"Them&amp;apos;s fightin&amp;apos; words!\r\nElton John lost to Madonna at Sunday&amp;apos;s Golden Globe Awards in Beverly Hills, where the Material Girl won for Best Original Song (Motion Picture) for &amp;quot;Masterpiece,&amp;quot; which she wrote for W.E., which she also directed.\r\n\r\nAnd John&amp;apos;s husband, David Furnish, was unhappy about the loss. (Madonna beat out John&amp;apos;s &amp;quot;Hello Hello&amp;quot; from the film Gnomeo &amp;amp; Juliet plus three other contenders, including Mary J. Blige&amp;apos;s &amp;quot;Living Proof&amp;quot; from The Help.)\r\nShortly after the 53-year-old pop singer&amp;apos;s name was called, Furnish wrote on his Facebook page: &amp;quot;Madonna. Best song???? F**k off!!!&amp;quot;\r\nPHOTOS: Nasty celeb feuds\r\nAfter Madonna&amp;apos;s acceptance speech -- the orchestra even started playing in an attempt to cut her off -- Furnish&amp;apos;s rant continued.\r\n&amp;quot;Madonna winning Best Original Song truly shows how these awards have nothing to do with merit. Her acceptance speech was embarrassing in its narcissism,&amp;quot; he wrote. &amp;quot;And her criticism of Gaga shows how desperate she really is.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nLast week, Madonna gave several interviews in the press accusing her pop queen successor Lady Gaga of ripping off her classic &amp;quot;Express Yourself&amp;quot; in &amp;quot;Born This Way,&amp;quot; calling the latter track &amp;quot;reductive.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nBut, backstage at the Globes, Madonna was hopeful that her win wouldn&amp;apos;t irk John, 64.  &amp;quot;I hope he speaks to me for the next couple of years,&amp;quot; she quipped. &amp;quot;He&amp;apos;s been known to get mad at me so I don&amp;apos;t know.  He&amp;apos;s brilliant and I adore him so he&amp;apos;ll win another award. I don&amp;apos;t feel bad!&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
