Doja Cat sparked a wave of curiosity and concern after her bold appearance at the 2025 iHeartRadio Wango Tango music festival, where her daring chainmail dress revealed a noticeable change in her breast area. Fans quickly noticed the shift, prompting the Grammy-winning rapper to speak out about her recent plastic surgery complication.
Doja Cat Addresses Plastic Surgery Mishap
On May 10, 2025, Doja Cat, whose real name is Amala Dlamini, took to X (formerly Twitter) to address the issue, urging people to avoid commenting on her appearance. She posted, “Don’t clock my contracted implant it’s all I ask.”
The visible change was linked to capsular contracture, a condition that occurs when scar tissue forms around a breast implant, sometimes causing the implant to shift or become misshapen. This can result in both aesthetic changes and physical discomfort. The condition is a known complication after breast augmentations, according to the American Society for Plastic Surgeons and the NHS.
Doja Cat’s Past Procedures
This is not the first time the rapper has openly discussed her cosmetic procedures. Back in March 2023, Doja Cat revealed that she had undergone a breast reduction and liposuction. She confirmed that her new cup size was 32C and clarified that the procedure did not involve fat transfer. At the time, she also mentioned being in the early stages of recovery, with an expected full healing time of about three months.
Fan Reactions and Support
Despite the noticeable shift in her breast implant, fan reactions were overwhelmingly supportive, with many expressing confusion over the term “contracted implant.” Others took the opportunity to show empathy for the rapper, while some critics continued to focus on her appearance. Known for her bold and unapologetic persona, Doja Cat did not shy away from responding to online backlash.
A Contrasting Met Gala Appearance
Earlier in May, Doja Cat attended the 2025 Met Gala in a Marc Jacobs hourglass blazer bodysuit that kept her figure under wraps. The Met Gala look was a stark contrast to her Wango Tango appearance, where her low-cut aquamarine dress exposed the complications in her breast implant.
Defending Her Choices
Doja Cat has consistently defended her appearance and the choices she makes regarding her body. In the past, she’s been candid about her shaved head and eyebrows, confronting critics with her signature bluntness, saying, “Go f* yourselves**.” Her latest response about her plastic surgery complications follows in the same fearless tone.
Moving Forward
While the visible shift in her implant caused concern, Doja Cat’s transparency about the situation shows her continued comfort with addressing personal topics in the public eye. With her usual confidence and swagger, the rapper continues to break barriers—whether through her music or by sharing her life openly with her fans.
