Sandra Bullock's Oscar win for The Blind Side makes her the first actor to receive an Oscar and a Golden Raspberry (a "Razzie") in the same year (She "won" Worst Actress for All About Steve). Technically, she's also the first to win her Razzie before her Oscar. (The Razzies are traditionally handed out the Saturday before the Oscars).
