HOT 91.7 FM DOJA CAT: Admits Academy Award Performance Fell Short
Written by Ariel Newbold on March 5, 2025
Doja Cat has something to say to the critics of her Oscars performance on Sunday night — “you were right!”
Doja took to social media to address the critiques, admitting straight up that, “The nerves got to me…and a bitch hit some flats.” She reflected on the reception to performance, while sharing some of the challenges she faced on stage. “I never get to sing like that and what I did was brave and scary as [hell] for me. I know a lot of people didn’t like it, but a lot of people did, and I feel good that I pushed myself.”
Alongside a gallery of pictures from the Academy Awards, Doja wrote in the caption, “I danced with Sarah Paulson last night also Flow is my favorite movie of all time cuz it’s a story about friendship. Thanks to the Academy Awards and Vanity Fair for having me. I never get to sing like that and what I did was brave and scary as [hell] for me. I know a lot of people didn’t like it but a lot of people did and I feel good that I pushed myself. The song is a classic and I put a lot of work into it but the nerves got to me and a bitch hit some flats. I can’t wait to do something like that again. What a blessing that was. I feel amazing about the whole thing. Bye.” She popped up in her own comments a few minutes later, to add, “Also ALL the girls chewed down last night. God BLESS them all. Absolutely gorgeous performances from everyone.”
