How about that Sandra Bullock taking home...the Razzie?

For worst actress?

And showing up to collect it?

I have a newfound respect for Sandra Bullock now. You have to be able to laugh at yourself, to acknowledge mistakes, to be straightfoward with the public and, in so many words, admit you did something just for a quick paycheque.

Bullock surprised many by collecting her Razzie at the 2010 Razzie awards ceremony, held the night before the Oscars. The movie in question for which she was "honoured" got a whopping 6% approval rating over at RottenTomatoes.com (that's bad). I don't know how many people actually saw it, and I admit I had to look it up to be reminded of the horrible commericals that aired before its release. But just to make sure everyone who showed up at the Razzies did get a chance to see it, she brought a DVD copy for every person to take home.

Give credit to Bullock. Backstage after she accepted the trophy for best actress, she said she'll take her Oscar and display it right beside her Razzie, noting you have to take the good with the bad.

Anyway, the Razzies had a fun time unveiling special categories for other "winners", including Worst Picture of the Decade (Battlefield Earth, a truly awful film. Nominated with classics such as Gigli and Freddy Got Fingered) and Worst Actor of the Decade (Eddie Murphy, for making pieces of sh*t like Pluto Nash, Meet Dave and Norbit in the last ten years). And for 2009, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen took home Worst Picture and Director. You can't help but laugh when you read the nominees and winners, and obviously Bullock gets a kick out of it, too.
