The short answer
Talk to Me Doja is a TikTok dance meme from November 2026. Creators pair a sped-up clip of Doja Cat's "Like That" with a scene from the anime Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches, where the character Urara Shiraishi sways with her hands under her chin. They copy that sway on camera and add the caption "talk to me Doja."
The phrase reads like a reply to Doja Cat herself. The tone is cute and bashful, not mocking: the sway is a flustered, flirty "who, me?"
What a Talk to Me Doja video looks like
| Moment | What happens |
|---|---|
| Opening | The creator stands or walks around casually, looking unbothered. |
| The switch | The beat of the sped-up "Like That" hits and anime screenshots of Urara pop up as stickers. |
| The sway | Both hands cup the cheeks or sit under the chin. The body sways side to side with a huge shy smile. |
| Caption | "talk to me Doja" (or the earlier "speak to me doja") on screen. |
Most clips run 13 to 19 seconds and are filmed vertically on a phone. The anime stickers are the visual signature: without them, many viewers do not get the reference.

Not to be confused with
- The older "talk to me" TikTok trend, which uses Playboi Carti's "Punk Monk" and grew out of the "don't talk to me" format.
- "Doja" by Central Cee (2022). Several AI tools have "Doja" templates built on that song; it is a different trend.
- Doja Cat's own "Like That" dance challenge from 2020, which Charli D'Amelio popularized. Same song, different moves.
- "Talk to me Doja" is the caption, not a song title. The sound is Doja Cat's "Like That", not a track called "Talk to Me".
How to join without filming
Filming it yourself needs a good angle, a few takes and an editor to add the anime stickers. Talk to Me Doja AI does the whole clip from one photo: it follows the original TikTok's timing, keeps the stickers, and adds the original sound to your download.
