Elton John's husband David Furnish went on a rage towards Madonna. Madonna, nominated in the same category as Elton John, won the best original song award. David calculated her speech was narcissistic and embarrassing. Elton John also seemed angry Madonna was even nominated for the category (the same category he was nominated for).
During her speech David writes that, "Madonna winning Best Original Song truly shows how these awards have nothing to do with merit. Her acceptance speech was embarrassing in it's narcissism. And her critisism of Gaga shows how desperate she really is."
Before the awards Elton had already seemed particularly bitter/rude towards Madonna; telling the press on the red carpet that there was no way that she would win the award....guess he was wrong.
