    Adam Sandler Sets New Razzies Record

    Adam Sandler can ditch the high heels. His movie Jack and Jill, in which he played the twin siblings in the leading roles, turned out to be a bigger drag than anyone expected.

    On Sunday night, the critical dud "won" 10 of the 12 Razzies for which it was nominated – a new Razzies record – being "dis-honored" in the categories of worst picture, actor and actress, supporting actress (David Spade as "Monica"), supporting actor (Al Pacino as himself), screen ensemble, director (Dennis Dugan), remake/rip-off (of Ed Wood's notorious Glen or Glenda), screen couple (Sandler and Katie Holmes and/or Al Pacino and/or himself).

    "It's not really a clean sweep," Razzies founder John Wilson tells PEOPLE, explaining that the 12 total nominations for the movie included more than one in the supporting acting categories. "So it will go into the record books with an asterisk."

    The previous record holder was 2007's I Know Who Killed Me, starring Lindsay Lohan. It took home eight Razzies, including two for Lohan, who played twins.

    With 657 voting members of the Golden Raspberry Award Foundation, the Razzies have been honoring the worst achievement in motion pictures for 32 years now.

    This year's ceremony kicked off something new by not taking place on the night before the Oscars, but on April Fools' Day, instead. It also returned to Magicopolis in Santa Monica, Calif., a combination theater, magic shop and children's birthday venue. READ MORE
