Razzies noms are in...

It’s the opposite of the Oscars. The Razzies give awards for the worst movies of the year, and this year’s nominations have Lindsay Lohan’s I Know Who Killed Me in the lead with a whopping nine nods. On the Razzie site, it called I Know Who Killed Me a “Lindsay Lohan ‘vehicle’ that proved as dangerous for its star as any car she ever ran off the road.” The movie’s up for Worst Picture, Worst Screenplay, Worst Director and Worst Screen Couple (this is a double nom for Lohan as she played opposite herself as twins… she was much better the first time she did this in The Parent Trap when she was young and still had potential). But that’s not all, in addition to the double couple nominations, each of Lohan’s twins are individually nominated in the Worst Actress category, this feat’s a first in Razzie history. Similarly, Eddie Murphy’s multiple characters in Norbit got nominations for Worst Supporting Actor, Worst Supporting Actress, Worst Actor and a double one in the Worst Couple category. I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry was also in the mix, being nominated for Worst Actor (Adam Sandler), Worst Supporting Actor (the annoying Kevin James), Worst Supporting Actress (Jessica Biel) and Worst Screen Couple (Sandler and EITHER James OR Biel). Other noteworthy nominations includes the very diverse Nicolas Cage with a three-for-one in the Worst Actor category (getting nominations for Ghost Rider, National Treasure: Book of Secrets and Next). Jessica Alba got the same deal in the Worst Actress category (for Awake, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer and Good Luck Chuck) AND she also won a nod in the Worst Screen Couple category (with either Hayden Christensen, Ioan Gruffudd or Dane Cook).
