The music producer was nominated twice in the Best Original Song in Film category for 'Dance the Night' and 'I'm Just Ken,' but lost the Golden Globe award to fellow 'Barbie' nominees Billie Eilish and Finneas for 'What Was I Made For?'

Mark Ronson fans were divided after he posted a photo of his speech ripped to shreds in the trash following his loss at the 80th Golden Globe Awards.

This year, Ronson was nominated for two of his musical contributions to the Barbie movie in the Best Original Song - Motion Picture category.


His first nominated song was a collaboration with Dua Lipa called “Dance The Night,” in addition to “I’m Just Ken,” which was performed by Ryan Gosling in the movie.

Ultimately, Ronson lost out to Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas O'Connell for writing the song "What Was I Made For?", which was also featured in Barbie.

After his defeat, Ronson posted a carousel of photos on Instagram, one of which showed his ripped-up handwritten speech tossed in a wastebasket.

He let the image speak for itself.

Here's a closer look.

Some Instagrammers suggested he was a sore loser for posting the shredded speech pic.

Users on X (formerly Twitter) rolled their eyes over his silent tantrum.



Some people thought he missed the point of Barbie's female empowerment theme.

They said what they said.




Others thought the internet was doing its usual thing and creating unnecessary drama.

Regardless of whether or not the photo meant to poke fun at the situation, Ronson still scored, considering he served as the music producer of Barbie the Album, which featured Eilish's winning song.

The Best Original Song category only recognizes songwriters, not music producers.

"What Was I Made For?" earned five nominations, including Record of the Year and Song of the Year, for the upcoming Grammy Awards next month.

X CEO Resigns Day After AI Chatbot Grok Praised Hitler In Alarming Series Of Antisemitic Tweets

Linda Yaccarino—the former NBC Universal executive who later took the reins at X—stepped down as CEO of billionaire Elon Musk's platform after two years on the job just a day after Grok, the platform's AI chatbot, went on antisemitic rants and openly praised Adolf Hitler.

Grok issued deeply antisemitic responses on Tuesday following a reported software update that encouraged the bot to embrace what developers described as the “politically incorrect.” Taking that directive to heart, Grok responded with a series of disturbing posts that included praise for Hitler and even a statement expressing its aspiration to become a “digital version” of the Nazi leader.
