Lautner, Miley Cyrus win Kids' Choice Awards (9:42 a.m.)

LOS ANGELES — Team Jacob is triumphant at the Kids' Choice Awards.

"Twilight" star Taylor Lautner picked up two orange, blimp-shaped trophies at Saturday's 23rd annual shenanigan-packed Nickelodeon spectacle inside UCLA's Pauley Pavilion. Lautner snared the favorite actor honor for his role as hunky werewolf Jacob Black in "New Moon" as well as the inaugural cutest couple award with his "Twilight" co-star Kristin Stewart.

"I have to admit I have always dreamt of winning one of these orange blimps," said Lautner.

The fan-favorite ceremony's host, "Paul Blart: Mall Cop" actor-comedian Kevin James, kicked off the show by performing a hip-hop dance routine as Adam Sandler serenaded him from above while dressed as an angel and fountains of green slime spontaneously gushed on the first few rows of the audience. James said over 115 million votes were received this year.

Katy Perry, wearing a bright blue wig and skintight flowery dress, was blasted with slime before presenting the favorite movie actress trophy to Miley Cyrus. The gooey "I Kissed a Girl" singer chased the "Hannah Montana" actress around the stage, but co-presenter Jonah Hill grabbed Perry before she could embrace the 17-year-old singer-actress a slimy hug.

"I can't see anything," complained Perry. "Why does it taste like boogers?"

Other favorites included "iCarly" for TV show, Selena Gomez for TV actress, Dylan Sprouse for TV actor, "Up" for animated movie and Jim Carrey for voice from an animated movie for "A Christmas Carol." In the music categories, the winners were Jay-Z for male singer and Taylor Swift for female singer and song for "You Belong With Me." (AP)
