Lady Gaga scored herself an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song thanks to “The Hunting Ground’s” “Til it Happens to You.”

According to esteemed songwriter Linda Perry, she doesn’t deserve it because she didn’t actually write the song.

Linda took to Twitter late last night to blast Gaga over the fact that Diane Warren wrote the song and suggested that Gaga merely changed a few words to score herself a writing credit.
