The 13th Annual Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards was held on April 15, 2000, at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, live on Nickelodeon, with around 17,000 in attendance at the venue. Rosie O'Donnell hosted for the fifth consecutive year, along with LL Cool J, David Arquette, Mandy Moore, and Frankie Muniz as co-hosts. The show featured a SpongeBob SquarePants short to introduce the Favorite Cartoon nominees and announce the winner.
Over 15 million voters cast ballots for the ceremony, including for ten online-only categories.
The winners were announced on an orb that was powered by the screams of all the kids.
Will Smith won the most awards that night and got slimed after Rosie asked what he was gonna do with all the blimps he won that night to which he replied with "I Don't Know"; this was one of the last times that on Nick that a sliming has been triggered by the phrase "I Don't Know" as a throwback to You Can't Do That on Television and the last time a sliming triggered by "I Don't Know" happened at the Kids Choice Awards.
