Fatherless Behaviour: Doja Cat Cusses Deadbeat Dad
Doja Cat, whose real name is Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini, recently made headlines with a controversial social media post targeting her father, Dumisani Dlamini.
The 1995-born US singer is the daughter of the South African actor and musician and his former partner, Deborah Elizabeth Sawyer.
Doja has been open about her unconventional relationship with her father, even stating that she had not yet met him in the past. In 2022, Dumisani, known for his role as Chester in the popular SABC 1 series “Yizo Yizo,” claimed to have travelled to New York to spend time with his “baby.”
In an Instagram post over the weekend, Doja Cat threw shade at her father, Dumisani Dlamini.
The quirky singer posted a pic of her face and behind with the caption: “Dad, lemme know when/if you need me to re-up your makeup cabinet cuz you a b**ch.”

Earlier this month, Doja fired shots at Dumisani when she posted on her X bio: “My dad’s a deadbeat, but I did well.”
Dumisani Dlamini attempted to set the record straight about his relationship with Doja Cat.
Explaining how he fathered the star, Dumisani revealed he had remained in New York for another 15 years after starring in the Broadway musical Voices of Sarafina alongside Leleti Khumalo and Mbongeni Ngema.
The actor revealed that he had then met Deborah and fathered two children with her, one of them being Doja Cat.
However, Dumisani claimed he returned to South Africa after experiencing “homesickness”. He also claimed that he planned to bring his US family back to South Africa – a move which never materialised.
