“A lot of people think I’m not good at handling trolls because I respond to them,” she told the publication. “But that’s the art of it: I love to go to f**king war with trolls.”

“That’s just what I’ve grown up with; I’ve been on the internet for 1,000 f**king years and it’s just part of me: that I need to respond,” she continued. “People think, ‘Oh, if you’re defending yourself, you’re weak.’ But I always rest on ‘Everyone can suck my d**k from the back.’ … If somebody wants to fight me on the internet … I will gladly join in, balls to the wall. It’s fun for me. I’m a very messy b***h.”

Since Doja’s fame has grown, so has the tone in which she responds.

“It f**king sucks now that I can’t fully do my thing on Instagram Live,” she added. “Now I’m being flooded with people who have these preconceived f**king notions about me, and they come in and try to troll. Which I’m very good at handling.”

The conversation with Variety wasn’t limited to internet clapbacks. The multi-hyphenate knows how to pique others’ interest with her fashion sense.

Doja Cat’s manager, Gordon Dillard, explained to Variety, “It’s a performance everywhere we are. If we pop up at a party, it’s a performance. If she goes and reads a book, I’m sure it’s gonna be a performance. That’s her personality. I think Doja is our generation’s Madonna or Lady Gaga, as far as her capabilities, and we’ve just scratched the surface. We are planning for the long haul, as far as her businesses, and as far as potentially joining the film and TV world. … We’re always planning long-term and working our way backwards.”

Doja Cat is up for many awards at Sunday night’s Grammys, including record of the year as well as best pop solo performance and best music video for “Woman.”
