Slimy Kids' Choice Awards
I know, you're all watching the Pitt game. It's 60-59 Pitt, with 5:41 to go.
I'm switching back and forth between March Madness and Slime Time: the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards.
Let's see, among the winners: the Jonas Brothers (over the Pussycat Dolls, Linkin Park and Daughtry for best musical group) and "High School Musical 3" (over "Iron Man," "The Dark Knight" and "Bedtime Stories"). The "Twilight" series won, too, and Taylor Lautner came to accept the award, saying the filming of "New Moon" was under way.
Pitt's up by 4, with 3:19 to go -- uh-oh, Villanova pulls within 1, and they're perfect from the line tonight.
Hugh Jackman and Sandra Bullock got slimed, big time, and Leonard DiCaprio got to be dignified when he was honored with the first Big Green Help Award for his environmental work. Will Ferrell is sliding down a slime slide for a "world record." Some crazy person bungy-jumped into slime, too -- saw that on the Nic Web site. Ack.
Chris Pine, the new Capt. Kirk, is tall! Or America Ferrara is short. They're presenting together.
The Rock -- OK, Dwayne Johnson -- has been an amiable host. Interesting to see the former wrestler become a star of family fare like "The Game Plan" and "Race to Witch Mountain." After his great turn on "Saturday Night Live" recently, I hope he does some more adult comedy work soon.
Villanova takes the lead with a minute-plus to go, and Pitt misse and travels. What's up with that?
Dwayne Johnson is forced to put on an orange dress (like one worn by Miley Cyrus) in an online vote. Come on, is that really what kids want to see?
Villanova still hitting free throws with 45 secs to go; 73-69 'Cats. Oh, but a 3-pointer from Sam Young. 73-72. Commercial.
Favorite reality show is: "American Idol." Paula Abdul is there with David Archuleta. What's she wearing? Crowning of burp champ coming up ...
Wanamaker fouls and fouls out.
... I missed the best burper. Well, it was an animated competition this year. ...
Villanova by 4 with 20 secs to go. Now by 2 with 10.6 seconds to go.
Pitt falls, but not before Levance Fields loooooooooong shot has a chance to win it at the buzzer. Sigh.
Now Dwayne Johnson is wearing a skirt (just a skirt) and chanting "slime" in some sort of tribal dance. Weird. And that summons the Jonas Brothers to get slimed.
Somehow, with Pitt losing, I can't get excited by lots of celebs covered in green goop.
