The 2012 Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards nominees were announced today. Katy Perry leads the nominations, not only for her music, but also for her voice work in 'The Smurfs.' Other nominees include Lady Gaga, Selena Gomez (for her music and her work on 'Wizards of Waverly Place'), Taylor Swift, Bruno Mars, Justin Bieber and, appropriately enough, Nickelodeon starlet Miranda Cosgrove.

Kids can vote for their favorite artists at Nick.com beginning March 1, with results to be announced at the annual Kids Choice Awards ceremony on Saturday, March 31 at 8PM ET. Will Smith will host the festivities, which include not only live performances and blimp trophies, but also a good amount of the kids' network's trademark green slime.

The competition looks fierce this year (Perry is up against Johnny Depp!), but we think a lot of Popcrush artists will take home some trophies.
