Two BCK Young Stars are among the nominees for the 2026 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards.
Janice LeAnn Brown and Leah Sava Jeffries have earned nominations on this year’s list, which was announced Thursday, Oct. 8.
Brown, who stars as Billie in Disney’s Wizards Beyond Waverly Place, is up for Favorite Female TV Star (Kids). She will compete in the category alongside Jeffries, who plays Annabeth Chase on Disney+’s Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
Both actresses are representing shows that also earned nominations for Favorite Kids TV Show.
The timing gives Brown another reason to celebrate. Season 2 of Wizards Beyond Waverly Place arrived on Disney+ on Oct. 8, the same day the Kids’ Choice Awards nominations were announced, after premiering on Disney Channel in September.

Jeffries, meanwhile, will return as Annabeth when Percy Jackson and the Olympians premieres its third season on Nov. 20. She has also been busy with another Disney project and was overseas filming The Cheetah Girls: Next Gen when Disney announced the Percy Jackson premiere date this summer.
