STALLONE IS BIG WINNER OF 3 RAZZIES
The film industry took a pie in the face at the sixth annual Golden Raspberry Awards, where Sylvester Stallone, his wife and brother were the favored targets.
Stallone’s clan rode to the peak of Hollywood shamedom in the movie “Rambo: First Blood, Part II,” which was voted 1985’s worst film by the 170-member Golden Raspberry Award Foundation.
Paced by dancers who couldn’t stay on their feet and presented by outrageous impersonations such as Brooke Shields with a mustache, the awards were announced Sunday night before an audience of about 150 persons at the Morgan Wixson Theater in Santa Monica.
The Italian Stallion took the Razzies for worst actor, director and screenplay, his actress-wife Brigitte Nielsen won for worst supporting actress and new star, and brother Frank Stallone’s tune “Peace in Our Life” was picked for worst song.
The Stallone family sweep replaces John and Bo Derek as the favorite target of the association, which presents yellow, plastic raspberry trophies.
“He is the first to win three Razzies in one night, beating two in one night won by Pia Zadora and Bo Derek,” Wilson said.
