Meryl Streep's speech condemning President-elect Donald Trump seemingly didn't go down well with everyone in the Golden Globes audience on Sunday night.
Mel Gibson, known to be conservative, and Vince Vaughn, who is a libertarian, both gave Streep death stares as she delivered her speech - with Vaughn refusing to blink for an uncomfortably long period of time.

Mr Trump took to Twitter to refute accusations that he had mocked the man.

"groveling" when he totally changed a 16 year old story that he had written in order to make me look bad. Just more very dishonest media!

The Golden Globes is often light-hearted, so perhaps her speech was not received too well by them because they didn't think it was the right place to make it.
