The Razzies were announced this morning, and there really aren't any surprises amongst the nominees. The Razzies are awards that signify exactly the opposite of what the Oscars represent. They are held the Saturday before the Oscars (held on a Sunday night).

There might be a little more to Regis Philbin’s retirement announcement than what we were previously led to believe. Supposedly Regis said he had been thinking about his retirement for awhile, but the truth might be a little different. Sources say he was trying to negotiate a new contract, and that show execs wouldn’t give him the salary he was used to or wanted. Interesting.

Friends near Regis say he wanted to stay on the show if he got paid, but the execs weren’t having it.
