Esperanza Spalding Beat Justin Bieber And His Fans Got Angry

For a little while last night, Esperanza Spalding was given the middle name "Quesadilla" on her Wikipedia page by, presumably, a disappointed Justin Bieber fan. To the surprise of many, Spalding won the Grammy award for Best New Artist at last night's ceremony. Justin himself handled the loss gracefully, but not so for the angry Wikipedia updater who added this to Spalding's entry (click image to enlarge): "Recently, she won the best new artist at the 53rd Grammy Awards JUSTIN BIEBER DESERVED IT GO DIE IN A HOLE. WHO THE HECK ARE YOU ANYWAY?"

Lovely, right? That person is not alone in his or her disappointment, though. Much of the outpouring of dismay has been a little less vulgar (not all), but equally insane. Here's a sample:

+ "Wtf is a Esperanza Spalding?" @PoeticMotionsz

+ "Her name is Esperanza Spalding. That's like...a Disney Princess and a basketball. But congrats to her." @kingsleyy

+ who the hell its Esperanza Spalding? -.-. u dont deserve that award b**** -.- @EspeSpalding sucks -.- @Allyitshere

+ "Congratulations to Esperanza Spalding for winning Best New Artist, I will now google your name to find out who you are." @BeliebInTheBest

+ "Esperanza Spalding shouldn't have won no one knows her, another b**** we have to google. Drake or Justin should have won." @Maryam_9

+ "Esperanza Spalding said she was surprised she won Best New Artist "'because I'd never heard of me.'" @BorowitzReport
