Paris Hilton and Mike Myers have swept the top prizes at the Razzies awards.
The 29th edition of the award show, held on the eve of the Oscars, sees members of the Golden Raspberry Award Foundation reveal their loathing for the worst performances in Hollywood over the past year.
The Love Guru picked up three Razzies on the night as it was named the worst picture and worst screenplay and its star Mike Myers was named the year's worst actor.
Heiress Paris Hilton suffered most on the night with three awards for her two films: The Hottie and the Nottie and Repo! The Genetic Opera.
The Simple Life star picked up the worst actress and worst supporting actress gongs for the two films and was also named as part of the worst screen couple alongside her fellow actors Christine Lakin and Joel David Moore in the Hottie and the Nottie.
Uwe Boll picked up the worst director prize for his three movies this year - In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale, 1968: Tunnel Rats and Postal.
Speaking about the winners on the night, Razzies founder John Wilson said Hilton and Boll could make a formidable best of the worst partnership.
He said: "She is the 21st century Zsa Zsa Gabor. She is famous for who she hangs out with. She's not famous for any talent she has yet exhibited," Wilson said. "She may end up working with Uwe Boll. She could be the head vampire in 'Bloodrayne 3.'"
