*Doja Cat’s natural hair is featured in the cover art for her forthcoming single “MASC,” and her non-Black fans are comparing the texture to pubic hair.
Doja hit up on Instagram Live to respond to the criticism, as it appears some people have forgotten that she is a mixed-race Black woman who does not have European-textured hair.
“My hair is 4C hair, which a lot of you don’t care, that’s fine, but I’m seeing a consistent pattern in my comment section of people saying is my hair pubic hair, is it carpet or is it sheep’s wool,” Doja said in a video statement. “We gotta move forward. Let’s move forward. Let’s grow.”
The critics flooded the comments section of Doja’s “MASC” cover art post, which she captioned: “🦴\🦴\ ASC 4.5.24.”
Watch her reaction to the hair-haters in the X/Twitter post below.
