Ne-Yo may have performed for a very deserving crowd at Saturday’s TeenNick Halo Awards, but the singer also had two huge fans in Big Time Rush.

“I’ve ben a fan of Ne-Yo before I even had a job in music,” BTR’s James Maslow told Celebuzz on the red carpet before the show.

Carlos Pena, who presented an award with the group at the event, held at the Hollywood Palladium, even provided some fun trivia on the carpet.

“He has a song called ‘Let Me Love You,’ and he wrote Mario’s ‘Let Me Love You.’ He did it twice . . . he’s pretty awesome,” Pena said.

The TeenNick Halo Awards, which recognizes teenagers who make a difference in their communities, also welcomed the likes of Mariah Carey, Lucy Hale, Victoria Justice and show creator, co-host and producer Nick Cannon.

“There are so many kids out there who are doing so much, even more than we are . . . they’re just giving their entire lives to go and help other people out and to me, that’s such a beautiful thing,” Pena said about the young difference makers.

The 2012 TeenNick Halo Awards will air Monday at 8PM ET on Nick at Nite.

Nick Cannon was all about the kids on Saturday — the teenagers he was honoring at an awards show, and his own twins, Roc and Roe.

“As a father it kind of turns open a whole different page because now it’s like you’re trying to set a fine example,” the 32-year-old told Celebuzz at the TeenNick HALO Awards.

The event, created, co-hosted and produced by Cannon, celebrates teenagers who make a difference in their communities.

“They need to be recognized,” Cannon said about the honorees.

Lucy Hale, Victoria Justice, Ne-Yo and Nicole Richie were just some of the big names that showed their support at Saturday’s event, held at the Hollywood Palladium.

Cannon’s wife, Mariah Carey, was also on hand for the big night. The couple, who have been married for four years, welcomed twins Monroe and Moroccan in April 2011.

The family recently celebrated a “milestone,” Cannon dished on the red carpet.

“My son’s playing video games already . . . that’s crazy!” he said.
