The  Academy Awards  and the Golden Raspberry Awards (a.k.a. the Razzie Awards) exist on opposite ends of the award show spectrum. The Oscars celebrate a handful of the year's best work in film, while the  controversial Razzies pan the worst movies and performances  of the year.

Among the celebrities who have  received nominations from the parody award show  over the years, the list includes some of the most acclaimed and well-known performers to ever grace the big screen — many of whom are Oscar winners.

It took until 2023 for Best Actor winner Hanks to become a Razzie winner after he picked up both worst supporting actor and worst screen couple (for his prosthetics and accent) for his role as Colonel Tom Parker in the 2022 biopic  Elvis The film itself was nominated for eight Oscars at the 2023 Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor for the man who  portrays the King of Rock 'n' Roll  himself,  Austin Butler .

In 2022,  Jared Leto  — who won a Best Supporting Actor Oscar in 2014 for his work in  Dallas Buyers Club  —  scored his first Razzie  for his supporting role as Paolo Gucci in the polarizing  House of Gucci .

The actor won again in 2023 for worst actor in the Marvel film  Morbius .

Glenn Close

She technically doesn't have either yet, but somehow in 2021,  Glenn Close  pulled off being nominated for both an Oscar  and  a Razzie for the same supporting role in Netflix's  Hillbilly Elegy .

The film — which follows a Yale Law student who is drawn back to his Appalachian hometown and confronts his strained relationships with his mother and grandmother (played by Close) — was largely panned by critics and received a 25 percent score on  Rotten Tomatoes , though viewers gave it an 82 percent audience score. Close didn't win either award.

Mel Gibson 's 2017 Razzie was actually a  good  thing: He won the Razzie Redeemer Award for his directing work on  Hacksaw Ridge . The actor was nominated for Best Director at the Oscars that year for the same film. Gibson previously earned two Academy Awards (Best Picture and Best Director) for 1996's  Braveheart He was recognized at the Razzies again in 2018 for his worst supporting actor-winning role in  Daddy's Home 2 .

Ben Affleck  won his first Oscar in 1998 for co-writing the  Good Will Hunting  screenplay with  frequent collaborator and BFF Matt Damon . In 2013, he nabbed a win for Best Picture as a producer on  Argo . In between that, he was named worst actor at the Razzies for  three  of his 2003 films,  Daredevil Gigli  and  Paycheck .

In 2017, he and his on-screen partner  Henry Cavill  were deemed the worst screen combo for their  Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

The Revenant  star didn't  take home an Oscar  until 2016, but DiCaprio claimed the Razzie for worst screen couple fairly early on in his career for 1998's  The Man in the Iron Mask,  where he portrayed both King Louis XIV of France and his imprisoned twin brother. His double-duty performance was memorable enough to edge out the stiff competition in that year's Razzie category, which also included Affleck and  Liv Tyler 's on-screen chemistry (or lack thereof) in  Armageddon .

Sandra Bullock

Sandra Bullock  showed up at the 2010 Golden Raspberry Award ceremony with a cart full of copies of  All About Steve , the film that earned her the award for worst actress. In her acceptance speech,  captured in a video , Bullock challenged the audience to take their DVDs home and " really  watch" her performance.

"I will show up next year if you promise to watch the movie, I mean really watch it, and really consider if it was really and truly the worst performance. And if you're willing to watch it, then I will come back next year, and I will give back the Razzie," she said.

The next day,  The Blind Side  star took home a statuette for Best Actress at the 82nd Academy Awards.

Al Pacino 's work in  Scent of a Woman  won him Best Actor at the Oscars in 1993. Unfortunately, his choice to appear in  Adam Sandler 's critically panned 2011 film  Jack and Jill  resulted in Razzies for worst supporting actor and worst screen couple.

Like Bullock,  the  Monster's Ball  Oscar winner  had the gumption to personally accept her Golden Raspberry Award in a  video shared by the Razzie Channel . Berry took to the Razzie award stage with her Oscar in hand, bursting into fake tears before delivering an eight-minute-long speech about her award-winning performance in  Catwoman .

"I have a lot of people to thank because you don't win a Razzie without a lot of help from a lot of people," Berry said. "First of all, I want to thank Warner Brothers — thank you for putting me in a piece of s---, God-awful movie."

Liza Minnelli

In her  Oscar acceptance speech  for Best Actress in 1973,  Liza Minnelli  called  playing Sally Bowles in  Cabaret  "one of the happiest times of my whole life." Winning the Razzie in 1988 for her lead roles in both  Arthur 2: On the Rocks  and  Rent-a-Cop  was a decidedly less happy experience.

Laurence Olivier won Best Actor for 1948's  Hamlet , in addition to a 1944 Academy Honorary Award for  Henry V  (and was even celebrated with an honorary award for his entire body of work at the 1979 Oscars ceremony). However, the acclaimed actor also has the dubious honor of holding two Razzie Awards, one for worst actor in 1981's  Inchon  and a worst supporting actor Golden Raspberry for 1980's  The Jazz Singer .

Kevin Costner  earned the Oscar for Best Director, Best Picture and a nomination for Best Actor for 1990's  Dances with Wolves . Critics were less impressed with his performances in  Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves Wyatt Earp  and  The Postman , all of which earned him worst actor awards at the Razzies.

Prince  won the Academy Award in 1985 for Best Music, thanks to  Purple Rain . In 1987, the Razzies dubbed "Love or Money" from  Under the Cherry Moon  the worst original song. The film also helped the late musician — who later  died at 57  in April 2016 — claim the awards for worst director and worst actor.

Sofia Coppola

Sofia Coppola 's infamously bad acting in  The Godfather: Part III  resulted in Razzie wins for worst supporting actress and worst new star. However, the writer-director was redeemed at the 2004 Oscars when she nabbed Best Original Screenplay for  Lost in Translation .

Faye Dunaway  has an Oscar and two Razzie wins to her name. The 1976 film  Network  earned her Best Actress, but it was her later roles in 1981's  Mommie Dearest  and 1993's  The Temp  caught the attention of the Golden Raspberry Award Foundation members.

Acting legend  Marlon Brando  was first recognized with an Oscar win for 1954's  On the Waterfront . He famously declined the award for Best Actor in 1973, sending actress  Sacheen Littlefeather  to the ceremony in his place in  protest of Hollywood 's abysmal portrayal of Native Americans in film. Less nobly, Brando gave a worst supporting actor-worthy performance in 1996's  The Island of Dr. Moreau .

Charlton Heston

Ben-Hur  (1959) earned  Charlton Heston  Best Actor at the Oscars. Fans of the late actor are probably less inclined to remember his 2002 Razzie win for worst supporting actor in  Planet of the Apes  (1968),  Cats & Dogs  (2001) and  Town & Country  (2001).
