Doja Cat has called out Jennifer Hudson over her poor interviewing skills after Doja spoke about her first visit to South Africa.
Doja visited earlier this year while on tour, and it was a nerve-racking experience. Half her family is from Africa on her father’s side, and she’s never met him, so the trip meant a lot to her. She eventually travelled to Johannesburg, which she absolutely loved.
During the interview, after Doja had talked about her family connection, Jennifer asked what she had seen on safari. Doja spoke about warthogs, rhinos and elephants, even describing an older elephant teaching a younger one how to be a man.
Some viewers felt Jennifer missed the more personal part of the conversation. Doja was visiting a place connected to her family history for the first time, so people wanted to hear more about what that meant to her. I can understand that, because even though the safari stories were nice, there was a much more personal experience to ask about.
Doja has now responded herself. Underneath a post about Jennifer’s interview skills, she commented saying: “Gotta love her though”.
I like that she’s keeping things light rather than adding to the criticism.
Before you go, I wanna know… should Jennifer have explored Doja’s family connection more, or was the safari question fair enough?
