John Leguizamo has won a new award for the worst Latino actor.

Latina magazine's website has identified the worst in Latin entertainment in its first annual Lazzie Awards.

Leguizamo was selected for his performance in 2007 movie Love In The Time Of Cholera, in which he played businessman Lorenzo Daza.

The publication christened the prize the 'John Leguizamo Award for Bad Acting' in honour of the Emmy-winning star, who also played Toulouse-Lautrec in Moulin Rouge!

It said: "We named this award in honour of one of the consistently worst - and, ironically, most successful - of our Latino actors."

US medical drama Grey's Anatomy won the 'I'd Rather Be Watching the Weather Channel Award' for worst TV show of the year.
