Eddie Murphy was one of the leading vote getters for the Razzies, awards given to Hollywood's worst performances.
Murphy got the nominations for his film "Norbit", receiving eight nominations in all. Five of the nominations were for Murphy alone, more than anyone has received in a single year.
Along with worst picture, Murphy was also nominated as the worst actor in the title role, that of Norbit's wife. He was additionally nominated for worst supporting actor after playing an Asian man, as well as worst screen couple. To supplement the nominations he received for his poor acting, Murphy was given a screenplay nomination for his role in writing the film.
"We decided that each of his characters was so offensive that he deserved individual nominations," said Razzies founder John Wilson.
