Rihanna, Sabrina Carpenter, Jack Black Provide Best Moments at 2025 Kids’ Choice Awards

My main takeaway from the 2025 Kids’ Choice Awards is that kids like pretty much the same musical artists as everybody else. Sabrina Carpenter won favorite album for Short n’ Sweet, just as she had won the Grammy for best pop vocal album in February. SZA and Bruno Mars won favorite female and male artist, respectively. Carpenter and Benson Boone won favorite female and male breakout artist, respectively. These four artists could have been winners on just about any show.

Kendrick Lamar and SZA took favorite music collaboration for “luther,” which topped the Billboard Hot 100 for 13 weeks and could very well be headed to a Grammy win for record of the year early next year. (The song’s namesake, Luther Vandross, died in 2005, long before most of the current Kids’ Choice Awards audience was even born.)

Wicked, which set a new record as the top-grossing film adapted from a Broadway musical, won for favorite movie. Ariana Grande won favorite movie actress for playing Glinda in that blockbuster film and also took favorite song from a movie as a featured artist on Cynthia Erivo’s “Defying Gravity.”

Other music winners included Stray Kids (favorite music group), Tyla (favorite global music star) and Selena Gomez and benny blanco (favorite viral song for “Bluest Flame”).

While slime, and lots of it, is the clearly main attraction on this show, several of the winners snuck inspiring and important messages into their acceptance speeches.

Here are five of the best moments from the 2025 Kids’ Choice Awards.
