Does green slime go with Barbie pink? Margot Robbie and Timothée Chalamet are set to appear in Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards ceremony, along with a handful of other celebrities and nominees, including Reneé Rapp, Anna Kendrick, Jelly Roll and “Good Burger 2” stars Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell.
Jack Black will represent on behalf of “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” baddie Bowser, and “Across the Spider-Verse” voice actor Shameik Moore will bring his “Spidey sense” to the awards show, taking place July 13 at UCLA’s Pauley Pavilion at 8 p.m.
The specifics behind these celebrity appearances are kept under wraps, but Robbie, Chalamet et al will play an active role in the ceremony, which is of course hosted by SpongeBob SquarePants (voiced by Tom Kenny) and Patrick Star (Bill Fagerbakke).
