Especially for a female in the industry. I kinda read behind the lines that she was trying to say she’s sick of being objectified but feels she has to do it for her career. Many women feel like this in the industry, that they have to take photo shoots every now and then to sell their bodies and every now and then sit down to answer silly questions about their personal lives. This pressure isn’t there as much for the male artists tbh. I think the way she worded things came across as insensitive complaining though, as she didn’t touch on the points I mentioned explicitly but you could tell she was implying them.

It's the same thing, different job, different problems and they can all affect your psyche in negative way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eido 3,483 Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Y'all are weird saying she doesn't have the right to complain about being tired because she has a lot of money? She is still a human being and when work starts taking too much of a place in your life to the point where you start burning out, it's more than ok to complain Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s weird because it’s like if a middle-class person went to a third-world country and complained about their first-world problems to the people struggling to even stay alive.

Totally understand that doing celeb work and deals is tough AF but you do get the privilege of being paid accordingly AND of also being able to take sooo much time off that regular ppl cannot afford to do or else they will go broke or get fired. Naur this route of “complain but we’re still judging you” ain’t it. It’s like you’re hugging her while wearing a knife costume 😭 It’s the perfect opportunity to push for more working class job breaks, and we need more solidarity for that. Coming for her is just gonna create resentment in people who relate to her’s eyes and get us nowhere, when we could use Doja’s emotion and channel it into helping us all. 35 minutes ago, AJRocketMan said: The middle class doesn’t make up 70% of our population anymore.

She is still a human being and when work starts taking too much of a place in your life to the point where you start burning out, it's more than ok to complain if she wants to go back to the normal life she can anytime, but then she'd complain bcs she has a 9 to 5 and it's tiring. so really, what does she want us to do? some of us if not many we dont have options like she does, so yes it's annoying to hear a popstar complain about her life, unless she's being abused i dont see why u should complain on twitter, complain to ur other friends in the industry or ur mama. My reason is, when ur a millionaire, and Doja is probably worth 100M, not sure or 60M but she's very successful. If you're tired of working you can -Take a break, bcs ur a millionaire, and then come back and u can still have a career -Decrease amount of gigs, interviews etc -Stop her career, she can invest her millions in something that still generates money, real estate, a new business etc... What can we do as "normal" people when we are exhausted but we have to pay bills, food, taxes, debts etc? -Keep working, ur in a rat race, u can't do anything else, u have to keep going So yes she should shut up a little bit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikvs 2,576 Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Lmao celebrities can't really say **** anymore. It's very concerning to me that people invalidate her situation because she has money. Okay, then a person from the middle class that has to work 8 hr/day can't complain because there's poor people working 16 hr/day and they have it worse?

RAMROD 96,361 Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 IMHO people taking it differently because how it was said. Don't think it's because she can't express her feeling. But people misunderstood it cos she said it in a way that it seems very selfish of her to complain. She was candid there and at times it can feel a little off to some people by how she worded things.

Unless you are in Doja's shoes, you have no idea what you are talking about. Where were you when Gaga said the exact same thing as Doja, I swear to god, lol. Here you go, watch this video of your fave before you come for Doja. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how many get a say in their hours and additional job duties? Because I'm pretty sure Doja gets told all the stuff she gets to do over the course of however many albums she still has on her contract, with no definite date for release. And I'm pretty sure y'all could all go into business for yourselves without somebody necessarily scraping off the top of everything you do? Before you say "but she willingly signed the contract" she was 17 with the thought of doing what she loved for a living. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
