The Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards show today is the hottest ticket in L.A., bar none ... and you thought TMZ was the of sign Western civilization was crumbling.
We know people who know people who are going to the show this afternoon at Pauley Pavilion at UCLA. Connected parents have found it impossible to get tickets. These connected parents have called friends who are even more connected who can't get tickets. Those friends have had to call on even more connected friends ... get the picture?
It's so impossible to score a stub -- we're told parents who did get tickets had to go to a "secret location" yesterday to pick them up.
So why all the hubbub? Every actor in town is going, because in H-wood it's all about the demos. We're told a number of actors are dreading the event but know they have to show and will probably get slimed.
Hollywood is a tough town.

Chris Brown is officially letting Nickelodeon off the hook, and taking himself off the list of nominees at the upcoming Kids' Choice Awards.
In a statement, his rep says:
"Chris very much appreciates the support of his fans and the honor they have paid him in the way of nominations for Favorite Male Singer and Favorite Song.
Unfortunately, the controversy surrounding the incident last month has shifted the focus from the music to whether he should be allowed to be among those nominated.
While Chris would like to speak to his fans directly about this and other issues, pending legal proceedings preclude his doing so at this time. Once the matter before him has been resolved, he intends to do so."
A rep for Nickelodeon tells us: "We are confirming that Chris Brown has decided to withdraw his nominations from the Kids' Choice Awards. We agree with and respect his decision, and are looking forward to presenting a great event for our audience."

Everyone's wondering why in the world accused woman beater Chris Brown is still up for two Kids' Choice Awards. We finally have an answer -- Nickelodeon is blaming the kids.
Instead of being responsible adults and taking a stance, Nickelodeon, which airs the award show at the end of the month, is hiding behind their tiny voters. A Nick exec tells TMZ Brown "was nominated by kids several months ago, and the kids who vote will ultimately decide who wins in the category."
In other words -- kids rule! Who needs adults stepping in to teach young minds why Mr. Brown might not be the best role model?
Remember, kids also want cake for breakfast, unlimited allowance and the keys to Dad's new Porsche.
