Getting your Trinity Audio player ready…

While you couldn’t pay me to go anywhere I could potentially leave from covered in green slime, every year the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards are a hot ticket in town. Young stars show up (this year, Chloe and Halle Bailey arrived looking fabulous), big stars also appear (Gabrielle Union was in the house!) and your favorites like to make the awards show a family affair. This year, rapper Kid Cudi, in his elf ears, actually took the stage with an appearance from his beautiful daughter,Vada, with both gleefully getting slimed. The rapper would later take to Twitter to stan his 12-year-old for agreeing to take the stage with him.

“Let me just say, my baby is a star,” he wrote on Twitter. “She went up there on that stage and wasnt [sic] scared or anything and showed up and gave nothing but energy. Wow. I am a really proud dad right now.” He added, “Vada daddy loves u kid!!”

Lance Gross was also present with his firstborn, daughter Berkeley. She clearly had the time of her life, snapping up photos with all of the stars while her dad held the camera. (Even cuter, they had a full-on daddy-daughter weekend, with the actor taking Berkeley to see an Alvin Ailey show, to an art museum and out for lobster rolls! He’s winning that Best Dad Award for sure.)
