Criticism

The nomination of child actress Ryan Kiera Armstrong in Worst Actress for her performance in Firestarter caused backlash, alongside further criticism that child actors in the past had their careers harmed by being nominated at the Razzies, such as Gary Coleman for On the Right Track (1981), Macaulay Culkin for Richie Rich (1994) and Jake Lloyd for Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace (1999). Fellow child actor Julian Hilliard said that the Razzies "crossed a line", and the nomination put Armstrong at the risk of "bullying or worse".[3][5]

Razzies co-founder John J. B. Wilson told BuzzFeed News that among the group's voters, Armstrong had come in fifth place out of five available spots, and that despite some concern due to her age (12 at the time of nomination), organizers approved the nomination on the grounds that Armstrong was a professional actress with prior experience. Wilson suggested that the level of criticism the nomination received was "overblown", but also conceded, "The intent was to be funny. In this particular instance, we seem to have misstepped very badly. I would admit that".[6] Three days after the nomination was announced, Armstrong was removed from the ballot. Wilson issued a public apology and announced that the organization would no longer allow individuals under 18 to be nominated in any category.[3]

Notes
  1. Nomination retracted.[3]
  2. Considered a remake of Blonde, a 2001 TV miniseries.[4]
