Lady Gaga Win: Twitter Very Mixed On Golden Globe Victory Over Kirsten Dunst, Queen Latifah [VIDEO]
Lady Gaga's Golden Globe win last night was a polarizing one, to be sure.
What Does Lady Gaga's Fiancé Taylor Kinney Think Of Her 'American Horror Story' Gig?
Gaga won the Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actress in a Limited Series or a Motion Picture Made for Television, for her role as The Countess in FX's American Horror Story: Hotel. The pop superstar turned actress was visibly surprised and gave an emotional, heartfelt speech and while some fans were cheering hard for her, others were not happy with Gaga's win.
Many Golden Globes watchers were upset that Gaga beat Kirsten Dunst's performance in FX's Fargo, in addition to Queen Latifah's performance in HBO's Bessie. Dunst, in particular, was the odds-on favorite to win the Globe, according to awards experts GoldDerby.

But while fan reaction is mixed to say the least, Gaga at least made a memorable moment when she breezed past Leonardo DiCaprio. The clip has already spread across the Internet, with DiCaprio's face sure to provide memes for years to come.
The American Horror Story: Hotel finale airs Wednesday at 10 p.m. ET/PT on FX.
