Stars Win Oscars, Lose Razzies: Hollywood's Double Act

0:00On this March 12th, here's what's making entertainment headlines. Some top Hollywood stars have pulled off the ultimate career hat trick by winning both Oscars for great work and razzies for their flops. The Oscars celebrate the best in film, while the razzies poke fun at the worst movies and performances each year. Believe it or not, 20 actors have nabbed both, from legends to modern favorites. Take Tom Hanks, who grabbed back-to-back best actor Oscars for Philadelphia and Forrest Gump in the 1990s, then earned a razzie last year, for his role as Colonel Tom Parker in Elvis. Jerry Leto won supporting actor for Dallas Baris Club in 2014, but later got hit with razzies for House of Gucci and Morbius. Even Leonardo DiCaprio, Oscar winner for the Revenant, picked up an early razzie for the man in the Iron Mask. A few stars showed up in person to grab their razzies, turning it into a fun moment. Sandra Bullock won worst actress for all about Steve. The same weekend she took home a best actress Oscar for the blind side.

1:03Halle Berry, the first black woman to win best actress for Monsters Ball, accepted her razzie for Cow Woman with a hilarious speech thanking the studio for the awful film. Older icons aren't immune either. Marlon Brando got a best actor Oscar for on the waterfront, but a razzie for the island of Dr. Moro. Al Pacino's Oscar for Scent of a Woman contrasts with his razzie for Jack and Jill, and Lawrence Olivier won for Hamlet yet razzies for the jazz. Singer and Inchan, lately, Joaquin Phoenix won best actor for Joker, but shared a razzie with Lady Gaga for Joker, folia do. As we gear up for the 2026 Oscars, it just shows how even the biggest names can swing from glory to goats in Hollywood.
