Tyrese says someone in Doja Cat's life needs to "love her into a better self.”

Tyrese says that he's praying Doja Cat is able to find a "better self," after she shared a concerning new selfie on Instagram, Sunday. The post features Doja with pink hair and acne on her forehead. It's captioned, "thirst trap," with a kissing emoji.

“I don't think this is funny at all," Tyrese commented on the post. "l just hope and pray that somebody who loves her shows up for her to love her from where she is and try and love her into a better self.” Despite several other concerned comments, many fans did come to Doja's defense. One wrote: "Y'all are so boring… I bet you all posted 'free Britney' but can't handle a bit of goofiness.. Ofc Doja is cr*zy when she isn't giving you a semi 24/7." Another added: "How Supposedly everyone hate her but she get half a million likes in 30min ? Make it make sense."

The Instagram post comes just days after the release of Doja's latest music video, “Paint The Town Red.” The piece is themed around various satanic images. “Yeah, bitch, I said what I said / I’d rather be famous instead / I let all that get to my head / I don’t care, I paint the town red," she raps on the song.

Doja previously faced backlash on social media after calling out her fanbase. While deriding the nickname, "kittenz," Doja wrote to her audience: “I don’t cause I don’t even know y’all. Nobody forced you idk why you’re talking to me like you’re my mother bitch you sound like a cr*zy person.”
