The internet is officially losing its mind after these two were spotted getting cozy together, and now, everyone want to know—are Doja Cat and Joseph Quinn dating? Let’s face it, stranger things have happened, so let’s unpack everything we know about this potential pair so far.
The dating rumors started after an anonymous tipster claimed they saw the duo at Dingwalls, a music and comedy joint in Camden, UK. Adding fuel to the fire, there’s even photo making the rounds on social media that seems to show the pair in a pretty tight embrace—you can see it down below.
Now, for those of you who aren’t Stranger Things fans, let me fill you in. Joseph Quinn shot to fame faster than you can say “Demogorgon” when he joined the cast of the popular Netflix series for its fourth season. The British actor played Eddie Munson, the lovable metalhead with a heart of gold. With his killer guitar skills and that iconic mop of curly hair, Quinn became an instant fan favorite. And clearly, Doja Cat was paying attention!
As it turns out, Doja has been crushing on Quinn for a hot minute. Back in 2022, when she was 26 and he was 29, she wasn’t shy about letting the world know she thought Quinn was, and I quote, “fine as sh—t.”
Doja even decided to shoot her shot—with a little help. She slid into the DMs of Noah Schnapp (the actor who plays Will Byers on Stranger Things) asking him to play Cupid. In a since-deleted TikTok shared by Schnapp, we can see Doja’s DM asking him to help set her up with his co-star. “Noah can u tell Joseph to [hit me up]. wait no. does he have a gf?”
When Schnapp suggested she message Quinn directly on social media, Doja Cat replied, “idk his ig or twitter. He doesn’t have a DM to slide in.” Schnapp came through for her, dropping Quinn’s Instagram link with a cheeky, “right here ma’am.”
Doja was, understandably, less than pleased about Schnapp exposing her crush for the whole world to see. In an Instagram Live, she called out the then-17-year-old’s decision to post “a private conversation between me and him,” calling the TikTok, “so unbelievably like socially unaware and whack. That’s like borderline snake sh—t. That’s like weasel sh—t,” per Rolling Stone.
Now, we don’t know if anything came from Schnapp awkward wingman effort back then, but fast forward to now, and we’ve got this cozy Dingwalls sighting. So, what’s the deal? Are Doja Cat and Joseph Quinn really an item, or is this just a case of two attractive celebs hanging out?
As of now, both Doja and Quinn are keeping quiet on the subject. No confirmations, no denials—so we’ll just have to wait and see!
