decision to stand by their “Worst Performance by Bruce Willis in 2021” award. “After much thought and consideration, the Razzies have made the decision to rescind the Razzie Award given to Bruce Willis, due to his recently disclosed diagnosis,” a statement by co-founders John Wilson and Mo Murphy says.“If someone’s medical condition is a factor in their decision making and/or their performance, we acknowledge that it is not appropriate to give them a Razzie.” Willis’ family announced on Wednesday that the actor had been diagnosed with the cognitive disorder aphasia and was stepping away from acting.The Razzie Awards came under fire on Wednesday for refusing to rescind the special award for Willis, and for making an inflammatory Tweet.

Scout Willis, daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, is grateful for the "outpouring of love" her family has received since they disclosed her father’s aphasia diagnosis. "The exquisite outpouring of love that I am experiencing right now is just blowing me away," the 30-year-old wrote on her Instagram story Wednesday. "Thank you all for showing up with so much tenderness and stunning love for my daddio and my whole family!" she added.

However, the Golden Raspberry Awards (aka the Razzies) has announced that they are “still discussing” awarding the 67-year-old with the snarky “Worst Performance by Bruce Willis in a 2021 movie” despite his illness.

As Hollywood rallies around Bruce Willis after his family revealed his aphasia diagnosis, Kevin Smith is taking ownership of his past comments.
