SHOW. ME. THE. RECEIPTS.
“Bitch, I said what I said,” rapped Doja Cat on number one single ‘Paint the Town Red’, released in August 2023. It’s a lyric that sums up her public image perfectly. The previous month, she lost almost a million Instagram followers after insulting her fanbase, saying: “My fans don’t name themselves shit. If you call yourself a ‘kitten’ or fucking ‘kittenz’, that means you need to get off your phone and get a job and help your parents with the house.” Yikes. Suffice to say, the Los Angeles-born singer-songwriter doesn’t mince her words — or often apologise for them — so buckle up tight for a whistlestop tour of some of the star’s most hell-raising LGBTQ+-related public statements.
