    looks like a chubby bear. the show was def not so great this year and having Snoop Dogg on a kids choice event was a little distastful. You only have to look at his site to see degrading pornography.

    Sean Kingston is doing good, even over here in the U.K.
    You hear his single everywhere you go, i am not a fan, I would not have called it reggae, either but the song is catchy and the teens in the U.K love it. Well done
