Los Angeles - Johnny Depp showed his appreciation for his Kids' Choice Award with a sliming.
After earning the blimp-shaped favourite movie actor trophy for his Mad Hatter role in Alice in Wonderland, Depp manned a hose and unleashed waves of green goop on the screaming crowd of more than 10 000 kids - and a few adults.
"You guys are the future," he said on Saturday before spraying the slime inside University of Southern California's Galen Centre. "Take good care of us."
The screaming mob at Nickelodeon's 24th annual fan-favourite ceremony later revolted by flicking the goo at Modern Family co-star Rico Rodriguez and Arthur leading man Russell Brand as they presented Eddie Murphy with the award for favourite voice from an animated movie for his role in Shrek Forever After.
Slime throne
Rodriguez and Brand struggled to recite their introduction as the green stuff was slung at them.
"Johnny, I wish you'd drowned them!" screeched Brand.
Jack Black, the zany master of ceremonies, kicked off the silly show by arriving in a monster truck, performing a flash mob-style routine on the orange carpet, then dancing alongside the Black Eyed Peas, who crooned a medley of their tunes while sporting outfits made of colourful blocks. He announced that more than 200 million votes were cast for the show.
Several celebrities received their own sliming. Heidi Klum was blasted with goop from an envelope. Jane Lynch delivered a slime slushie to Jason Segel, while Snoop Dogg was doused after performing with boy band Big Time Rush.
Josh Duhamel, who dressed up as an absentee Bieber, was inducted into the Arm Fart Hall of Fame and crowned in a slime throne.
Miley Cyrus, who was honoured as favourite movie actress for The Last Song, missed the green goo.
"Thank you for not sliming me," she said.
Justin Timberlake was awarded the show's silver Big Help trophy for his environmental and charitable work. He encouraged the audience to stand and scream if they've ever been helpful in their lives and encouraged children to listen to their parents.
