VIDEO : Blake Shelton is Ready to Get Slimed at 2016 Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards

Nickelodeon is hoping kids and their parents will turn their chairs for the host of the 2016 Kids' Choice Awards -- Blake Shelton.

Shelton's been making headlines for his budding romance with his Voice co-star Gwen Stefani, but he also has a soft spot for handing out orange blimps and dodging the green stuff.

For Nickelodeon, Shelton's cross-generational appeal could also translate to more parents and older viewers tuning in to the KCAs.
