‘Bitch, I said what I said / I’d rather be famous instead.’ It feels fitting that Doja Cat, the reigning queen of internet-born chaos turned stadium-scale superstardom, is bringing her world tour to Bangkok this December. On December 18, IMPACT Exhibition Hall 5-6 will turn into a neon-tinted playground as she lands with the ‘Ma Vie World Tour’.
Doja Cat has always been something of a shapeshifter. She started uploading tracks to Soundcloud at 16, teaching herself to bend piano chords into slick beats and twisting childhood dance lessons into a stage presence that looks half pop deity, half cartoon villain. Growing up in Los Angeles, her sonic DNA absorbed Busta Rhymes, Erykah Badu, Nicki Minaj and Drake, but it was her 2018 upload ‘MOOO!’ – that broke the internet and catapulted her far beyond cult status.
Since then, she has refused to slow down. The Grammy winner has headlined Outside Lands, dropped the deluxe Scarlet 2 CLAUDE, and sent singles into stratospheric Billboard territory. ‘Paint The Town Red’ topped the Hot 100 for three weeks and ruled the Global 200 for four. ‘Agora Hills’ hit number-one on Top 40 Radio earlier this year, her eighth time conquering the format. At this point, she’s less chart-topper than cultural shorthand.
Her live shows are another beast entirely. At Outside Lands this summer, she unveiled ‘Jealous Type’ mid-set, then casually hosted a secret after-party at San Francisco’s iconic drag venue Oasis, spinning her unreleased album Vie to a room of lucky insiders. The stunt summed up her career so far: audacious, playful, and impossible to predict. Now, Southeast Asia gets its turn, and Bangkok will be one of the cities swept into her storm.
Her Asia dates read like a whistle-stop sprint through pop capitals:
- Manila, December 7
- Singapore, December 10
- Seoul, December 13
- Tokyo, December 15
- Bangkok, December 18
- Kaohsiung, December 21
