Every year since 1997 I have interviewed the John Wilson, Head Berry and founder of the Golden Raspberry Awards Foundation. That’s the group that bestows the Razzie, which singles out the worst of the worst of Hollywood, providing a much needed tonic to that >other< awards show that happens the following day. The one with the little golden man.
The Razzie, I pointed out to Wilson during this year’s interview, is the only show biz award given strictly on merit. Or lack thereof. He gifted me with this story in response.
My full interview with Wilson will post in a week or so, but until then, here’s Wilson describing his close encounter with Madonna’s publicist. For more info about this year’s nominees, and information about how to become a voting member of the Golden Raspberry Awards Foundation, click here.
