one thing that annoys me about the internet is how quickly they forget about a person's controversies as soon as they do something ‘iconic’ or even just have a good fashion moment, song, album or movie. they only seem to care about their wrongdoings momentarily before they're looking for the next person to hunt down. for me personally, if someone really annoys you then you can just block or unfollow at the click of a button. simple.

The doja stuff is kind of funny bc people talk about this like people are only mad about the demon stuff or her not being parasocial, when it's really about her weirdo bf and the way she basically blocked a fan that was a victim of his who just let her know about him and what happened to them. that's at least why i do not care for her.

the way kanye always diminishes women's accomplishments needs to be studied

Posting this just as Doja posted herself with a Nazi on her shirt. And people were calling her out on Twitter & I immediately thought.. man.. y’all are gonna stream her again once she drops another hit 🤦🏽‍♀️. I wish there was more repercussions for being a shitty human being but alas .. it’s usually just temporary collective anger

Personally, if i dont like a celeb im blocking them on social media and never supporting their projects… no hate watching from me😭

i would disagree on the point that the doja hate online was bc of the parasocial relationship stuff. it was very likely a part of it, but a huge reason from my personal observation was her blocking people on twt who were telling her that her current boyfriend groomed/took advantage of them. not to mention how doja then went on to demonize a filipino food (balut) out of ignorance, inciting further criticism. the people i’ve seen choosing to stop supporting her aren’t doing so out of a misplaced sense of parasocial betrayal, but bc they don’t want to support someone who seemingly doesn’t care if her partner is an abuser, demonizes cultural foods to be edgy, and now proudly wears a shirt with a neo nazi on it

No matter how much someone is hated there will always be that group of supporters that will give them a platform. Cancel culture is a myth. If anything, "cancelling" someone gives them more attention and sympathy.

The difference is that nicki had a full industry going against her ☠️

Zoe got cancelled real quick after dissing Will Smith in that insta caption. I don’t know how the internet did it but they dug back up a video of her saying some inappropriate things to Jaden Smith when she was like 20 something and Jaden was like 13-14 on some interview thing. (For the people that didn’t know)

Heres my take. People dont like it when internet personalities reach to a point if success and virality that is unattainable. For example tube girl. Every gurl on tiktok was admiring her "bravery" for filming in public and tried to emulate that confidence and thus made a trend. After a certain point of her success people started calling her cringe and hating all her because the tube girl who was once just a nobody filming a video is now a tiktok sensation which is getting attention from other celebrities wanting to use that fame and fashion brands inviting her to shows to boost their relvance. At the end of the day some people just want "normal" people to stay small for themselves to enjoy but when they start monetizing off that success they start hating on her because they contributed to something they didnt relize could get her to a point that is unreachable to them and gets jealous

Also I think people have genuinely lost the ability to just be happy for others. I will admit I was annoyed when Ice Spice's name kept popping up everywhere, but at a certain point I had to stop and acknowledge how amazing it is that she's blown up out of nowhere and is collaborating with all these huge artists and how it must be a dream come true for her, like it would be for anyone, and now I'm just happy for her success. Misery loves company.

Yeah I feel like this video definitely missed the mark about WHY a lot of these people are hated and maybe it doesn’t “matter” in the grand scheme of things of what makes them popular (though I would say infamous is a better word) but a lot of the people (featured in this video at least) receive ‘hate’ for genuinely problematic behavior such as being or supporting predators and SAers, being or supporting racist or making racist remarks, genuinely being bullies themselves whether cyber or otherwise, etc. and people are rightly speaking up about it online. Now, it’s hard to tell this to chronically online people, but unfortunately no matter how just, a lot of those problematic behaviors and actions aren’t making it offline, so if you didn’t go on the internet in the past week, how would you know not to stream a certain album or watch a certain movie? So I think sadly because many people do not ensure that the entertainment they consume doesn’t come from problematic people or genuinely don’t care, that is why internet ‘hate’ doesn’t translate to irl cancelling. But I don’t think that’s a valid enough excuse to keep supporting these people who we know are problematic just because it may not fully cancel them.

Ppl have been calling normani irrelevant since 2020, but the thing is, she'll never be irrelevant because they wont let her be because they wont stop talking about her lmaoooo ppl who r irrelevant are bot talked about constantly and alot of ppl dont realize this. Thats why she can drop a song once every 2 years and go off into hiding because she knows that shes created enough of an impact that everything she does ppl are gonna check for her. No matter how irrelevant she is, as soon as she announces shes putting out a video, stans and haters alike, will stop and give her attention every single time. She has not dropped any music nir has she done anything and she's trending on Twitter right now lol Chlöe gets ppl soooo triggered online and even tho she sold 10,000 copies of her album, she still had a sold out tour with every person in the crowd singing all of her songs word for word lmao Someone reposted saweeite eating fries at McDonald's and said "what if celebrities promoted a healthy lifestyle to our communities?" But you literally couldve posted about Mya who promotes spirituality and veganism lmaooo they make what they claim is important irrelevant by giving what they dont like more attention. energy grows where ur attention flows. Like it or not.

I would love to hear more on how cyber bullying is just normal now. Like no matter WHAT the video is there is a flood of negative comments. Especially on Instagram. I’ve even been trying to catch myself and make sure my comment is not just hate but since there’s so many actual hate comments even constructive criticism gets seen as hate. It’s hard not to get sucked in even if you’re not commenting at all but overall there is way too much hate and I don’t understand why. Let people live unless it’s truly harmful

This is why ppl need to stop idolising celebrities. Theyre not perfect. They do stuff that dosnt align with your morals. Just enjoy the art and thats it

i was considering buying tickets just 2 days ago to doja’s concert. the whole nazi photo is where i draw the line. she’s so deep in those rooms and incel internet. i had no clue who that man was till yesterday!

Lets be real lmao, misogynistic straight men hate Cardi B. Most women and gay dudes are either fine with her or outright love her. I literally saw a comment thread on r/PopCultureChat earlier today where some women were saying her song Be Careful helped them leave their cheating boyfriends or comforted them during their divorces. It was very sweet.

People also underestimated the power of a diverse fanbase when it came to Doja. No offense to christians but y’all really don’t realize there’s an entire world out there full of different cultures, social norms & spiritual practices that don’t align with yours. What y’all perceive as devils, demons & ghouls aren’t going to trigger the same response in communities who don’t subscribe to your doctrine. Basically the world doesn’t revolve around y’all lol.

And now Doja Cat has worn a shirt of that N*z! guy Sam and posted it. When she has a Jewish mother. What is she doing and where is her PR team? 😟

All I know is that Ashley Tisdale never got cancelled for being the high duchess of a musical cannibalistic cult and that's mother.

Guess it’s hard to dislike somebody when they make music u love

“Sympathy & payola”

Recently she posted a pic wearing a Nazi shirt with no shame... I officially give up on her lol

I love all of your videos imuRgency! I love your humor and how you talk about nuanced topics.

I love your laugh and smile!

Her giving free advertisement to that right wing guys… thats not right

i’m so glad you brought up lipgloss cause omg did i love her videos and outtakes on basically everything. she literally just made me so happy when she posted. i was so sad when she was getting all the hate like it was not fair like at all! 😕 she was def the realest

always love your content

Brother, Doja cat was mad people told her to delete her post with a neo nazi on her shirt… like… it’s bit more than her just having “fun” 😂

As they say: all press is good press

This is why i dont like joining fandoms because, for example, i like a few songs by doja Cat, but that wouldn't necessarily make me a fan, but I appreciate a few of her songs. So people like me wouldn't be fased if these artists get into controversies because it wasn't that deep and would continue to listen to songs we like but not actively defend the artist. That's why i think paint the town read went no. 1 because even if there's controversy, which shouldn't even be that big of a deal, haters will still not go to the extent to never listening to her songs again because they know deep down that it wasn't that deep

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS SO MUCH ❤

Random but I’d love to read your thesis 😭😭😭

I really see the effort you put into this video especially with the research and credits!! Your points made sense and to think you already wrote a thesis about this topic KUDOS!!👏👏 I really enjoyed this.

Tbh I think the reason Doja won’t be cancelled is cause her music is genuinely really creative and groundbreaking and she’s the only MAINSTREAM black girl artist who is diversifying the rap industry by experimenting with pop and R&B.

I always see people saying that it only works on people of color yet we have Doja or Nicki

Plz make a video about ppl hating fun always

Now that the strike has ended, could you review the Sandman?Season 2 is supposed to come out at some point and it's one of my favorite shows at the moment.

i think what people don't realize is that the things celebrities get hate or "cancelled" for, just aren't taken that seriously by the vast majority, and the outrage is coming from the vocal minority. and in many cases: even the vocal minority themselves deep down feel like the controversies are not serious enough to stop supporting said celebrity if they're talented or attractive. example: some celeb wore a clothing or had a hairstyle that was cultural appropriation. sure they'll get backlash from the "big" users on a social media platform, and others will follow said big user and also condemn the celebrity. but at the end of the day, deep down, most people dgaf. they dont think cultural appropriation is that serious to stop supporting the artist. another example: a celebrity is close to a person with SA allegations (aka a lot of these female artists dating awful men). yes the outrage is there, but it's performative. because at the end of the day: most people don't care enough to stop liking or supporting said celebrity. they dont think being guilty by association holds that much weight. even less so when it's allegations, and not a confirmed conviction.

Dababy taking this personally

oh spill!!

Doja cat supporting the neo nazi with her shirt is too far. I was a Doja apologist but I’m doneee with her.

Not the Zoe Kravitz shade 😭

NEW VID 💗💗💗

2:48 The fully hate fun 😭😭💀

This aged a bit poorly because the album sales were very low for her stature and the N@zi shirt is causing people to pull out of the concert

“There is no such thing as bad press-“a tale as old as time

I think that with Doja, she’s trying to dead those parasocial relationships so bad that she’s turning the rest of us who are fans of her music off. Like I can see that she’s a troll but this recent post with the t shirt, I’m so turned off by her and her music. I really hope that she can realize that there are some of us that want to see her succeed and do more but this is getting really bad. Idk maybe that makes me a fake fan for saying that but I truly want to see her do better unlike other fan bases who don’t care what they do.

hey rumi :) i really like these kind of videos you do but i do miss your tv reviews. There have been many british and international shows and movies added to netflix (and new seasons) as those aren't affected by the writer's strike. Are you considering making reviews for those? For example sex ed s4, everything now and love at first sight. (all british i think). I'd LOVE your review on these

I only know who doja cat is because of people being mad at her recently so yeah I would say that proves ur point

With Doja people steamed music and cardi got people screaming....at someone else's consert....and she herself cant sell tickets

I listened to her latest album yesterday based on this video... The second half of "Scarlet" is everything! A day later, she's wearing a bigot on a shirt. I feel 🙃🤡.

Coraline. I know its a bit off topic from the usual content, but I think its a good movie. fair warning, its a little weird, and scary at some parts.

I think the phrase 'cancel culture' was created by a demographic that looked from the outside in on how events unfold. Perhaps the fact that people are held accountable is scary to some people, even scarier to these people is that sometimes people get more visibility whatever they do. But there has never been 'cancel culture' or 'wokeness' as such - at least here in Europe, not in the US either. It's just a new kind of awareness and the whole complex system social media, fandoms, toxicity and the whole attention economy of it all creates. This is sometimes difficult to navigate to anyone. What comes to fandoms, they can become very aggressive and fast. ETA: I liked your analysis. I think 'drama' channels should watch this. And to a certain degree I think drama channels actually are aware of 'attention economy' and no longer even use the phrases 'cancel culture' etc.

lil nas x being on the dsmp was the most random part of promotional content ive ever seen

Can you do a thoughts/review video on the latest season of sex education pls!

I know right!?????

Contrainess

people are stupid online, if you don't like something or someone, stop paying attention to them, I don't know ice spice and I don't even play any doja cat songs. She disappointed me, for me artists who treat their fans badly don't deserve my attention

when people have genuine criticisms of the success of public figures, the vast majority of which have backing from major corporations and marketing teams, those people just "hate fun"?

PLEASE talk about how everyone hates fun now

I thought people were saying the album flopped?

you can state that "cancel culture doesn't work" but that seems like it's not really being objective. the fact of the matter is that the social media age has compelled people to care more about what values artists actually represent and where the money of the consumer is going, and thats not a discussion to just shut down media illiteracy you have touched on and the pervasiveness of industry marketing machines are a barrier that the masses need to overcome in order to actually see the values of a popular artist, its not just that society is so fucking cynical it doesn't care about supporting people who make selfish or cruel decisions

2:42 and 9:00 im a woman of my word I tweeted about the doja situation and best believe I unfollowed and unhearted all her socials and music and stopped bumping her stuff after. I don't play when I'm done your abolished from my life lol. edit: when her song came on in the car I told my parents to turn it off and they listened😂😂

None of this is new, people have been saying all through out media history that "there's no such thing as bad press". The musical "Chicago" was made on Broadway in the 1970s about women committing murders in the 1920s to get written about in the papers to then become famous jazz singers. We all know by now that being polarizing and appealing to negativity translates to views.

If you think about it, it’s nothing new, as much as it feels like it is due to today’s heavy association with social media. Remember how hated/controversial Tyler the creator was when he first stepped on the scene 😂 went from that to a very much loved legend.

It's true especially if your canceling talnted people or people with a lot of money

never been this early slay

Doja was being called out for dating a pedo that's when she started the "hating fans" gimmick and the fact that you left that out is weird

Why you change the thumbnail lol

Mua's are making a transition to every. Single. Doja. Song.

I feel like this is also how the kardashians got famous as well

luv u but we want VLOGS!!!!

Abouoooout Doja…. Did y’all forget her posting a racist dog whistle? Like? Then deleting it as SOON as she got backlash??? I hope this was filmed before that picture cause this ain’t something that happened years ago 😂 this JUST happened maybe two months ago.

You can’t really blame the people when that was THEIR intention to start with. Manipulation and manipulating people into giving you attention is a thing right so…yeah. She’s blocked everywhere for me including Spotify. I suggest you do the same if you’re tired of people like her gaining attention by creating negativity.

She just got into another scandal so we’ll see a video from you again on this 😂

9:40 its really not just religious imagery that is the problem lol she has heavily hinted at supporting racist people....

Can't wait for the sex education ending video!

im happy to dive in because fame doesn’t always equal actual money 💰 you can become famous and go broke

Doja had attention before she was hated. Also her music is just really good and appeals to what's cool at the moment

Wait what problematic photos?

for me, even as a christian, the demonic things idc as much, the same old story and same old aesthetic. HER BOYFRIEND??? HER NAZI SHIRT???

I literally don’t listen to Nicki or Ice spice and Doja’s new stuff by choice and I’m not into influencer culture at all. But I know I’m in the minority and I know I’m not the target audience at the age of 37. This is just not my era and that’s okay for me.

Ice and Doja need to be banished from Hollywood all together.

The thing about doja is she is one of the new generation girls that are talented and her music is catchy and people like it and liked her she didnt need demon antics to sell her music people like her already. She is still doing good cause people like her music no one in rap is making music like her its all ass ass ass, he music is different. We in desperate need for more upcoming talented artists. Cardi : unfortuntly not talented people liked her persnality although these days people find her loud obnoxious and annoying. Megan: talented rapper but her music isn't good or cormercial it's repetitive and people tird of twerking also don't like her anymore. personality fake. Coi: no one checking for her Latto: no fans she can't win without features Ice: trending right now but not talented. Swaeetie: fell off ( no talent) Glorilla: fell off (no talent) Doja: talented all rounded artist: antics are throwing a few people off. But people still like her music.

If you think he's a neo nazi, youre lost lol I used to think i was average intelligence, but ever since 2020 I've realized I'm actually way fucking smarter than average

Nah bobbi although had an interview with drake after like 2 interviews... that's a plant

Bad take on Doja 😂

Ariana Grande

I dont reslly care if doja car did satanic symbolism worse than any metal band of the 80s or lil nas x, i kinda care more about the whole supporting the neo nazi that gave thousands of dollars to a neo nazi hate group, i think thats worse ngl

I can’t believe Doja cat wore a shirt of a mass killer

UUMMMMMMMMMMM Where is my Sex Education Season 4 review? >.>

Lolol we were all hopeful, but the strike is not going to end anytime soon sad face

Who is Deja Cat? She must not be that famous and this maybe paid gig that give her negative clout. its clear she not serious as she posting and delete. hahahahaha!

as a filipina woman, i just wanna say the way doja named one of her songs “balut” and tried to explain the meaning of it in such a wrong way feels gross af, also adding to the gross af vibes for being a sexual assaulter’s ignorant gf

Doja cat rocking the Sam hyde shooter tee is funny. I gurantee it wasn't her call to crop his face out the picture and remove it.

Thank you 🙏🏾 I feel this! Doja Cat should be canceled, same with the Paul Brothers and Amber Heard

Sam Hyde did nothing wrong Doha kat is based

Factor_ really replaced HelloFresh just like that. 💅
