Cruise... big ole' target for Razzies



Cruise was nominated for Worst Actor for "War of the Worlds" by the Golden Raspberry Foundation Monday, whose Razzies dishonor the worst in film.

Cruise was also nominated for "Most Tiresome Tabloid Target," a new category created by the Razzies "saluting the celebs we're all sick and tired of!" Cruise was cited for his "anti-psychiatry rant," his romance with Katie Holmes and for the Oprah incident.

"Son of the Mask" earned a leading eight Razzie nominations. Jenny McCarthy got three Razzie nods. She's up for Worst Actress, Worst Screen Couple (for "McCarthy and anyone dumb enough to befriend her or date her") and Worst Screenplay.

Up against McCarthy for Worst Actress are Jessica Alba, Hilary Duff, Jennifer Lopez and Tara Reid.

Paris Hilton was nominated for Worst Supporting Actress for "House of Wax", and also got a nod for "Most Tiresome Tabloid Target."

Nominees for the Razzies were determined by mailing ballots to more than 725 film professionals, film journalists and film fans from 41 U.S. states and 15 foreign countries. The Razzies will be announced March 4, the day before the Oscars.
