Doja Cat Called Out After She Blames Internet Bullying For Instagram Deactivation

Doja Cat bid adieu to Instagram over the weekend, telling her 24 million followers she’s grown tired of the popular app. The reason? The “Paint The Town Red” artist suggested she’s the victim of cyberbullying. While announcing she was deactivating her account, she encouraged people to mind their manners.

“Hey I’m gonna deactivate because im not really feeling this anymore,” she wrote. “You guys take care of yourselves. I like coming here to find inspo and see people being creative but I just feel like this is getting to be too much. The way im spoken to on here and treated makes me have f##### up thoughts. Please watch how you talk to and about people on the internet. Bye.”

But some people weren’t feeling Doja Cat’s announcement either. Several Twitter (X) users were quick to point out she once told her entire fanbase she “didn’t love” them. An artist who goes by Toshi took responsibility for Doja Cat’s decision, tweeting, “You ain’t give a f### about anybody a few months ago. How you worship the devil and complain? HAHAHA. I made one of the biggest stars delete her Insta. God always wins b####.”

Another added, “Doja cat should have thought that before mocking Amber Heards testimony,” while yet another said, “literally.. tells her fans she doesn’t love them. and does this. ok doja cat.”

Doja Cat made the controversial comments last August following a comment from a fan that read: “I wanna hear you say (I do love you guys) as usual you say to your fans.” She replied, “I don’t though cuz i don’t even know yall.” Another fan barked back, “And we don’t know you. but we have supported you through thick and thin.

“Mind you you’d be NOTHING without us. you’d be working at a grocery store making songs on f###ing garage band miss high school drop out,” to which Doja Cat said, “Nobody forced you idk why you’re talking to me like you’re my mother b#### you sound like a crazy person.”

She also disavowed her fanbase, affectionately referred to as “Kittenz.”

“My fans don’t name themselves s###” she wrote in a since-deleted post. “If you call yourself a ‘kitten’ or f###ng ‘kittenz’ that means you need to get off your phone and get a job and help your parents with the house.”
