The Razzies’ Unique Tradition

Since their inception in 1980, the Razzies have offered a playful counterbalance to Hollywood’s more glamorous awards. Winners are “honored” with a gold spray-painted trophy worth $4.97, symbolizing the event’s lighthearted spirit.

The 45th Golden Raspberry Awards will take place on March 1, 2025, just one day before the Oscars. Love them or hate them, the Razzies are always good for sparking lively debates about the year’s most memorable misses.
