April Cover Star Doja Cat on Taxidermy, Touring, and Therapy

On this Wednesday’s episode of The Run-Through , Doja Cat— Vogue ’s April cover star and the host of the second annual Vogue Vintage Market —calls in from her dining room in Los Angeles. Accompanied by her cat Axel, the 30-year-old rapper shares behind-the-scenes moments from her cover shoot with photographer Willy Vanderperre and Vogue ’s contributing style director, Carlos Nazario; gets into her interest in taxidermy (she recently acquired “the ass of a bovine”); and describes what her life looks like during breaks from her Tour Ma Vie World Tour: “Downtime for me is, I put on a heating blanket and play Fortnite, or I watch Judy Justice .” But she is also thinking ahead—about various tour logistics; about the one major outfit she wears per performance (she keeps staring at sketches for next week’s look without quite knowing what they’ll become). She’s also on the Met Gala host committee this year, but has yet to decide what she’ll turn up in. Elsewhere in the episode, Doja shares some of the revelations she’s had during her twice-weekly therapy sessions, along with her (surprisingly understated) go-to brands when she’s not onstage.

Hosted by Chloe Malle, Head of Editorial Content, Vogue U.S.; Chioma Nnadi, Head of British Vogue; and Nicole Phelps, Director of Vogue Runway, each episode features the latest fashion news and exclusive designer and celebrity interviews.
