Manifesting (that you will get to hook up with that hot guy on a hit TV show) works (if you’re a pop star)! Doja Cat was spotted in London with Stranger Things and A Quiet Place: Day One star Joseph Quinn, according to internet gossip rag Deux Moi on August 18. “Doja Cat sighted at Dingwalls in Camden with Joseph Quinn,†the anon message read. “She chose the Osees over Taylor Swift tonight.†In the pic, Doja and Quinn are at Shacklewell Arms, a bar in London where the rock band the Osees performed on August 18. (Swift also performed in London, but not on August 18, for what it’s worth.)

Normally, a pop star hooking up with a famous hot actor is not a particularly revelatory happening. However, Doja Cat has famously had a hankering for Quinn for a while, as shown in 2022 DMs with a then-17-year-old Noah Schnapp, who posted Doja’s messages to him. In the screenshot, which Schnapp posted on TikTok, Doja asks him via Instagram DM if Quinn has “a gf,†to which Schnapp responds, “LMAOO slide into his DMs.†Doja says “he doesn’t have a dm to slide in,†and Schnapp sends her Quinn’s account. At the time, Doja went on Instagram Live and called Schnapp’s posting the DMs “socially unaware and wack†and also “weasel shit.†Looks like she still weaseled her way into the right guy.
