Razzie Nominations Are In

Everything that celebrities do will either earn the fame and fortune or humiliation and ridicule. One of the biggest things that determine this are the movies that they choose to play in and how well or horrible they did in those movies. If celebrities get nominated for the Oscars than you know they did a great job – but if they get nominated for the Razzies than humiliation is around the corner.
Leading the Razzies for 2009 is Mike Myers for his performance in ‘The Love Guru’. In fact ‘Guru’ managed to get seven Razzie nominations that included worst performances by Mike Myers, Jessica Alba, Ben Kingsley (who has been nominated for an Oscar), and Verne Troyer. It also received a nomination for worst picture.
The other nominees that have been nominated for worst picture include; ‘The Happening’, ‘Disaster Movie’, ‘In the Name of the King’, ‘Meet the Spartans’, ‘A Dungeon Siege Tale’, and ‘The Hottie & the Nottie’. The latter movie (which sounds like a porn film) starred Paris Hilton who was nominated for worst actress, worst screen couple with Joel David, and worst supporting actress for ‘Repo! The Genetic Opera’.
The Razzies will be presented on Saturday, February 21st one day before the Academy Awards. Check the rest of the Razzie nominations here.
