At the Annual Nickelodeon Kid’s Choice Award, Michelle Obama received the “Big Help” award from the children of America as reported on Yahoo! News.
The awards are given by the Nickelodeon television network and voted on by young viewers and families who watch it. Each year the program is most notable for green “slime” that shoots into the air and rains down on audience members and Hollywood stars who this year included Will Smith and Tyra Banks.
Mrs. Obama was not there to receive her award, probably a good thing because it’s a tradition to get slimed.
Michelle Obama, appearing via satellite and holding the Nickelodeon blimp trophy in her hands, encouraged children and young teenagers to exercise, eat smart and get an education.
“You guys have to make smart and healthy choices in your own lives that will give you the focus to do better in school and the energy to play all day long,” said the first lady and mother of two girls, Sasha and Malia.
It’s great to see that the children of America get it and are in support of Mrs. Obama and her Let’s Move! Campaign. Political pundits and naysayers get on board and stop with all the hate.
