With these two stinkers so dominating the winners list, there was little room left for the other contenders. “Zoolander No. 2” had led with a staggering nine nominations but ended up with only one win: Worst Supporting Actress (Kristen Wiig).
Among the other films in the running for Razzies, “Dirty Grandpa” made a clean getaway, losing all six of its bids as did five-time contenders “Gods of Egypt” and “Independence Day: Resurgence.”
