Nickelodeon's Slime Cup Slimes Westfield Mount Druitt | SLIME CUP 2017 | Australia & New Zealand

More than 600 kids from around New South Wales in Australia registered to get messy when Nickelodeon's Slime Cup trials returned to Mt Druitt on Sunday 23rd April 2017!


Eager children and and their parents lined up at Westfield Mount Druitt as early as 6am to get their chance to be slimed.

About 3000 people made their way to the shopping centre to watch the fun and games throughout Sunday, with the event running from 9am to 4pm.


Entertainment included the mannequin challenge, live DJs and all things slime related, which drew a great response from the crowd over the course of the day. Nickelodeon's Heroes in a Half Shell, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, also made an appearance at the slime-tastic event!


For SLIME CUP 2017, Nickelodeon will select 15 teams of superstar besties from two live tryouts (Gold Coast on Sunday 9th April 2017; New South Wales on Sunday 23rd April 2017) and online auditions to compete in the Slime Arena and take on a series of larger-than-life inflatable challenges that will test their stamina, strength and stomachs to determine the final four teams. The finale episode will see these four teams compete on an all-new inflatable obstacle extravaganza to win the ultimate prize, the 2017 Nickelodeon SLIME CUP trophy.

Although both live SLIME CUP 2017 tryouts are now over, kids who think they have got what it takes to be Nickelodeon's next Slime Superstars can submit their best audition video to Nickelodeon online at www.slimecup.com.au up until Tuesday, 25th April 2017!


Hosted by Kristy Best and two U.S. based Nickelodeon stars yet to be announced, SLIME CUP will premiere at 5.30pm on Friday, 30 June 2017 and will feature expanded digital content, including the chance for kids to create their own SLIME CUP course online and opportunities for bespoke integration across multiple platforms.

Nickelodeon's SLIME CUP returns for a second season

12 April 2017

Following a hugely successful first season, Nickelodeon Australia is bringing back the slime with family-favourite adventure series SLIME CUP!

With crazier challenges, bigger spills, and even more ways for kids to get covered head-to-toe in slime, the six episode series will also feature expanded digital content, including the chance for kids to create their own SLIME CUP course online and opportunities for bespoke integration across multiple platforms.

SLIME CUP achieved great success both on-ground and on-air in 2016. The ratings for the series outperformed channel average by 83% with Grocery Buyers, and 25% of Children 5-12 on STV tuned into SLIME CUP 2016.

Digitally, SLIME CUP achieved almost 100,000 Unique Visitors over the course of the campaign and social impressions across Facebook reached over 3 million.

To be in the show, kids across Australia and New Zealand need to partner up with their sibling or friend and audition to be one of the 15 teams selected to take part in the Slime Arena and battle it out for the ultimate title. SLIME CUP is open to all kids aged 9 – 13 in Australia and New Zealand. To enter, kids can either submit their audition videos online or pre-register to complete a series of challenges at on-ground events.

For the first time ever, Nickelodeon took SLIME CUP to Queensland with live tryouts held last weekend at Sea World on the Gold Coast. Live tryouts will also be returning to NSW (Sunday, 23 April from 9am – 4pm at Westfield Mt Druitt). From the live tryouts and online auditions, 15 teams of superstar besties will be selected to compete in the Slime Arena and take on a series of larger-than-life inflatable challenges that will test their stamina, strength and stomachs to determine the final four teams.

The finale episode will see these four teams compete on an all-new inflatable obstacle extravaganza to win the ultimate prize, the 2017 Nickelodeon SLIME CUP trophy.

One of the family highlights of SLIME CUP 2016 was the parents or teachers involvement, where adults were put in the drop zone and covered in ‘stank’ if their team received one of the two slowest times. In 2017 Nickelodeon is bringing back the parents for a whole new messy challenge.

Ben Cox, General Manager for Nickelodeon Australia and New Zealand said: “We’re extremely excited to bring SLIME CUP back to Aussie and Kiwi kids! In 2017 we’re going to bring crazier challenges, bigger spills, and even more ways for kids to get covered head-to-toe in slime.”

SLIME CUP will be hosted by Kristy Best and a U.S. based Nickelodeon star yet to be announced. Sydney-based Kristy will be front and centre on the sidelines reporting on the slime, the wipe-outs and the wacky challenges kids will face throughout the series.

Kids who think they have got what it takes to be Nickelodeon’s next Slime Superstars can go to www.slimecup.com.au to submit their best audition video up until Tuesday, 25th April 2017. Kids will also be able to create their own SLIME CUP courses, watch short-form clips, play games and see all the behind-the-scenes action on the website.

Nickelodeon Star Cree Cicchino Talks "Game Shakers" And Her Love For Beyoncé

Nickelodeon has been paving the way for bonafide actors for decades, and Cree Cicchino is one of the network's latest rising stars. The 14-year-old landed her first role as Babe Carano in Dan Schneider's Game Shakers sitcom, which debuted in September 2015. The show focuses on two 7th grade friends, Babe and Kenzie Bell (Madisyn Shipman), whose science project quickly turns into a popular gaming app that catches the eye of rap billionaire Double G (Nickelodeon veteran Kel Mitchell).


As part of Fuse's Teen Takeover Week, they chatted with Cicchino about her role on Game Shakers, why she already considers herself a grandma, a love for competitive dancing (and Beyoncé) and much more!



FUSE: What was the defining moment that made you want to pursue acting?
Cree Cicchino: I don’t know if I really had one. I grew up as a competition dancer and I’ve been dancing since I was 4, so I’ve always loved performing in front of people. Every now and then I would have to go to a studio a little bit farther from home where my sister danced. So when I had nothing to do, my mom and I said “Hey, why don’t we try acting? Let’s give it a shot.” We weren’t really expecting anything. So I took a little monologue class and after three months we had a showcase. We didn’t know what was happening; we thought it was just for the parents and teachers. And they said, “No, people from the industry are coming.” I did my monologue, I think it was about Little Bo Peep [laughs], and the next day like five people called us. Then I ended up with a manager and an agent, and found myself in California doing a tv show!

I know you're a Queens girl. Was it hard transitioning to Los Angeles?
Just the energy out here is different. The fact that it never snows is weird! Every time it rains people don’t go outside for three days. Like what are you doing, it’s just rain [laughs]. So it was definitely an adjustment, but I really do love it out here.

How did you score your role on Game Shakers?
I landed it just like how anyone else would land the role. It was basically my first job; I really hadn’t acted before. I was very new, but I auditioned and then I got a call back. Then it was a lot of flying back to L.A. and then back to home to New York. After a few meetings I landed the pilot.

Have you had embarrassing moments on set of the show?
Oh all the time! There was actually this one scene where I was trying on dresses because we had to go to this party. I was running in a room back and forth wearing heels. So I took a dress off the rack and as I’m running towards the back of the Game Shakers [set] I completely slipped under myself and fell so hard! But me trying to keep it going, I stood up, looked back and the entire cast was on the verge of hysterical laughter. I improvised a quick line that went with the scene, finished my mark and Dan [Schneider, the show creator] liked it so much that he kept it in. And it actually aired in the episode.


Photographer: Ricky Middlesworth; Hair: David Gardner; Makeup: Garret Gervais; Stylist: Chris Horan

So what has been your favorite episode to shoot so far?
It hasn’t aired yet! I’ll tell you that it’s very iconic and when you see it on TV you’ll know what I’m talking about.

Kel Mitchel also stars on the show and he's a Nickelodeon veteran. Do you get any advice from him?
Kel is just in incredible. Not even just as an actor, but as a person. When we have 7 o’clock call times and everyone on set is asleep, he comes on set and literally sings us a song every single morning. “Good morning beautiful PEOPLEEEE!” Everybody wakes up and starts laughing! He is just great. I’ve personally learned a lot by just watching how he delivers his lines, or how he messes up but manages to keep going and make it funnier. And all of his improve too. In the middle of a line maybe he’ll decide to run up to a trampoline and start jumping on it just because he can. I’m so honored to be working with someone who I can learn so much from.

Nickelodeon and Disney are known for shaping some of the biggest teen stars like Selena Gomez, Miley Cyrus and Ariana Grande. Do you feel confident that you’re one of the next teens to take over TV?
I know I will definitely try! I’ve developed such a love for acting and all I can hope for is longevity and to do more respected work.

Is it hard to balance normal teen life going to movies or mall with work?
In some ways not at all. I don’t really met fans a lot on the street. It’ll happen once or twice if I’m with other Nick stars. It can get a little difficult balancing school and work. Right now I’m on hiatus so it’s a bit easier now that I don’t have too much to do and I’m not on set for 9 hours a day every single day. When you work a long day you just want to go home and sleep, but you do have homework. Or when it’s the weekend and you’re dead from the week and don’t even want to move from your bed, but you want to go out to Universal with friends. So it can be a little harder sometimes. But it doesn’t affect me too much.

What are some things you like to do when you have time off?
Honestly I find so much relaxation just laying down with the dogs and binge-watching shows. It’s important to have your down time. All of my friends know that if I’m tired and I just want to go somewhere, then we’ll have a froyo date and eat way too much!

I know Beyoncé is one of your biggest inspirations, what is it about her that you connect with?
First of all, dancing-wise…like I said I was in competitions and did all sorts of styles from ballet to tap. When I moved out here, I focused more on hip-hop and jazz, and that’s what Beyoncé does. I just love her voice, where she could pull off R&B songs and then a pop song and then she’ll go really slow. I think I’ve always been inspired by the fact that she works so hard for herself 24/7. Beyoncé is the CEO of Beyoncé! I also really admire that she took time to take breaks in between tours because she needs to be a real person now and then.

Being of Ecuadorian background, do you think Latin representation on TV can improve?
Of course. We’ve got so much work to do, but it is starting to flourish. One of my favorite shows is Jane the Virgin. Me and my mom found it and we binge-watched an entire season in one day. It’s such a great representation of Latino families and Gina Rodriguez is so ridiculously talented. So there’s definitely a lot more to be done, but we’re at a good start right now.

Do you feel pressure to prove yourself in the industry because of your age?
No actually, not really. All the castmates who are also 14, I think we try to stay very professional. And the adult crew members are open to hearing our ideas and the writers room likes to hear our opinions on things. Same with Dan and the director. They all do a great job of taking us seriously.

Who are some of your favorite teen actors and singers at the moment?
There are so many great ones. I think Sabrina Carpenter is such a talented singer. And even my friends on Nickelodeon, I respect all of them so much. Rowan Blanchard is amazing. She says some really great things and shares her opinion quite outwardly, which I really respect.

You use social media a lot! Any favorite memes recently?
I don’t think I actually ever posted a meme. But just from looking at them…you know the one with that guy on the phone looking really mad? That one’s a classic! I’m hysterical every time I see that guy.

Is there anything you think adults don’t understand about teens?
I’m more of an old lady than a teenager! I’m always at home with the dogs, drinking tea and watching TV. But for everyone it’s different. I think kids have a lot of thoughts and creativity that doesn’t get taken as seriously by adults. I think they have so much potential that’s not being looked at.

Nella the Princess Knight Set To Rule Over Nick Jr. UK This May

Original Nickelodeon UK & Ireland Press Release:

NELLA THE PRINCESS KNIGHT SET TO RULE OVER NICK JR. THIS MAY


Join Nella’s quest to save her Kingdom when Nick Jr. welcomes the unconventional Princess on Monday 15th May at 5:30pm



London, 24th April 2017 - Brand new pre-school show Nella the Princess Knight is set to premiere on Monday 15th May at 5:30pm on Nick Jr. The animation follows the adventures of an 8 year old heroine Nella, who is far from your average Princess… she can also transform into a Princess Knight to save her kingdom. With the compassion and grace required of a royal mixed with the courage and determination that comes with Knighthood, Nella embodies the perfect Princess Knight.


She enjoys dancing at extravagant balls just as much as meeting fire-breathing dragons and her ability to transform into a Princess Knight transcends the traditional roles and expectations of a Princess. Alongside her friends: Trinket, Nella’s glamorous unicorn and best friend; Sir Garrett, a loyal and adventurous knight; and Clod, Garrett’s trusty steed, Nella embarks on heroic quests to protect the kingdom and help her friends.


Robert Vargas (Zack and Quack) serves as an executive producer on Nella the Princess Knight and the series is created by Christine Ricci (Blaze and the Monster Machines, Dora the Explorer). It is the newest show to join Nick Jr’s top-ranked pre-school properties, airing alongside PAW Patrol, Blaze and the Monster Machines and Shimmer and Shine.

Online at nickjr.co.uk/nella, parents and children can meet the characters, discover activities, watch clips and sing along to the theme tune. For any fans that can’t wait until 15th May, a sneak peek of the first episode will be available to watch exclusively online a week before the Nick Jr. premiere.
