Controversy

The Worst Actress nomination of then twelve-year-old Ryan Kiera Armstrong for her performance in the Firestarter remake was the subject of backlash, alongside further criticism that child actors in the past had their careers harmed upon being nominated at the Razzies; such as Gary Coleman for On the Right Track (1981), Macaulay Culkin for Richie Rich (1994), and Jake Lloyd for Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace (1999). Fellow child actor Julian Hilliard said the Razzies "crossed a line" and that the nomination put Armstrong at the risk of "bullying or worse". Drew Barrymore, a former child actress and star of the original Firestarter film (1984), denounced the decision as well, stating: "I don't like it... Because she is younger and it is bullying, and we do want to be cautious about how we speak to or about people because it encourages other people to join on that bandwagon, and I'm glad to see people didn't jump on the 'let's make fun of her' wave and instead said 'This isn't right'." [8] [10] [11] [12] [13]

In the wake of the controversy, Razzies co-founder John J. B. Wilson explained that among the group's voters, Armstrong had come in fifth place out of five available spots and that, despite some concern due to her age, organizers approved the nomination on the grounds that Armstrong was a professional actress with prior experience. Wilson suggested that the level of criticism the nomination received was "overblown", but added: "The intent was to be funny. In this particular instance, we seem to have misstepped very badly. I would admit that." [14] Three days after the nomination was announced, Armstrong was removed from the ballot. Wilson issued a public apology and announced that the organization would no longer allow children to be nominated in any category. [8]

In another surprise, for the first time in Razzies history, the organization gave itself an award: Worst Actress. After enduring the controversy of initially nominating Armstrong, the organization put themselves in Armstrong's place on the ballot; it won by a landslide. [1] [8] [15]

Wilson and Mo Murphy, the Razzie Awards' satirical annual ceremony is preceded by its opposite, the Academy Awards, by four decades. The term raspberry is used in its irreverent sense, as in "blowing a raspberry". The statuette is a golf ball-sized raspberry atop a Super 8mm film reel atop a 35-millimeter film core with brown wood shelf paper glued and wrapped around it—sitting atop a jar lid spray-painted gold. The Golden Raspberry Foundation has claimed that the award "encourages well-known filmmakers and top-notch performers to own their bad."
