Winning Worst Picture and Worst Screenplay

Winning Worst Picture and Worst Screenplay is Netflix’s Blonde which stars Ana de Armas, as the Razzie was given because the film is “misogynistic, salacious and fallacious… which shamelessly exploits the memory of the late Marilyn Monroe.”

“They publicly apologized to the actress, changed the rules for anyone under 18, rescinded the nomination, and put themselves in her place on the ballot, which won by a landslide,” states the info.
