Two BCK Young Stars have received nominations for the 2026 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards.
Janice LeAnn Brown and Leah Sava Jeffries were included among this year’s nominees, announced Thursday, Oct. 8.
Brown, who portrays Billie in Disney’s Wizards Beyond Waverly Place, is nominated for Favorite Female TV Star (Kids). She will face Jeffries, the star of Disney+’s Percy Jackson and the Olympians, where she plays Annabeth Chase.
The two actresses are also representing series nominated for Favorite Kids TV Show.
The nomination arrives at an especially timely moment for Brown. Season 2 of Wizards Beyond Waverly Place debuted on Disney+ on Oct. 8—the same day the Kids’ Choice Awards nominees were revealed—following its September premiere on Disney Channel.

Jeffries is set to reprise her role as Annabeth when Percy Jackson and the Olympians returns for Season 3 on Nov. 20. She has also been working on another Disney project, filming The Cheetah Girls: Next Gen overseas when Disney announced the Percy Jackson premiere date this summer.
