“[SNL] made a joke the other day that Doja Cat sounds like a Pokémon. And, you know, it didn’t hurt my feelings, but it definitely hurt my feelings.”

Doja’s stage name is derived from both her love of cats and a marijuana strain, though she quit smoking weed. Doja says, she tried to change her name over the years but an old manager convinced her not to. It all worked out in the end as her name has certainly helped her penetrate the minds of her fans.

In the interview she also shared that she regrets joking about Covid. During the early stages of the pandemic Doja joked on her Instagram Live saying, “Bitch, I’m not scared of a coronavirus or the motherf**king beer version of that s**t.” She regrets her comments now, having seen how “devastating” it has been to people.
