Doja Cat recently sat down for a rare interview with Ebro Darden, where she opened up about navigating her superstar status.
Around the 10:30 mark, Ebro asked Doja Cat about people claiming that she's into Satanism, which she stated takes away from her hard work to get where she is today. Doja Cat explained, "I like the idea of: I did it on purpose and it’s this big ruse to make people react. But I also like the idea of: I love this piece of visual art, I like this visual for this sound.
"So I chose that visual and applied it to the sound and people made up what they [want], which is what you do with art. You interpret it how you want to interpret it. Everybody has a right to interpret how they want."
Doja Cat added, "But this whole very confident ‘Satanism’ thing is like — I’m sorry, when the f*** did I say that I was a Satanist? Or even go marching outside the church? When the f*** did I say that? It’s really tacky and annoying and discredits a lot of the hard work that I’ve put in."
