After reportedly working with a vocal coach everyday for 6 months to prepare, eccentric pop diva Lady Gaga is still the name on Hollywood lips after lending a show-stopping rendition of Julie Andrews‘ ‘The Sound of Music’ at last night’s 87th Annual Academy Awards. But, as reports have swarmed the net today indicating, there’s one person who didn’t exactly like the sound she was hearing – famed TV writer Shonda Rhimes.
Lending a scandal-ous tweet amidst the initial round of Gaga’s Twitter applause, Rhimes stated:
The statement certainly gained more detractors than it did supporters. In fact, some 24 hours since Gaga’s showing, #LittleMonsters and new fans alike are still going in on Shonda. See what we mean below:

I can’t quite get the shade, cause GaGa delivered that broadway realness… I guess Shonda was just bored looking 4 some wigs
Scandal is irrelevant? Where…that was a dumb read. Slay Gaga because Rihanna could NEVER
I said that first part, too… what continent is Scandal irrelevant on?
Shonda got 3 bout to be 4 shows on ABC.. chile she’s unbothered
LOL, so sad! Rihanna personally attacked you. Why you even mention her name when this have absolutely 0 to do with her??!??! Just pathetic on your part!
Shonda has 3 of the 4 most watched dramas on TV, she’s unbothered.
I don’t know why you’re coming for Rihanna because Cedric will never again book a stage outside of BET/The Wendy Williams Show.
Yet she’s booking vogue covers and in Australia now
Let’s see Rhianna book a solo hit
You cannot please everyone. There’s always that one bitter hater. Gaga did her thing.
No, she did someone elses thing.
And Yass. Rashad is on a roll tonight. Work Bish!
Yes! I hope they continue to let her have it for the rest of the week…
To Me , Idina voice is not all that . It’s ok but a lil annoying. Lady Gaga gave Depth and showmanship. I think it was a wonderful performance filled with wimsical moments and broadway effects.
She looked like a 50 year old from the 80’s. And her raiding through artists work, then covering Classics disgusts me.
In her defense this is the Oscars and “The Sound of Music” doesn’t call for Extravigant Gaga it called for Stefani so the she dressed for the occasion and moment .
Girl Bye! Gaga did that! This h** is a hater.
Shonda might know a lot about script writing and show running but she ain’t know s*** about music judging by Grey’s corny musical eps and this tweet. All the GaGa haters know better than to pick on her voice cause that’s one argument impossible to defend. Guess she missed the memo…
I agreed up until you mentioned Grey’s music. The music on the show is extremely good. Musicians who usually have their songs play on the show get recognition, like, almost immediately.
Not everyone likes her voice. I don’t like her voice, I think she souns pretentious as f***.
You’re really going to compare a pop singer to a writer of not one but several successful shows? In what world is scandal irrelevant?The performance wasnt all of that, we got better vocals last week at stevie’s tribute,but I will say she could’ve been a little more tackful. However, it is disgusting as hell how people gang up on people on the internet if they dont agree with them Whatever happened to allowing people have different opinions and respecting them? Especially a stanbase of an artist who’s last album tanked. Monsters will always be the reason why people dont like or give Gaga a chance. S*** people are just now figuring out she can actually sing
TriniPrincess didnt have s*** else to say because she knows good and damn well that “Scandal” is faaaaarrrr from irrelevant.
I’m living for that Phylicia Rashad meme, yesss Ms Hextable.
I’m living for your name!
Thanks doll, and i’m living for your reads, the way you Catholic school these girls, it’s hilarious.
I love Shonda’s work (not her) and that Gaga performance (not her), so I have no comment. I just think people need to realize that you can’t please everyone, and no artist or voice is for everyone. People are entitled to their opinions. End of discussion.
Shonda stick to storytelling and scriptwriting boo, music ain’t your thing. That was unnecessary shade
Everyone knows Shonda is a troll, Empire is breaking all the records there is to break in the series world(just tore apart Grey’s record in ratings last week), she needs as much publicity as she can get, I guess that Heigl diss isn’t helping again eh! Shonda is a fantastic writer, but her personality is like that of
F** bird at age 5. #barbznation!!!!
That was unnecessary shade but the kii is if this was the Hive this post would’ve already been at 100+ comments calling them poor and telling them to get a life.
It was a good performance. Let them have this moment, please. And they better pray their fave doesn’t f*** it up once again when it’s time for the REAL era to begin.
when you stan for who you do, you don’t get to comment on LIVE PERFORMANCES and VOCALS. GaGa could f*** up yet still sound miles better than Llama. go play UltraEarRape and cry about your pepsi-cola stale p**** and stay mad at GaGa trending when it’s not even “the REAL era”.
So I had a thought between personal preference and being prejudice; where is the line drawn. This thought originated from when I ask my mom why she wasn’t watching HGTV and she said she wasn’t watching the channel because Ellen’s show was on and because she a lesbian (which conflicts with her Christian beliefs). Then I thought “Well what if a person didn’t want to select someone for a job or whatever not because of qualification purposes but because their race doesn’t go with their personal preference. Or in other words my mother wasn’t buying into Ellen’s product because she’s a lesbian, just as CEO won’t higher a persons outside their race for a product because of their race differs from their own.
‘seriously disappointed in you Shonda, you help break stereotypes but you can’t help gaga expand her range’… LOL wtf did this bìtch read her tweet before she sent it. How stupid can you get. So you want to discredit all of the groundbreaking work that Shonda has done for over a decade just because she doesn’t like the performance. who the fuq cares, people needs to get a grip and how can you call scandal a flop when its at its highest ratings ever and sometimes outpeaks Grey Anatomy (average 9-10 M a week). Why don’t her vocal fans go and purchase her CD with that pensioner and stop trying to call other people out.
SCREAMING! at the one fan who dragged Scott foleys ‘D-List abs’, I have to agree with you on that one. He’s supposed to be a leading man but he has a gut that even a Krispy Kreme’s employee would be disgusted by.
It´s one of the very few times I´ve ever seen when 99% of people agrees it was an outstanding performance. Film critics who don´t give a damn about these music stars and all. They were absolutely impressed.
Surprises me seeing someone bringing that performance down? What does Idina being there have to do with anything? Idina sang last year (and cracked btw, no shade cause voices are not machines, but if we want to start saying stupid things we could start with that). Such an out of order comment.
Her voice sounds assholish
My mom is a s*** and i am an abortion survivor
I agree with Shonda Rimes comment. I didn’t like GaGa’s performance at all. GaGa’s voice isn’t genuine and has no personality. And I still don’t understand why GaGa even performed at the Oscars. What connection does she have to that? Maybe she paid to perform?
It was a tribute you idiot!
Tt’s not like she went there and did her own songs like bad romance and born this way.
You haters are never satisfied but then again what else can you do when you got nothing good going on In your life your main purpose is to be bitter and mean behind a computer screen while the person you busy trolling is out there getting all the applause and success stay pressed hun!
P!nk did a tribute at the Oscars last year yet I don’t see any of you bitching and complaining.
Born This Way is not really her own song.
I love you Shonda! got my first kiss while watching season 4 of Grey’s Anatomy
A basic b**** covering Classics.
Time i take my Arvs living with a*** is not a joke i hate my mama for passing it on to me via birth
Gaga is a flop no oscars will help her
Lady gaga’s voice has no sense of direction she sounds like a goat
You got be black.
She is a has been and no clinging onto the oscars for relevance
Shonda is just upset because Empire has made scandal and all the rest of her crap irrelevant. And Gaga’s haters are still mad because their scalps are still sore from getting snatched by Gaga on Sunday night. Proceed with your hating, crybabies. Won’t change the fact that Lady Gaga was the star of this year’s Academy Awards.
scandal is irrelevant. grey’s anatomy BEEN irrelevant. It’s all about EMPIRE. Gaga slayed so shonda can sit on it.
Shes just a fat, hungry, fried KFC chicken eating WHALE. She needs to concentrate on her boring TV shows that are stuck in the same story line. Maybe she should ask Lady Gaga for help.
You guys are full of s***!
Empire hasn’t made any other tv show irrelevant but Power that comes on showtime.It’s okay to be mad at what she said but to put out false info is just stupid. Fat or not that women has put in work and has so many hit shows that she could retire today. She’ll still be here long after Gaga’s career is gone
