Vice President Kamala Harris is making an appearance during the 2021 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards!
The 56-year-old first female Vice President made virtual appearance during the awards show on Saturday (March 13) to help present the Generation Change Award with Jennifer Garner.
In her message, VP Harris honored all of the “young leaders for stepping up during the pandemic.
“Thank you to the young leaders for being so incredible, and for all that you do and will do. From social distancing to remote learning, you’ve been through a lot this year,” VP Harris started. “But through it all, you young leaders have really stepped up. You’ve worn your masks, you’ve helped out your neighbors, you’ve been role models in your community.”
“When I was young, my mother used to say, ‘Kamala, don’t just sit around and complain about things. Do something about it.’ Well you are doing something,” VP Harris continued. “You are creating a better future and you inspire me and President Biden every day. We are so grateful for you, and we want you to know that we’re doing everything we can to make sure all of our students and young leaders can get back to school and back with your friends, and be safe and thrive. Thank you for stepping up. You make us and your country so proud.”
From the Kids’ Choice Awards stage, Jennifer then presented the award to “kids everywhere.”
