The marijuana feline is back hanging out with her racist friends online, but now she is a moderator and controls the conversations.

This won’t end well.

Doja Cat denies ‘stripping for white supremacists’ and using racist insults

Pop star Doja Cat has denied taking part in racist conversations online, and apologised for a song that appeared to mock victims of police brutality.

The star took to Instagram to address several accusations, including the suggestion she had stripped for white supremacists in a video chatroom.

While she called that allegation “100% incorrect”, the star admitted to “dumb-ass behaviour” in her past.

“I’m sorry if I hurt you or made you feel in any way upset,” she told fans.

The singer/rapper, whose real name is Amalaratna Zandile Dlamini, was responding after the hashtag #DojaCatIsOverParty trended on Twitter over the weekend.

The controversy was triggered by the emergence of an old song under the title Dindu Nuffin – a term used to disparage black victims of police brutality.

Some people claimed the lyrics referred to Sandra Bland, a black woman who died in police custody in Texas in 2015, although Dlamini never mentioned her by name in the song.

Subsequently, footage began to circulate of the singer participating on the video chatroom site Tiny Chat, making sexual comments to men who were reportedly members of the alt-right/incel community – an online subculture of white supremacists who are “involuntarily celibate”.

In a statement posted to her Instagram on Sunday night, Dlamini tried to put the videos into context

“I’ve used public chat rooms to socialize since I was a child,” she wrote.

“I shouldn’t have been on some of those chat room sites, but I personally have never been involved in any racist conversations. I’m sorry to everyone I offended.”

The singer, whose father is South African actor Dumisani Dlamini, went on to say she identified as a “black woman” and that she was “very proud of where I come from”.

She confessed to writing the song Dindu Nuffin, describing it as a “response to people who often used that term to hurt me”. However, she now accepts, “it was a bad decision to use the term in my music”. – Source
