AceShowbiz - "Cats" has dominated the 2020 Golden Raspberry Awards, picking up six trophies including Worst Film.
Tom Hooper's flop musical also landed him the Worst Director dishonour, while also picking up Worst Screenplay and Worst Supporting Actor and Actress awards (James Corden and Rebel Wilson).
This year's actual Golden Raspberry Awards, scheduled for Saturday (March 14), were scrapped as a result of the growing coronavirus pandemic.
Organizers had planned to press ahead with the irreverent annual Los Angeles ceremony, commonly known as the Razzie Awards, but the weekend prizegiving had to be ditched after Mayor Eric Garcetti introduced restrictions on crowd sizes in public to curb the spread of COVID-19.
The limitations led to the shut down of The Barnsdall Theatre, where the Razzies were due to be held.
The full list of 2020 Razzie 'winners' is:
- WORST PICTURE: "Cats"
- WORST ACTOR: John Travolta, "The Fanatic" and "Trading Paint"
- WORST ACTRESS: Hilary Duff, "The Haunting of Sharon Tate"
- WORST SUPPORTING ACTRESS: Rebel Wilson, "Cats"
