This is a list of people who accepted Golden Raspberry Awards. The Golden Raspberry Awards, known as the Razzies, is an awards ceremony to recognize the worst in American film. As a result, few of the winners of the awards actually accept them. American copywriter and publicist John J.B. Wilson traditionally held potluck dinner parties at his house in Los Angeles on the night of the Academy Awards, and decided to formalize the event after watching a double feature of Can't Stop the Music and Xanadu. Approximately three dozen people came to the 1st Golden Raspberry Awards. The 2nd Golden Raspberry Awards had double the attendance of the first, and the 3rd awards ceremony redoubled that number. By the 4th Golden Raspberry Awards ceremony (1984), CNN and two major wire services covered the event. According to current Razzies tradition the ceremony itself precedes the corresponding Academy Award function by one day. The awards themselves typically cost US$4.79 each, in the form of a "golfball-sized raspberry" which sits atop a Super 8 mm film reel; the whole of which is spray-painted gold.

In 1988, Comedian Bill Cosby became the first recipient actually to accept a Golden Raspberry Award, for the film Leonard Part 6. Arrangements were made to present Cosby with his awards on a late-night program on the Fox Network. Fox made Cosby's awards out of 24-carat gold and Italian marble, which cost almost $30,000. Tom Selleck accepted his award for Worst Supporting Actor for his role in the 1992 film Christopher Columbus: The Discovery. His award was presented to him when he appeared on The Chevy Chase Show. Paul Verhoeven accepted Worst Picture and Worst Director awards for the 1995 film Showgirls, at the awards ceremony at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. Verhoeven became the first recipient to claim his award in person at the awards ceremony. In 1998, Brian Helgeland accepted his award for Worst Screenplay for his work on the film The Postman. John J.B. Wilson presented Helgeland with the trophy at the recipient's Finestkind Productions office at Warner Bros.

Tom Green's 2001 film Freddy Got Fingered won in five categories at the 22nd Golden Raspberry Awards. Green had to be dragged off of the stage while accepting one of his awards because he would not stop playing the harmonica. At the 24th Golden Raspberry Awards, Ben Affleck was recognized in the Worst Actor category for his work on films Gigli, Daredevil, and Paycheck. In early March 2004, Affleck joked on the radio, complaining he was "stiffed" because he had not been given his Worst Actor trophy. On March 16, 2004, Affleck was presented with his trophy in an appearance on Larry King Live. The 2004 film Catwoman received multiple dishonors at the 25th Golden Raspberry Awards, including Worst Picture, Worst Director, Worst Actress and Worst Screenplay. Screenwriter Michael Ferris accepted his Worst Screenplay award, and Halle Berry attended the ceremony and accepted her award for Worst Actress while holding her Academy Award for her performance in Monster's Ball in one hand and her Golden Raspberry Award trophy in the other. Sandra Bullock appeared at the 30th Golden Raspberry Awards to get her Worst Actress and Worst Screen Couple awards for All About Steve. Bullock won the Best Actress Academy Award the next night for The Blind Side.

History

Bill Cosby was recognized at the 8th Golden Raspberry Awards with awards Worst Picture, Worst Screenplay, and Worst Actor, for the 1987 film Leonard Part 6.[1][2] Cosby became the first recipient to claim an award.[2][3] Cosby's trophy was worth $1.97.[4] "I said to my publicist when I got the word, 'I want my Golden Raspberry and if it isn't golden, I'm going to the press.' My publicist called back and said they were upset, that they said they were just a little outfit operating out of one room. They tried to cop out. But if you take a big name and you say 'worst,' you have to perform. So they came up with the trophies and I got them on a show on the Fox network. It was a lot of fun to do, because they weren't serious and had never been called on it by anyone who got a Razzie," said Cosby.[5] Arrangements were made to present Cosby with his awards on a late-night program on the Fox Network.[6] Fox made Cosby's awards out of 24-carat gold and Italian marble, which cost almost $30,000.[6] He later showed his trophy on The Tonight Show.[7]

Tom Selleck accepted his award for Worst Supporting Actor for his role in the 1992 film Christopher Columbus: The Discovery.[8] He portrayed the character of King Ferdinand of Spain in the film.[8] His award was presented to him when he appeared on The Chevy Chase Show.[9]

Paul Verhoeven accepted Worst Picture and Worst Director awards for the 1995 film Showgirls, at the awards ceremony at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel.[6][10] The audience gave Verhoeven two standing ovations after he told them he was driven out of Holland for being "sick and perverted and disgusting".[6][10] He said he was glad he came to the United States and won an award for this work,[6] "When I was making movies in Holland, they were blasted by critics as decadent, perverted and sleazy. Then I moved to the United States," said Verhoeven as the audience laughed.[10] He commented, "I had the worst thing happen to me today. I got seven awards for being the worst, and it was more fun than reading the reviews (for Showgirls) in September," said Verhoeven while smiling at the audience.[10] Verhoeven became the first recipient to claim his award in person at the awards ceremony.[10]

In 1998, Brian Helgeland accepted his award for Worst Screenplay for his work on the film The Postman.[11] Helgeland also won the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay for L.A. Confidential that same weekend,[12] and wanted to put his Oscar and his Razzie side-by-side to remind him of "the quixotic nature of Hollywood".[13] Awards founder John J.B. Wilson presented Helgeland with the trophy at the recipient's Finestkind Productions office at Warner Bros.[11] Helgeland read from a prepared statement, "I'm sure it would sound better in Latin, but it is truly better to be ridiculed than ignored. Indifference is the enemy and with this Razzie indifference has been defeated. My films are like my children, each special in some way. In the case of 'The Postman,' I was perhaps an errant parent and therefore I am to blame. I wish, like Scrooge upon seeing Marley, I could blame it on a badly digested piece of meat. Alas, the blame rests upon my shoulders and I accept this award with humility, penance and above all, the sense of humor with which it is given. If I've learned anything from the year 1997, it is to not take any one film too seriously. I wish to thank John Wilson and I look forward to a time when the Razzies are given their own proper ceremony and national telecast. The world will be a better place with a few more laughs in it."[11]

At the 20th Golden Raspberry Awards, the 1999 film Wild Wild West was recognized as the worst in five categories, including Worst Picture, Worst Screen Couple, Worst Director, Worst Screenplay, and Worst Original Song.[14] Robert Conrad was in attendance at the awards ceremony,[15] and collected the Golden Raspberry Award trophies.[16] Conrad starred in the television series The Wild Wild West as James West, the same character portrayed by actor Will Smith in the film version.[15] He attended the awards ceremony because he disliked the film and wanted to publicly criticize it.[17]

Barry Pepper won a Worst Supporting Actor award for his work in the 2000 film Battlefield Earth.[18] Though Pepper did not accept his award because he had not been invited to the ceremony, he stated he would have accepted it if he had been invited.[18] "I was hoping somebody would invite me. I would've gone and accepted it. That would've been so much fun. My agent probably would have told me not to," said Pepper.[18] John Wilson delivered Battlefield Earth's screenwriter J.D. Shapiro his award for Worst Screenplay at Mark Ebner's radio program.[19] Shapiro commented that Travolta had called the script "the Schindler's List of science fiction".[19] In 2010, Shapiro appeared in the 30th Golden Raspberry Awards to pick Battlefield Earth's award for Worst Picture of the Decade, and during his speech even quoted a review by The New York Times: "Battlefield Earth is about the extinction of the human race, and after seeing this movie I'm all for it".[20]

Tom Green's 2001 film Freddy Got Fingered won in five categories at the 22nd Golden Raspberry Awards, including Worst Actor, Worst Director, Worst Picture, Worst Screen Couple, and Worst Screenplay.[21] Green attended the awards in person, and brought with him a cheap red carpet which he unrolled as he entered the theater where the awards were being presented.[21] "I'd just like to say to all the other nominees in the audience, I don't think that I deserve it any more than the rest of you. I'd like to say that. I don't think that it would be true, though," said Green.[21] He had to be dragged off of the stage while accepting one of his awards because he would not stop playing the harmonica.[21][22]

At the 24th Golden Raspberry Awards, Ben Affleck was recognized in the Worst Actor category for his work on films Gigli, Daredevil, and Paycheck.[14] In early March 2004, Affleck joked on the radio, complaining he was "stiffed" because he had not been given his Worst Actor trophy.[23] He said he should have at least been given "a golden sack of grapes".[23] On March 16, 2004, Affleck was presented with his trophy in an appearance on Larry King Live.[23] He commented, "It's a little cheap," and proceeded to pull the trophy apart while on the television program.[23] The Golden Raspberry Award Foundation put the trophy up for bidding on eBay, where bidding rose to $967.97 from its initial $4.89 within 24 hours.[23] "This is a classic case of life handing us lemons, our turning around and making lemonade. In this case, Razzberry lemonade," said John J.B. Wilson.[23] The income of the trophy's sale was used to rent the Ivar Theater for the 2005 Razzies.[24]

Bullock accepting her Razzie award in 2010

The 2004 film Catwoman received multiple dishonors at the 25th Golden Raspberry Awards, including Worst Picture, Worst Director, Worst Actress and Worst Screenplay.[25] Screenwriter Michael Ferris accepted his award,[26][27] and Halle Berry accepted her award for Worst Actress.[25] Holding her Academy Award for her performance in Monster's Ball in one hand and her Golden Raspbery Award trophy in the other, Berry said to the audience at the ceremony, "Thank you so much. I never in my life thought I would be up here."[25] She parodied her performance when she accepted her Academy Award, and thanked the film's director and her manager, "He loves me so much that he convinces me to do projects even when he knows that it is shit."[25] Julie Newmar, who played Catwoman in the Batman TV series, received that film's Worst Picture award, and was told that she was the "best Catwoman".[28]

After her Worst Actress nomination for All About Steve, Sandra Bullock expressed interest in coming up to pick up her award.[29] She eventually won, and showed up stating "I didn't realize that, in Hollywood, all you had to do was say you'd show up, and then you'd get the award. If I'd known that, I would have said I was appearing at the Oscars a long time ago." Bullock also brought DVD copies of All About Steve to the audience, declaring that the voters should watch the movie to see if she was really the worst performer, implying the Razzie voters cast ballots for her just to see if she appeared at the ceremony.[30] Bullock also said that winning Worst Screen Couple - along with Bradley Cooper - showed the voters did not watch the movie, since All About Steve is about a stalker and "that doesn't really set up the premise for a loving couple".[31] Bullock also said she was escaping from a charity dinner with Jeffrey Katzenberg for the awards, and had to get there as soon as possible, "because you know, it's Jeffrey Katzenberg and he can basically prevent me from ever working again".[32] John Wilson declared that her performance "was much better than the one you're about to see on the DVD".[20]
