Nicole Kidman has won the award for 'Worst Actress' 2015 for 'Grace Of Monaco' at British Academy for Rubbish Films and Terrible Acting (Barfta).

'Grace of Monaco' was about the American actress Grace Kelly's marriage to Prince Rainier III, and it was neither liked by audience nor by the critics last year after its release, the Independent reported.

'Pudsey the Dog: the Movie' received the 'Worst British Film' and was described as a 'train wreck', whereas Simon Pegg grabbed the award for 'Worst Actor' for 'Hector and the Search for Happiness'.

In addition to the awardees, there were some actors who made their place in the nomination for their worst performances in films, like Cameron Diaz was nominated for 'Worst Actress' in 'Sex Tape', and David Walliams was shortlisted for 'Worst Actor' for voicing the dog in 'Pudsey the Dog: the Movie'

 

Special prizes included the 'Dick van Dyke Award' for disastrous accent awarded that was honoured to Russell Crowe for his baffling accent in 'A New York Winter's Tale'.

Popbitch has fronted the awards since its set up, and Barfta voting academy is made up of notable British film critics and industry professionals who vote anonymously.
