The truest form of 'I don't want to be pretty I wanna be iconic'

[@tilatsiddiqui3969]

Mr dodjah with the tojjah ain’t pretty or iconic, just another helliweird satanick masonick entertainment industry created sellout deceiver and gender inverted male that’s been gaslighting the public by masquerading as a less than mediocre female entertainer and laughably as a model allegedly?

[@szumaktv4038]

she is pretty and iconic at the same time.

[@ravindrabanchhod1579]

hahaha!

[@maxinewells7539]

I love that Doja is starting to share her self with us more like her mom & aunt being a painter. I always felt like she had some huge walls up to protect herself. Or used humor as a self preservation.

[@occasionallyemo]

Her mum & grandmother being a painter isn’t a secret. She has mentioned this various times in interviews for years now.

[@rses916]

She def uses humor for protection.

[@APennyForYourThots]

It's not news though. Her father is also a South African actor, filmmaker and producer. She's got creativity in her blood.

[@Loveisfun123]

As a fan, I’ve never been surprised by her shaving her head and her brows. Her saying “it gives artists a canvas” is so on brand. She loves expressing herself. It’s one of my favorite things about her.

[@aminahreviewsstuff]

She drew her own eyebrows lol

She seems happier and more relaxed ever since she shaved her head because she doesn't feel so stressed out about her appearance.

i just love how big of an artist she become. her version of pop girl is rather more fun and edgy, very whimsical and artistic. i love everything she does ❤️

[@mahlatse8605]

I love what she's doing. It's creative, I'm tired of artists lately just being basic. Arive in an egg or something... they have the ability and freedom to do crazy looks, I don't know why they stopped. Have y'all seen the red carpets lately? It's like the outfit could be pulled off any fast fashion store.

[@onemorestepvlogs5937]

Maybe it’s because everything gets boring after a while, and even extravagant, provocative stuff, and then being basic becomes the new “new” in the midst of the exaggerated masquerade.

i love that she is always going to be herself no matter how famous she is or how many people are watching her. there are so many celebrities who change who they are to be more appealing to the GP or suppress their own personalities out of fear of being watched 24/7 but i commend doja’s refusal to conform.

Doja is so dope! She’s a theatrical artist who’s really in it to be creative and challenge herself. True artist break barriers and follow their own lane. It’s refreshing to see Doja. She reminds me of when I first saw Lil Kim merge high fashion with music.
