Doja Cat’s Father Denies ‘Deadbeat’ Label, Says He Was Removed From Pretoria Show

Fresh claims challenge the narrative and center on his reported removal from her Pretoria concert.

Overview

  • Dumisani Dlamini says he was kicked out despite buying a ticket, with videos showing security escorting him from Pretoria’s SunBet Arena featured in Tuesday coverage.
  • The clash escalated after Doja Cat’s TikTok series The Deadbeat Chronicles, where she said he declined to attend because she did not message enough and that she sent him a gay porn link instead of a ticket.
  • In since-deleted Instagram videos, Dlamini denied abandoning his child and said Doja Cat’s mother, Deborah Sawyer, “brainwashed” her.
  • A woman claiming to be Doja Cat’s half-sister has added her account to the public back-and-forth, though her identity and details have not been independently verified.
  • Doja Cat performed at SunBet Arena on March 20 during her Tour Ma Vie run in South Africa, and she has not publicly answered her father’s latest claims as outlets split attention between the ejection video and his accusations against her mother.
