Doja Cat recently became the talk of the town when she reacted to the fact that her fans have started calling themselves "Kittenz." She took to Threads to react to the same and told the fanbase to "get a job."
"My fans don’t name themselves s*it. If you call yourself a 'kitten' or f**king 'kittenz' that means you need to get off your phone and get a job and help your parents with the house,” she wrote.
Her post soon went viral, and while some fans were offended by her comments, others asked her what she would like her fanbase to be called. The singer seemed rather agitated and replied:
“Just delete the entire account and rethink everything. It’s never too late.”
Several social media users slammed Doja Cat, whose real name is Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini, and criticized her for her remarks. Many also noticed that her fan pages online were being deleted after her words hurt fans' sentiments. The artist soon deleted her posts but this did not stop social media users from expressing their views about the situation.
