Maine Mendoza won the ‘Favorite Pinoy Personality’ at the 2016 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards which aired last March 12, 2016.
Maine Mendoza was competing against Enrique Gil, James Reid and Kathryn Bernardo, but ultimately fans of the former Dubsmash Queen, KalyeSerye Queen, and other half of the 2015 AlDub Pairing triumphed.
Not long ago, we reported that a petition to disqualify Maine Mendoza from Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards 2016 was spearheaded by some JaDines x KathNiels x LizQuens on change.org, and it seems like this didn’t go unnoticed by the Nickelodeon International team as once they have posted a video of Maine Mendoza accepting the award, a statement was immediately released assuring the credibility and fairness of the system that handles that calculation of votes and appeal to simply be happy for all the winners.
Hi friends! Thanks for all your passion, love and hard work in voting for your Favorite Pinoy Personality at the 2016 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards. Nickelodeon has systems in place to check on votes for all nominees. We want to reassure fans we only count the votes that were made fairly. Let’s be happy for all the nominees who’ve now joined the #KCA hall of fame!
This is basically a non-negotiable and done deal for Nickelodeon but a quick look at the comments and replies under the official statement seems to not stop the passionate fans from lashing at each other.
The good thing is there are classy and rational fans who know when to be graceful in defeat and humble in the victory of their favorite favorite Pinoy personality, Maine Mendoza.
