The Chainsmokers' inexplicable success is matched by the public's unfiltered loathing towards the electronic duo because, well, they seem like huge jerks.
Still, a couple dudes bragging about banging models as they get used to fame and fortune is, sadly, par for the course. But dissing Rihanna and Lady Gaga on your way up? That's taking things too far.
But don't worry -- Mother Monster's here to put them in their place.

His bandmate, Drew Taggart, sort of defended Gaga. "She's a great artist – like, Jeff Koons made a sculpture of her," Taggart said.
"I agree," Pall conceded, searching in the depths of his skull for a more nuanced argument. "And a lot of talented people worked on that song. But . . ."
The comments, of course, sparked a Twitter party.

"I can't wait to smoke them all / Whole pack like Marlboro / Blow it in your face, " sings Gaga on "A-YO."

Her tweet is a masterful bit of shade wrapped in a peace offering, and the Little Monsters are declaring victory.
