After Doja Cat voiced her frustration with fans who questioned her relationship with J. Cyrus, she went on a tangent on Threads where she called out followers who used her real name in their handle. “You making my government name your [screenname] is creepy as f**k,” Doja wrote in July. Shortly after, the “Kiss Me More” rapper lambasted the “Kittenz” nickname for her fanbase. “My fans don’t get to name themselves s**t,” she wrote. “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,” Doja added.
Although multiple followers pointed out Doja’s hypocrisy, as she was part of deciding to nickname her fans “Kittenz.” In 2020, the artist held a Twitter poll. “Because I don’t feel morally right pet-naming you guys,” she wrote, in a now-deleted tweet, while giving the options of “Kittens (Litter)” or “Cubs (Pride),” according to the Los Angeles Times.

The tension between Doja and her fans did not stop there, as she continued to share heated exchanges with her followers. One fan asked Doja to say, “I do love you guys,” but the rapper refused. “[I] don’t though cuz I don’t even know yall,” she replied. This prompted a mass exodus, and a week later, it was reported she had lost 500,000 Instagram followers. Following these exchanges, fans continued to voice their discontent with Doja’s behavior.
