The 37th Annual Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards ceremony was held on July 13, 2024, at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California.

As part of their yearly ttradition, during the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards ceremony, a celebrity presenter or award winner often get slimed onstage or offstage. As the years went on, getting slimed became more of an honor, and less of a comedic humiliation akin to the early Nickelodeon series You Can't Do That on Television, from which the concept of sliming originated.
Benny Blanco, alongside Bella Poarch, graced the stage to announce the winner of the Favorite Male Voice from an Animated Movie at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards 2024. Shortly after, Blanco hilariously slurped up some slime from the stage and went onto smear the slime all over his face.
As the action left him looking green. Poarch laughed and noted just how excited Blanco was to be announcing the award. He replied, "Are you kidding me? It's been my dream my whole life to be in animated movie. I already look like the guy from Shrek with his eyes too far apart."
