much more popular Hannah Montana. =/
The Jonas Brothers were another "to see" moment. No surprise that they won "Favorite Band" as opposed to Boys Like Girls, Fall Out Boy, and Linkin Park. Please remember the majority of the voting population was 16 years old and under...oh, and bloggers like Michael Buckley of "What the Buck?". The Jonas Brothers, who are the only people that can dress so uncoordinatedly that they match, gave a very short "thank you" speech. Well, Nick usually seems out-of-it most of the time anyway. Could it have been because both Joe and Nick's ex-girlfriends were sitting in the audience and felt slightly uncomfortable? I saw the look Miley slipped Nick as she unenthusiastically clapped, before she feigned talking to her mom.
Shocker alert: Nick's ex Miley was the only winner to thank God in her speech. Shame on you, Jonas Brothers. You're the sons of a pastor. Don't get big-headed.
The most of the show was mediocore. Slime here. Slime there. Slime on Harrison Ford. The Naked Brothers Band performed. I changed the channel. Can you tell I'm not a fan?
Miley's performance had to have been an aquired taste. People who use their ears can clearly tell she was not lip-synching (thank goodness), but her timing was a half a second off, most likely due to her running around the stage in her Grease inspired attire. Fear the mom-jeans-esque unitard. I spy a faux beauty mark! I admit I was looking for Mandy during Miley's performance of G. N. O., and found her! She had on a red sweater and 50's era glasses. Now, all we have to do is sit and wait for the next youtube video of the Miley and Mandy show! :]
Orlando Bloom's appearances was definitely unexpected. He came out for the finale to help Jack Black. Niceee. :] I would have loved to have been in that audience.
I did have a few concerns though:
There must have been some awkwardness tension in the arena. The Jonas/Cyrus/Michalka triangle. And am I the only one that noticed the Rihanna, Shia LaBeouf, and Chris Brown were there...at the same time? Or that the before mentioned half of Aly and
AJ and rumored romance Ryan Sheckler were there? And that tons of Disney stars are network jumping? That new dance show "Dance on Sunset" featured two dancers who were background dancers in High School Musical 2: Shane and Hefa. Plus, tons of Disney stars attended the show. Brenda Song and Phil Lewis from the Suite Life, Emily Osment, Mitchel Musso, Miley, and Mosies Arias...and none of them were photographed together. Hmmm... And when Alvin and the Chipmunks won, why didn't Jesse McCartney go up with Jason Lee? He was there. I saw him on the orange carpet!
So, does it top 2007's show? Some moments perhaps. You be the judge.
.selah.
p.s. i don't hate Miley or the Jonas Brothers. on the contrary, i like them very much. these are mere observations and my thoughts about last night's events. :]
