FILM
FAVORITE MOVIE
Nominees: “Dolittle,” “Hamilton,” “Hubie Halloween,” “Mulan,” “Sonic the Hedgehog,” “Wonder Woman 1984”
Who We Think Will Win: A bunch of animals that talk, an adventure on a mythical island, and Dr. John Dolittle who also looks like the guy who played Iron Man? This is an easy choice! We’re sure the kids will pick Dolittle as their favorite movie of 2020.

Who We Think Will Win: Billie Eilish is so successful and has been breaking all kinds of records this past year. She also just released her documentary, “Billie Eilish: The World’s A Little Blurry,” where she shared her journey in all aspects of her life. She’ll be taking the blimp home.
FAVORITE MALE ARTIST

FAVORITE MUSIC GROUP
Nominees: Black Eyed Peas, BLACKPINK, BTS, Jonas Brothers, Maroon 5, OneRepublic
Who We Think Will Win: This is a tough choice but who hasn’t been singing along to the catchy tune of “Dynamite” for the past couple months. With their Army on their side, we totally think BTS will take home the blimp for “Favorite Music Group.”

FAVORITE GLOBAL MUSIC STAR
Nominees: BTS (Asia), Savannah Clarke (Australia), David Guetta (Europe), Master KG (Africa), Taylor Swift (North America), Sebastián Yatra (Latin America)
Who We Think Will Win: BTS have been absolutely everyone in the past few years, it’s hard to imagine anyone else winning this award. Especially with catchy tunes like “Dynamite” and “Boy with Luv.”

Who We Think Will Win: This Laker star is a favorite of many and has been a Kids’ Choice Award winner before, we won’t be surprised if LeBron James takes the W on Saturday night again as well especially when fans are so excited for his new movie, Space Jam: A New Legacy will be coming out soon!

Nominees: Among Us, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Fortnite, Minecraft, Pokémon GO, Roblox
Who We Think Will Win: In a world where we have been confined in the safety of our homes and asked to keep a distance between our friends and family, kids have turned to the 3D virtual world experience of Roblox to hang out with their friends and play games with them despite not being able to see them! A fun experience that will definitely get them the Kid’s Choice in this category.
