Organisers of the Razzie Awards, which are given to the year's worst films, have cancelled the recent "honour" they gave to actor Bruce Willis after the announcement about his health issues. On Wednesday, his family revealed he has the brain disorder aphasia. Ceremony bosses said it was "not appropriate" to award prizes to those whose medical conditions may have affected their performances. Willis was given his own category for worst Bruce Willis performance in 2021. Of the eight films nominated, Cosmic Sin was judged most worthy winner. The other movies in contention included American Siege, Apex, Deadlock and Out Of Death. The recipients of this year's Razzies, also known as the Golden Raspberry Awards, were revealed on Saturday. Days later, it was announced that Willis was stepping away from his acting career after being diagnosed with the condition, which impedes a person's ability to speak and write. Emma Heming Willis has thanked people for their support for her husband Willis, 67, is best known for playing John McClane in the Die Hard films, which made him a star. Razzie organisers said they reached their decision after "much thought and consideration". "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," they said. The award ceremony's Twitter account tweeted on 30 March that they were "truly sorry for Bruce Willis diagnosed condition", adding: "Perhaps this explains why he wanted to go out with a bang in 2021. "Our best wishes to Bruce and family." Explains a lot
About a year later: Bruce Willis has frontotemporal dementia In a statement on social media, they said it was a "relief to finally have a clear diagnosis". The 67-year-old was diagnosed with aphasia - which causes difficulties with speech - in spring last year, but this has progressed and he has been given a more specific diagnosis, the family said. They expressed their "deepest gratitude for the incredible outpouring of love". The family went on to say frontotemporal dementia is the most common form of dementia in people under 60. "Today there are no treatments for the disease, a reality that we hope can change in the years ahead," the statement said. Willis became a household name in the 1980s and 90s after starring in blockbuster films such as Die Hard, The Sixth Sense, Armageddon and Pulp Fiction. He has also been nominated for five Golden Globes - winning one for Moonlighting - and also three Emmys, where he won two.

The new statement on Thursday said they hoped media attention would raise awareness of the actor's condition. It said: "Bruce always believed in using his voice in the world to help others, and to raise awareness about important issues both publicly and privately. "We know in our hearts that - if he could today - he would want to respond by bringing global attention and a connectedness with those who are also dealing with this debilitating disease and how it impacts so many individuals and their families." The statement was signed by members of Willis's family including his wife Emma Heming - with whom he has two daughters - and his former wife Demi Moore and their three daughters.
