Award Shows

Every year, organizations from around the USA (mostly centered in Hollywood) gather to recognize achievements in the motion picture industry. They recognize individuals and teams who they feel have delivered a truly outstanding experience with their film. Whether it's awarding a director, an actor, an actress, a costume designer or someone else, these awards have gone on to garner lasting fame for those that have received these awards.

On the flip side, there are some organizations, like the Razzies, which award the exact opposite - the worst of the worst for that year in motion pictures. Many shun these ceremonies, but those that accept the award have become bigger stars because of it (Halle Berry, for example, famously accepted her award in person for Catwoman - and has gone on to achieve even more fame because of it).
