Songwriter Linda Perry is not entirely pleased with Lady Gaga getting nominated for an Oscar.

Twitter Very Mixed On Lady Gaga's Golden Globe Victory

Perry went on a rant last night about Gaga's Oscar nomination in the Best Original Song category for "Til It Happens to You" from The Hunting Ground. As writers of the song, Gaga and songwriter Diane Warren are nominated--but Perry thinks Gaga shouldn't be nominated at all.

Check out Perry's full rant below.

Why Lady Gaga Was 'Miserable' Before 'American Horror Story'

Perry has received backlash from Gaga fans since the tweets were sent out. Gaga previously commented on her contribution to writing the song, admitting herself that Warren had crafted the song before it came to her.

"It was already kind of a finished piece when I came in to work on it with Diane," Gaga told the Los Angeles Times. "We made some changes so it would speak to more people than just rape survivors. The song kind of became a conversation between two women who'd been sexually abused. Finding our common connection through this song and her sharing that with me--Diane doesn't co-write with anybody, ever--it meant a lot to me; it was really a gift. She was saying, 'I want to share this with you; this is ours.' And that's what we're saying to people: We want to share our pain with other people."

Considering Gaga's comments about making "some changes" to the song, it does suggest that she and Warren worked together and rewrote the song. Whether that means changing a few lyrics or arranging the melody differently, it is still part of the rewriting process. There is no conclusive proof of how much writing was contributed by Gaga, but considering Warren has been more than happy to share the glory with Gaga, she is likely happy with the pop star's efforts.

However, neither Gaga nor Warren have commented on Perry's recent comments.

See if "Til It Happens to You" wins the Oscar on Sunday, Feb. 28 on ABC.
