Doja Cat Just Dismissed A Chart-Topping Country Star β And Her Clapback Is Everything π€
Doja Cat said she doesn't "give a f--- about country music" and dissed Ella Langley's record-breaking hit "Choosin' Texas" β but the country star had the PERFECT response. This beef is heating up fast.
Stop scrolling, because we've got a fresh music feud brewing β and honestly? The pettiness is chef's kiss.
Country star Ella Langley just served the most delicious clapback to Doja Cat after the pop star basically pretended she didn't exist. Yes, really.
The Drama Started On A Podcast
It all kicked off when Doja appeared on the "Sundae Conversation" podcast and was asked if she was a fan of Langley. According to Page Six, Doja's response was brutal: "I don't know what that is."
She sounded out Langley's name a couple of times like she was trying to pronounce a foreign word, and when the hosts suggested she should check out her music, she just said, "OK." The shade of it all!
But wait β it got worse.
And Then Doja Doubled Down
On August 25, Doja went live on Instagram and really let it fly. "I really don't just give a f--- about country music, and I don't understand what's so hard to believe about that," she reportedly said, per E! News. "I never cared. I like that one Keith Urban song from 2004."
Ouch.
She did listen to Langley's smash hit "Choosin' Texas" on the stream and admitted the Alabama native has "a very pretty voice" and that the song is "very earwormy" and "catchy." But then came the kicker: "I don't like it, but that's fine."
The internet had THOUGHTS, obviously. Some people praised Doja for being authentic, while others accused her of lying about not knowing who Langley is β especially considering she's literally breaking records right now.
The Tea β
- Doja Cat claimed she didn't know who Ella Langley was during a podcast appearance
- She went live on Instagram to clarify she "doesn't give a f--- about country music"
- Langley fired back with a cheeky Instagram caption: "Ella Langley? What is that?"
- Langley's "Choosin' Texas" has spent 19 weeks at No. 1 on Billboard's Hot 100 β the longest-running No. 1 by a female country artist in HISTORY
Ella's Clapback Is Perfect
Rather than get into a back-and-forth war of words, Langley took the high road β with a side of petty we absolutely love.
She posted a carousel of new photos and videos to Instagram this week with a caption that said simply: "Ella Langley? What is that?"
ICONIC. She literally quoted Doja's dismissal back at her while looking fabulous and unbothered. The comments went OFF.
"We all know⦠Doja just wants to Be Her," one fan wrote.
Another commented, "Messy with that caption π it's what I'm here for."
But Let's Talk Numbers
Here's the thing: both artists are crushing it in their own lanes.
Doja has racked up billions of streams, multiple multi-platinum songs, and won a Grammy in 2022 with SZA for "Kiss Me More." She's a certified pop culture icon.
But Ella? She's literally making HISTORY. Her hit "Choosin' Texas" has spent 19 weeks at the top of Billboard's Hot 100, according to Page Six, making it the longest-running No. 1 by a female country artist EVER.
That's not just a moment β that's a movement.
The Internet Is Divided
Naturally, fans of both artists came out swinging in the comments. Doja's supporters pointed out that she's allowed to have her own taste in music and doesn't have to pretend to like country just because it's popular.
Fair point!
But Langley's fans fired back that dismissing someone's record-breaking success as "not my vibe" feels a little... deliberate? Especially when country music is having its biggest crossover moment in years.
Either way, we are HERE for the drama. Music feuds hit different when both sides stay (mostly) classy while throwing shade.
What Happens Next?
Will Doja respond to Ella's cheeky caption? Will they end up collaborating on a country-pop fusion track that breaks the internet? (Honestly, we'd stream it.)
For now, Ella seems perfectly content to let her chart dominance do the talking while Doja keeps doing her pop thing. And you know what? We respect both approaches.
