iCarly’s Miranda Cosgrove and NFL superstar Rob Gronkowski are set to host our favorite awards show of the year: the KCAs! The annual event will be held live on April 9 in Santa Monica, California. “Nickelodeon has always been my family and to co-host this iconic show alongside Gronk will be a blast,” said Miranda.
Watch their official announcement!
Some of our faves (like Olivia Rodrigo and That Girl Lay Lay) were nominated for the very first time, while BTS is poised to break a record they set last year! In 2021, the members won three orange blimps, including Best Music Group, which earned them the Guinness World Record for most Kids Choice Awards won by a music group!
