Blonde and Elvis were among the winners at the 2023 Golden Raspberry Awards.

The awards, known as the Razzies, take place the weekend of the Academy Awards and celebrate the very ‘worst’ in film.

While many of the films nominated did not make it near this year’s Oscars, there is some crossover, with Ana de Armas’s Marilyn Monroe drama Blonde picking up the gong for Worst Picture and Worst Screenplay. De Armas is nominated for Best Actress at the Oscars for her performance in the film.

This year’s Razzies were mired with controversy following backlash for their decision to nominate 12-year-old Firestarter star Ryan Kiera Armstrong for Worst Actress.

Writing in The Independent, Jacob Stolworthy said that “to nominate an Oscar winner, or someone with proven bankable success to their name, is acceptable; to highlight the performance of someone as young as 12 is not just tacky – it’s fairly reprehensible”.

Following the backlash, the Razzies apologised and removed Armstrong’s name from the public ballot, replacing it with the organisation itself, which won the award for Worst Actress. Going forward, there will be a lower age restriction of 18 on nominees.
