Glee co-creator Ryan Murphy is still furious that Kings of Leon wouldn't allow their music to be used on his show, and a new war of words has broken out between the gay TV powerhouse and the drummer of the hit-making rock group.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Murphy called members of Kings of Leon "self-centered assholes" because they denied Murphy the rights to their music last year, while Glee ostensibly promotes musical education. Kings of Leon drummer Nathan Followill took to his Twitter Wednesday and wrote, "Dear Ryan Murphy, let it go. See a therapist, get a manicure, buy a new bra. Zip your lip and focus on educating 7yr olds how to say f---."

An hour later Followill apologized to "anyone that misconstrued my comments as homophobic or misogynistic."
