Doja Cat Sparks Mixed Reactions Among Fans With Candid Thoughts On Her Latest Release

The "Woman" singer took to Instagram to playfully stir up her fans with a selfie that made her head look larger than usual. The snap saw the star sporting trendy orange glasses, bright eyeshadow, and thinly drawn eyebrows. In the following slide, the 27-year-old captured the inside of a car, focusing on her raised flawless legs. 

Long white socks and red sports shoes adorned her legs while she held a gray fluffy toy sporting a spiked collar. In the caption, the "Paint The Town Red" singer jokingly suggested:

"As a joke we should all make PTTR go #1 how hilarious would it be just think about that."

Another committed to non-stop streaming, sharing, "As my part of contributing I will be playing it evrey minute of the day." Some found humor in their dedication, with this netizen admitting, "Been listening on repeat since it came out I'm so silly."

The "Dave" guest star's fans are clearly somewhat divided over where they stand with her, especially since she distanced herself from their preferred name, "Kittenz." The Blast reported that the singer received more backlash from followers after sharing her updated album art.

After the old one was deleted because it was likened to the German metal band Chaver's cover, the MTV Video Music Awards host uploaded another with the caption "Updated Cover." The new artwork featured a drawn spider-like creature with its head and abdomen represented by pearls on a white background. 

Fans wasted no time sharing their reactions with one person coming for Doja Cat, "Addicted to have an album cover that doesn't serve." This cybernaut chimed in with a balanced perspective, noting, "it's a dope cover but with all da love doja it's a weak cover …. i was hoping for bloody scarlet or something like the tour promo photo … tho i'm still super excited for the album."

The 'Like That' Artist Emphasizes Authenticity Over External Opinions

Known for her unapologetic approach, the Grammy Award winner took to her Instagram Story to reinforce her unwavering stance on staying true to herself. The "Wine Pon You" artist's purpose was to make it clear that she valued her fans' understanding of her genuine self above all else.

At the same time, she subtly hinted that those who remain unaware of her essence hold little significance. In the post, she shared an image of a faucet with a black head pouring into what appeared to be a bathtub.

Above it, she wrote, "All that matters to me is that my fans know who I am and the others are stuck trying to figure out." The message came on the heels of her response on Instagram Story to the loss of numerous followers, stating:

"Seeing all these people unfollow me makes me feel like I've defeated a large beast that's been holding me down for so long. And it feels like I can reconnect with the people who really matter and love me for who I am and not for who I was."

The "Need to Know" singer paired the statement with an image of cars in motion on a highway. In her subsequent post, she penned a cryptic message across the same photo: "I do not 'fart,' my a** simply whispers."
