Maybe flick should have been I Know Who Killed My Career

(Newser) – Playing multiple characters in a single flick earned Lindsay Lohan and Eddie Murphy multiple Razzie nods this year, the AP reports. Lohan nabbed a worst actress nomination for each of the characters she portrays in split-personality thriller I Know Who Killed Me, and their (lack of) onscreen synergy resulted in another nom for worst screen couple.

Killed Me got nine nominations overall, adding “worst picture,” “worst screenplay,” and “worst director” among other anti-accolades. But Murphy, for playing multiple roles and co-writing Norbit, set a personal Razzie record with five nominations: worst actor for Norbit, Norbit’s wife, and an Asian male character, worst screen couple for Mr. and Mrs. Norbit, and worst screenplay.
