Sandra Bullock made Oscar history in 2010 when she won two Razzie Awards and an Academy Award within 24 hours of each other, something no other actor in history has ever done.

Bullock won the Worst Actress and Worst Screen Couple Razzies (the latter shared with Bradley Cooper) for the atrocious "comedy" All About Steve, and the next night she scooped the Best Actress Oscar for her work on The Blind Side.

In addition to attending the Oscars, Bullock actually showed up at the Razzies and handed out DVD copies of All About Steve. How can you not love that?

While you can argue that Bullock's Oscar win was a bit of a softball choice - especially with superior performances from Carey Mulligan (An Education) and Gabourey Sidibe (Precious) in the mix - winning both Worst Actress and Best Actress in the same year is pure poetry.
