'Grachi' Conquers Mexico's Kid's Choice Awards

By Michael Lopez

Is it surprising that the Latin American teen show Grachi dominated Mexico's Kid's Choice Awards last weekend? It's got hot stars, fun fantasy elements, and it happens to be produced by KCA's parent company, Nickelodeon.

Regardless, Grachi’s win for Favorite Show seems well deserved. Screaming fans at Mexico's Six Flags theme park couldn't get enough of stars Isabella Castillo and Andres Mercado.

Both Isabella and Andres took home orange blimps for their roles, giving the series a grand total of three wins. Executive producer, Solange Rivero seemed rather humbled by the outpouring of Grachi love when she took the stage.

"Me siento muy feliz por estos premios, es un gran logro y que no es más que el resultado del excelente trabajo de un gran equipo de actores, equipo técnico, productores, maquillistas, equipo de Nickelodeon, asistentes, fotógrafos, directores de arte y, por supuesto, de nuestra querida escritora Mariela Romero," she said.

Always a fun event, Mexico's KCAs let fans mingle with the stars, ride rollercoasters, and holler and hoot from a replica of the Chinese Theater. In addition to the Grachi crew, Dulce Maria also dropped by to pick up to a blimp for Best Female Solo Artist.
