Golden Raspberry Awards Announced: Michelle Yeoh Avoids Worst Actress Notoriety

On the eve of the Oscars ceremony, the Golden Raspberry Awards, known as the "Razzies," which are considered the "Oscars of Bad Movies," have, as usual, announced the year's worst winners. The film War of the Worlds, starring Black actor Ice Cube, took home five awards: Worst Picture, Actor, Prequel/Remake/Rip-off/Sequel, Director, and Screenplay—making it impressively awful. This year, Oscar-winning actress Michelle Yeoh and Natalie Portman were both nominated for Worst Actress but luckily dodged the title, as it went to Rebel Wilson for Bride Hard. This is her third Razzie nomination and her first time winning.

War of the Worlds, starring Ice Cube, and Snow White each led with six nominations, but War of the Worlds edged out as the more terrible film. In Snow White, the seven “artificial” dwarfs from the film took Worst Supporting Actor and Worst On-Screen Combo.

This year, Oscar Best Actress nominee Kate Hudson was given the Razzie Redeemer Award for her outstanding performance in Song Sung Blue.
