Alex Warren says he expects slime to be a major feature of the 2026 Kids’ Choice Awards, where he will make his debut as host. He grew up watching the ceremony with his siblings and says hosting it lets him revisit a childhood highlight while showing a more exuberant side of himself.

Warren is also nominated for favourite music collaboration for “Bloodline”, with Jelly Roll. Performers include Jamie Miller, Ashe and Sofi Tukker, while Chris Pratt will receive the King of Comedy Award; Warren says he would be shocked if the ceremony did not set a slime record.
