Doja Cat Slams Trolls For ‘Disrespectful’ Britney Spears Shaved Head Comparisons

Doja Cat is over “incredibly disrespectful” internet trolls comparing her buzzcut to Britney Spears, who shaved her head nearly 20 years ago in one of pop culture’s most jarring moments.

In August, the Grammy-winner stunned fans when she debuted her cleanly shaven noggin on Instagram before shaving off her eyebrows live on camera while more than 20,000 Instagram viewers watched.

Since then, critics on social media have questioned the rapper’s newfound look, with some connecting Doja to Spears’ shaving off her hair in 2007 before being placed in a conservatorship.

The “Woman” crooner then addressed the real reason behind her exasperation with the swirling rumors behind her new look, explaining she shaved her head because she rarely showed her natural hair in her work.

She also nodded to the fact that she’s spent most of her career wearing wigs, adding that she always felt like she was “never supposed to have hair” in the first place.

“I don’t like having hair. I cannot tell you one time since the beginning of my life that I’ve ever been like, ‘This is cool.’ I just do not like to have hair,” she said on Instagram at the time.

“I remember feeling so fucking exhausted with working out,” she continued, explaining that her wigs often slid off her head while exercising. “I’d…
