TV talk-show host Rove McManus was dumped in a pool of a slime as he took out the top prize at the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards for the second year in a row.
The perennial kids’ champion Rove descended from a slippery slide into a slime pool as he was announced the ‘fave aussie’, dragging in Australian Idol host Andrew Gunsberg with him.
He beat the likes of Bindi Irwin, Hugh Jackman and Jessica Mauboy for the title.
It was certainly McManus’ night.
He earlier beat Gunsberg in the famed burp off competition, and took out fave TV star.
As he went up to accept his award McManus was mobbed by children grabbing him in the audience.
“I need to tell you something, someone touched my bum,” McManus laughed on stage.
“… And that’s very inappropriate.”
