It was a case of tossing aside network alignments yesterday on the Orange Carpet at the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards 2008.
As Dean Geyer and Toni Pearen showed, there were no network rivalries before the cameras or the screaming fans at the annual awards show.
At Hi-Sense Arena yesterday in Melbourne, the carpet was a bit like one of those cattle runs, with the stars shepherded by publicists in between fans and media. It was a delicate act trying to please everybody.
Out for the day were Bindi Irwin & minders, Australian Idol finalists (the remaining ones anyway), Mike Goldman & Bree Amer, Rebel Wilson & Lulu McClatchy, Rove, Natalie Bassingthwaighte, Ricki-Lee, Lincoln Lewis, Blue Water High, Pippa Black, John Cena, Operator Please, Shane Warne, Demelza Reveley, Charlotte Dawson, Project Runway’s Petrova and a pinkless Brian McFadden.
The winners were:
Fave TV Star Rove McManus
Fave International TV Star Miley Cyrus
Biggest Greenie Bindi Irwin
Fave Aussie Rove McManus
Fave Toon SpongeBob SquarePants
Fave Drama Show H20: Just Add Water

So Hot Right Now Australian Idol
christ, you know your getting old and when you dont know who half the winners are…and “Australian Idol” winner of the “So hot right now” award? shame for channel 10 that nobody over the age of 14 thinks so!
Lincoln Lewis needs to update the wardrobe…

OOPS
Suzie who are you trying to fool?? Bindii Irwins life is not her own. She is perpetually molded, used and trotted out to earn her mother more money. Like the rest of the money grubbing Irwin camp, she deserves no respect .
Ah They were NOT Bindi’s Minders show some respect
One was John Stainton who is Bindi’s manager
a
the other was Terri Irwin whose is Bindi’s Mum
Who disrespectful to call them her minders
This event proves to a lot of people that the real kids network is not Pay TV’s Nick but free-to-air’s Network Ten. No wonder their ratings are sinking faster than the Titanic.
Thanks for the pics. According to today’s Sunday Herald Sun, recently retired St Kilda player Robert Harvey brought his wife Danielle and their children to the event too.
