Overview
- Doja Cat posted on X on Thursday asking Elon Musk to reinstate the platform’s public “audio post” feature while using a string of derogatory insults directed at him.
- Her messages included specific barbs such as “frog build looking bitch,” “barrel chested ewok” and “hairless no-neck havin, chimpanzee,” which were widely shared by other users.
- The audio post feature — the public voice-notes tool that users reported disappeared in early 2025 — is still unavailable on feeds though voice memos can be sent in direct messages.
- There was no immediate response from Musk or X after Doja Cat’s posts, and the exchange follows earlier public clashes between the artist and Musk, including a 2022 display-name dispute.
- The episode underscores ongoing user backlash over product changes since Musk’s 2022 takeover and adds to broader scrutiny of X’s direction and recent regulatory and financial headlines involving Musk.
