Oddly Enough Article | Reuters.co.uk: "LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Beating such established Hollywood hunks as Colin Farrell and Vin Diesel, U.S. President George W. Bush has won the Golden Raspberry Award on Saturday for worst actor of the year for his appearance in Michael Moore's documentary 'Fahrenheit 9/11'.
Bush, two members of his administration, Britney Spears and the storybook about a goat that the president was reading to children as the September 11 attacks were taking place all took top honours at the 'Razzie' awards on Sunday, now in their 25th year.
'Catwoman', starring 2002 best actress Oscar winner Halle Berry, tied with 'Fahrenheit 9/11' by scooping up four 'Razzies' -- worst picture, worst directing, worst screenplay and worst performance by an actress for Berry for her 'berry bad' work.
John Wilson, founder of the nonprofit Golden Raspberry Award Foundation that gives out 'Hollywood's least coveted trophies' on the eve of the Oscars ceremony, said Moore's anti-Bush documentary allowed the foundation's nearly 700 members to do some Bush bashing of their own.
The president not only was named worst male actor in a leading role, he also won for being half of the year's worst screen couple when paired with either Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice or 'My Pet Goat', the book he was reading to schoolchildren on the morning of September 11, 2001."
