Mike Myers, Paris Hilton big ‘winners’ at Razzies
We can’t argue with these. Love Guru, Hottie & the Nottie – both piles of shit. Just looking at the trailers should have clued people that they were crap.
It was a night for neon pink bow ties and words like “disaster” and “monstrosity.” It was not the night, however, to be Paris Hilton, Mike Myers or Uwe Boll. The 29th Annual Golden Raspberry Awards honored the worst film achievements of the year in a small theater in Hollywood on February 21. The night opened with a parody of the “Mamma Mia” song, “Dancing Queen,” and ended with “Love Guru” being named worst picture. – From CNN
Mike Myers really did lose his mojo in 2008. Myers and his comedy “The Love Guru,” which won few fans at box offices, were named worst actor and worst picture of 2008 at the Razzie Awards on Saturday, one day before the world’s top film honors, the Oscars, are given out in Hollywood. The comedy featuring Myers as a spiritual healer was also given the Razzie for the worst screenplay of 2008. – From Reuters
Not only were they this year’s leading nominees, but Mike Myers and Paris Hilton were also the top “winners” at Saturday’s Razzies, dis-honoring Hollywood worst achievements of the past year in an offbeat ceremony traditionally held a day before the Oscars. Not that either attended the ceremony, but both the comic actor and the hotel heiress nabbed three Golden Raspberry Awards: Meyers, because his The Love Guru was the worst picture; he was the worst actor in it; and he co-wrote the script, selected as worst of the year. Hilton’s citations were for worst actress for The Hottie and the Nottie, worst supporting actress for Repo! The Genetic Opera and worst screen couple with either of her Hottie costars, Christine Lakin or Joel David Moore. – From People
