39th Golden Raspberry Awards

The 39th Golden Raspberry Awards was an awards ceremony that honored the worst the film industry had to offer in 2018. The Golden Raspberry Awards, also known as the Razzies, are awarded based on votes from members of the Golden Raspberry Foundation. The nominees were announced on January 21, 2019[1] and the winners were announced on February 23, 2019.[2][3]

On January 31, 2019, the ceremony was accused of rigging the vote tallies for its nominees. For example, Jamie Dornan (Fifty Shades Freed) and Kevin Spacey (Billionaire Boys Club) received enough votes for Worst Actor, but neither were included on the final nominee list.[4]
