The internet was highly amused when Stranger Things actor Noah Schnapp posted direct messages between himself and singer Doja Cat, but the pop star was not happy about it.
Doja Cat messaged Schnapp to ask about his co-star Joseph Quinn’s contact info so she could slide into his DMs. The teen actor subsequently shared the private messages on his TikTok.
However, he apparently did so without Doja Cat’s permission, as she followed up with a TikTok live to complain about it.
Daily Dot reported Doja Cat went live to call his actions "f**ked up."
She continued:
The fact that Noah did that is so unbelievably socially unaware and whack. That’s like borderline snake sh*t… that’s like weasel sh*t.”
Schnapp has since deleted the TikTok.
But people mostly took 17-year-old Schnapp’s side in the mini feud.

They thought it was weird 26-year-old Doja Cat messaged Schnapp in the first place.
\u201c@ROCHERD1996 @NbaSyrue @PopCrave Why is she sliding into a minor's DMs?\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1657253661
\u201c@PopCrave this yalls fave attacking a minor \ud83e\udd74\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1657253661
\u201c@PopCrave attacking a minor? she can\u2019t be serious\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1657253661
\u201c@PopCrave he didn't mean any harm though calling him snake & everything is weird and why dm a 17 year old to hook you up with a grown man\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1657253661
\u201c@PopCrave What did she expects from a teenager? \ud83d\udc80 Why she is dming a 17 y/o on the first place\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1657253661
\u201c@PopCrave She\u2019s almost 30 and beefing with a 17 year old over a simple dm that people related to her over like nothing about it was bad.\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1657253661

\u201c@PopCrave Doja Cat he\u2019s a 17 yr. old teenager (minor) and u being the adult shouldn\u2019t been asking him to play matchmaker anyway. That\u2019s kinda weird in itself.\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1657253661
One user made an informal poll to see how the majority was feeling about who to blame, and Doja Cat "won."
\u201c@PopCrave Who do we blame\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1657253661
Some of Doja Cat's fans agreed as a celebrity, Schnapp should have asked permission before making the TikTok.
\u201c@PopCrave Yeah he shouldn\u2019t have shown the DMs but she\u2019s totally over exaggerating because she\u2019s embarrassed \ud83d\udc80\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1657253661
\u201c@PopCrave he\u2019s famous. whatever you feel about doja messaging him (they are mutually celebrities, so idk why y\u2019all want to make it weird.. is it weird for his costars [older than doja] to talk to him?) he should know not to post a private conversation with an A LIST celebrity.\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1657253661
Schnapp nor Quinn have responded yet to Doja Cat’s comments.
