Halle Berry Set Her Catwoman Razzie On Fire After Accepting Award: “If You Can’t Be A Good Loser, Then You Don’t Deserve To Be A Good Winner”

Her 2004 superhero movie, 'Catwoman', was one of the worst movies of that year.

Halle Berry set her Razzie Award "on fire".

The 55-year-old actress won the Worst Actress gong at the parody awards ceremony for her performance in 2004's Catwoman and has now revealed what she did with her Razzie.

Speaking in Vanity Fair's 'Career Timeline' video interview, she said: "I went to the Razzie [Awards] because I feel like we all take ourselves so seriously.

"If we get an award, if we get the Oscar, we somehow are made to feel like we're somehow better than everybody else, but we're really not. You were just chosen that year by your peers, and you were acknowledged for doing what they considered stellar work … If you find yourself face to face with a Razzie, does that mean you're the worst actor there ever was? Probably not.

"You just got the p*** taken out on you that year by a group of people that can."

​​​​​​​Halle won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in Monster's Ball.

And she's compared that experience to being handed a Razzie.

She said, "If I can show up to collect an Oscar when you're honouring me, I can certainly show up to collect a Razzie when you say, good try, but do better.

"I always learned that if you can't be a good loser, then you don't deserve to be a good winner. So I went there and made fun of myself. I had a great time and then I set that thing on fire. That's what I did!"

Halle, who recently made her directorial debut with the MMA drama Bruised, added that she would love to make a Catwoman movie.

"I would definitely direct the next Catwoman," she said. "I think I would redeem myself. I, as a filmmaker now, I would totally change the story. I would change the characters. I would have Catwoman saving the world from some catastrophe, like male comic book characters get to do."
