This is a bad take. She’s embarrassed by her own embarrassing actions becoming public and is now publicly lashing out at a minor.

A 26-year-old made romantic/sexual overtures towards a 17-year-old, and the takeaway is:

When you burn yourself on your own hot take.

Jezebel follows up with shitty article that sides with Doja because......teen is a male??? and DM’s are more important than using a teen to facilitate Doja’s perverted solicitation of a coworker?

No, she’s trying to fuck a 29 year-old, and hit up a 17 year-old to get his contact info. Go back and read the whole thing and actually pay attention this time. 

Hey, Emily, don’t be a hack. Respond to these criticisms of your terrible take where you blame a child for an adult’s predatory behavior.

Holy shit. What the fuck is wrong with you, Emily?

Doja is an adult, messaging a child actor, asking him to help her sleep with his adult co-star.

THAT is what happened here.  Fuck right off with this horrible take.

Doja cat is consistently problematic and stupid. she frequently gets on instagram live and says vile, shitty stuff about people a lot less powerful, rich, and famous than she is. as many have pointed out, it’s really fucking weird she DM’d noah for this purpose. but it is infuriating that this article treats doja like…

Famous 26-year-old Female Singer DMs Underaged Male Child Actor To Facilitate Sexual Encounter With Another

Maybe, but we love to see accountability for rising movie stars who typically go on to be entitled fuckboys, and this is probably a good way for Schnapp to learn not to violate a woman’s privacy. If a little shit shared my DM slides, I’d probably be pissed too.

Pushes for Lizzo to keep publicly harassing Chris Evans... Sides with anti-vaxxer Doja for what is ultimately a harmless mistake, since, as is pointed out in the article, EVERYONE ALREADY KNEW HOW SHE FELT.

I realize that everyone is focusing on doja but shouldn’t we also be discussing the fact that the person who wrote this is not only also weirdly fantasizing about a child but also in all likelihood even older than doja?

“Doja Cat private messages minor in sexual solicitation attempt; publicly bashes teen afterward” 

Fixed the headline.

You realize Doja Cat fabricated this whole episode on purpose to ride a little of that Stranger Things hype currently making the rounds, right?

DM sharing is not cool, but it seems yall are overlooking the fact that Doja was being a real creep in the first place. And then to embarrass the kid like that on stage is just frankly a cunty thing to do.

OMG this EXACTLY. You’re a grown woman asking a teen to hook you up with a co-star? And then drag said teen for talking about it? Take ALL the seats. Plus, calling Noah a snake or weasel will def not help you get a date with Quinn who I’m sure has much for affection for Noah than a woman he’s never met. Great…

This all damn day. Doja sent an unsolicited DM to a teen asking for help hooking up with his co-worker. Dude. This is the problem. Also, it’s 2022 and she’s still out here assuming that internet messages are private. This is the embodiment of “play stupid games, win stupid prizes.”  

Maybe, but we love to see accountability for rising movie stars who typically go on to be entitled fuckboys, and this is probably a good way for Schnapp to learn not to violate a woman’s privacy. If a little shit shared my DM slides, I’d probably be pissed too.

Before the Kinjapocalypse you could click on a review for an unimportant midseason episode of a show nobody remembered one year after it ended, and you’d get comments in the triple digits.

It’s really a shame how TV recaps/reviews have all but vanished from the AV Club. Some of the better ones made for reading that was almost as entertaining as the shows themselves.
