Deadmau5 was at it again on Twitter yesterday, trashing Lady Gaga for posing naked in a Marina Abramovic-inspired video. Although this time he was forced to delete his tweets on receiving death threats from the singer’s fans, a global clique affectionately known as Gaga’s Little Monsters.

The Monsters spread their venom after the ace Canadian producer shared his annoyance about the ‘NSFW’ vid, in which Gaga hugs a giant ice cube completely naked, promoting the performance artist’s ‘Abramovic Method’.

After watching the video, Deadmau5 tweeted: “What the actual fuck? If some idiot howls in the woods and noones around, does it make a sound? MYTH BUSTED”.

However, he later deleted the message when he received a heap of abusive tweets from a fleet of Gaga-lovers.

Some users went to extreme lengths to make their opinion of the Mau5 clear:

@deadmau5 kill yourself you disgusting ugly piece of shit, AIDS infested nazi, talentless 4 inch dick midget—

@deadmau5 you are just a shit dj that wanting five minutes of fame, using a exceptional artist like Gaga, it sees… DIE—

Before removing his tweet, Deadmau5 decided to speak his mind saying, “All these tweets telling me to kill myself. The Little Monsters are pro suicide or something? Not sure what to make of that”.

This obviously isn’t the first time an entire horde of fans of pop have gone crazy in defense of a chart topping pop sensation. A legion of fans of One Direction recently had sent threats to British magazine GQ after the title insinuated the group’s Harry Styles had slept with a number of girls. Justin Bieber’s followers have also been known to attack random teenagers online with full force.

Now, Deadmau5 can be extremely outspoken, but surely no one deserves this kind of online bashing, right?
