He is up for worst actor for his performance in “Blended” (with Drew Barrymore).“The Other Woman” came and went in theaters, but the Razzies didn’t forget. Cameron Diaz (with Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) was nominated for worst actress. She’s also a dual nominee: She’s up for worst supporting actor for “Annie.”Melissa McCarthy’s “Tammy” (with Susan Sarandon, right) had some success in theaters.
