1998
Blockbuster Entertainment Awards on March 10, 1998
Michelle
presented the award for Favorite Female R&B artist on the 1998 Blockbuster
Entertainment Awards on March 10, 1998. She seemed a little nervous,
but otherwise did great! Although many of the presenters gave out
an award with someone else, she gave it out by herself. She wore
a long black dress with gold embroidery. The winner was Janet Jackson,
who kissed Michelle when she accepted the award. Her sister, Karen,
attended the awards show with Michelle. Check out a picture of Michelle
and Karen arriving
at the awards and posing
on the red caret. The Blockbuster Entertainment Awards aired
on UPN, and was replayed several times during March on VH1. Check
out the following pictures of Michelle at the awards: smiling
backstage, with
her sister Karen, another
with her sister, on
the red carpet, a
closeup on the red carpet, and with
Mark McGarth, lead singer of Sugar Ray.
Entertainment Tonight
had an online chat with some of the celebrities that attended the
award show, and Michelle was one of those who participated. Here
is the part with Michelle:
ET Host: Thank
you for stopping by Joan. Next we have Michelle Kwan
john asks: Michelle - Will you remain an amateur for Salt Lake
City?
Michelle Kwan: Yes, I will remain an amateur. I feel like
I have lots more to accomplish. I love competing and would like
to continue. I'm only 17.
grant&sue asks: Michelle -- you were robbed !!! We love
you! What's next?
Michelle Kwan: You know it was up to the judges to decide.
It was a tough decision. I skated my best and it was a disappointing,
but life goes on.
Shyllo Robinson asks: Michelle - What kind of feeling is
it to win an Olympic medal?
Michelle Kwan: Such pride, honor. A lot of dreams that happened
that night when I was standing on the podium. I knew I had accomplished
a lot. To see the two American flags being raised was a sense of
accomplishment.
ET Host: Thank you Michelle.
Also, Howard Stern interviewed
several of the celebrities that were at the Blockbuster Awards for
his radio and TV show. Again, Michelle was one of these celebrities.
She was interviewed with Sarah Michelle Gellar. For a 17 year old
on the Howard Stern show, she handled herself really well. Check
out the following pictures of Michelle on the show: With
Sarah Michelle Gellar, watching
her microphone being fixed, laughing
on the show, smiling
on the show, and several
more from SMGfan.com. You can also check out a transcript

1999
American Teacher Awards on November 14, 1999
Michelle
presented the Wellness and Sports Award at the American Teacher
Awards on November 14, 1999 at Pantages Theater in Los Angeles.
Disney's American Teacher Awards, was developed to honor outstanding
members of the teaching profession whose talent, commitment and
creativity have a profound and lasting impact on our children and
society. The awards were telecast on the Disney channel on November
15 and repeated on November 18, 1999. She wore a simple black dress
with a fringe-like piece on the bottom and on the sleeves. She wore
black sandals with a large size heel. She gave a brief speech about
the importance of wellness and sports to the development of a well
rounded person who can be successful in life. She said that the
award she was presenting represented the fact that it is the development
of the whole well-rounded individual, rather than the measure of
gold medal success, that determines a persons character and success
in life. Then she presented the award. Check out a picture of Michelle
backstage
at the awards. For more info, check out the press
release, as well as the articles Simply
the Best, and More

Blockbuster Entertainment Awards on May 9, 2000
Michelle
presented an award on the 2000 Blockbuster Entertainment Awards
on Tuesday, May 9, 2000 at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles.
She, along with the band 98 degrees, presented the award for Favorite
Supporting Actor in an action movie to LL Cool J. She looked very
relaxed. A mini transcript -- she said, "This year's nominees
for favorite supporting actor in an action film reflect what the
blockbusters are all about: The marriage of movies and music."
Then 98 degrees spoke. Then, she said, "the nominees from both
worlds are..." Then, after the nominees were announced, she
said, "The Blockbuster award for Favorite Supporting Actor
in an action film goes to...LL Cool J!" She was wearing a coral
snakeskin outfit, designed by Vertigo, which was later praised by
People, Glamour, InStyle, and Teen magazine. Michelle was shown
at the awards show on several local LA news stations the next day.
On the KTLA Morning News, they asked celebrities as they were arriving
to the awards, "What is the largest late fee you have ever
paid?" Michelle said she had left a tape in her room once,
and forgot about it. She decided it would be better to buy the movie
because it was cheaper than paying the late fee. During one of the
commercials for the Blockbuster Awards show on FOX, they showed
Michelle at the awards saying, "Keanu Reeves is here." Check out
the following pictures of Michelle at the awards: Smiling

2002
Teen Choice Awards on August 4, 2002
Michelle
attended the 2002 Teen Choice Awards on August 4, 2002 in Los Angeles
at the The Universal Amphitheatre. She was at the award show because
she was nominated in the "Choice Female Athlete" category.
And, Michelle won! Since the awards had a beach theme, Michelle
wore a bikini and sarong. In an article, she admitted she may have
taken the beach concept a little further than the other attendees.
She said, "No one else was wearing beachwear, and I was in the car
saying, 'I'm not getting out...I'm wearing a bathing suit." Thankfully,
she did decide to get out of the car, and had a blast. She said
she enjoyed meeting the singers she listens to, "I just saw Usher
[whom] I was listening to before I competed, so I had to give him
a hug," she said. Check out a picture of Michelle
with Usher backstage. Also, while walking down the red carpet,
she met some of the American Idol finalists. On the American Idol
DVD, they show footage of Michelle posing for pictures and signing
autographs for the AI finalists.
The awards aired on August
19, 2002 on FOX. Her category was awarded in the first half hour
of the show. When they announced the nominees, they showed this
picture of Michelle. Mark McGarth and Pamela Anderson presented
her award. When her name was announced, she hugged the girl sitting
next to her (I think she was a fan...an incredibly lucky girl, LOL!),
and walked onto the stage, slapping hands with the fans near the
stage on the way. Her acceptance speech, "Thank
you! This is awesome! This is the first time I've been able to wear
a bathing suit, I've been in the ice rink for the past 4 months.
This is so awesome. Thank you Seventeen. Thank you for everybody
who voted!"
During the broadcast,
she was shown a total of 5 times. Along with when she won the award,
she was also shown arriving (during the part where they announce
who will appear on the show), sitting in her seat early in the show
(she waved and winked towards the camera), sitting in her seat later
in the show (she was shown talking to the girl next to her), and
backstage after getting her award. When she was shown backstage,
she said, "This is awesome, you know, to be in this kind of
atmosphere. The energy...I wanted to get up and dance and boogie."
She then was dancing around. Check out amethystbatgirl's
screencaptures from the broadcast. Also, check out Moyesii's
real video clip of Michelle accepting her award and later backstage.
The clip is about 4MB and is hosted on Cruella
De Kwan's site.

MTV Movie Awards on June 4, 2005
Michelle
attended the 2005 MTV Movie Awards on June 4, 2005 in Los Angeles
at the Shrine Auditorium. She just attended to see the show, as
she wasn't nominated for anything (obviously!) and was not a presenter.
The awards premiered on MTV on June 9 at 8:30, but she wasn't shown
during the awards, or pre & post show. None of the entertainment
shows that showed the red carpet arrivals at the awards showed Michelle
at all. During a recap later in the week on MSNBC, they did show
her briefly. Check
