Posted February 24, 200817 yr Troubled actress Lindsay Lohan has entered the Hollywood record books after her latest film has won a staggering EIGHT Golden Raspberry Awards. Her campy horror film, I Know Who Killed Me, which has never been released here, surpassed the record seven wins previously held by Battleship Earth and Showgirls. Eddie Murphy also set a new record, as the first performer ever to win three of the four Worst Acting trophies in the same year. I Know Who Killed Me, shot around Lohan's first of three stints in rehab last year, was named Worst Film of the year. She picked up two wins as Worst Actress for playing two characters who may or may not have been twins. Her dual roles also got Razzied for a scene in which the two characters appear together, as Worst Screen Couple. The film was also named Worst Remake or Rip-off, for paying dubious homage to Hostel, Saw and The Patty Duke Show. Chris Silverstone was named Worst Director and Jeffrey Hammond won his Razzie in the Worst Screenplay category. The film, which cost an estimated £6.1 million to make but earned less than £3.75 million at the American box-office, also spawned a new category, which it won for Worst Excuse for a Horror Movie. Eddie Murphy also scored three hits for the comedy Norbit, which starred Thandie Newton. Murphy took out the Worst Actor, Worst Supporting Actress (for playing his own wife) and Worst Supporting Actor categories. The one winner not connected to either of the big-winning films was a sequel to an Eddie Murphy movie, Daddy Day Camp, which was named Worst Prequel or Sequel. The Golden Raspberry, or Razzie Awards, are presented each year on the eve of the Oscars, to poke fun at the film industry's failures. Unlike the Academy Awards and other prestigious events, there is no red carpet or borrowed posh frocks and jewellery. This year's awards, determined by 750 voters in the United States and 18 other countries, were held at the Abracadabra Theatre in Santa Monica, with none of the winners showing up. In fact, only two winners have ever turned up to collect the tacky, gold spray-painted £2.49 pounds trophies Halle Berry, when she "won" for Catwoman three years ago, and Tom Green, a 2002 loser for Freddy Got Fingered. Sylvester Stallone is the all-time biggest male loser, with 30 nominations and 10 wins, and Madonna leads the field for women, with 15 nominations and nine wins. The Razzies were founded in 1980 by John Wilson, author of Everything I Know I Learned at the Movies. Source : Mail on Sunday
