Another day, another reason to be proud of Tyla. Our superstar is hosting the 2025 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards!

 

Global (16 May 2025) — If breaking pop culture barriers was a South African, it has to be Tyla.

Following what has already been a jam-packed year for the superstar (she’s done and dusted the MET Gala, claimed the title of World Artist of the Year, rocked Coachella and surpassed one billion streams for ‘Water’, to name a few), it’s officially been announced that Tyla is set to host the 2025 the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards!

This will be the very first time that a South African will be hosting global coverage of the Kids’ Choice Awards.

Known for bringing a fun, childlike and slimy spin to traditional award ceremonies, the Kids Choice Awards orbit (you guessed it) kids choosing their favourites in the entertainment world.

From voting for the Kid’s TV shows that they love the most to artists and even villains, there are a plethora of categories for up-and-comers as well as industry veterans to vie for the most unfiltered opinions around—that of children.

As such, hosting such a widely publicised and A-lister-centric ceremony is no small gig. It speaks volumes about our firecracker’s popularity around the world and places her in good steed to get even bigger hosting opportunities (we’d hardly be surprised to see Tyla host the Grammys one of these years).

The Kids’ Choice Awards will be live and airing on 21 June.

Meanwhile, in more Tyla news, her latest track, ‘Bliss’, is out, proud and ready for you to listen to!
