Doja Cat nearly misses collecting first Grammy award as she takes 'risky' toilet break

Doja Cat narrowly missed collecting her first ever Grammy award tonight due to an ill-timed toilet break.

The rapper and her collaborator SZA won the Grammy tonight for Best Pop Duo Performance, but Doja ended up nearly missing her own acceptance speech as she sped off to the bathroom at the wrong time.

SZA is currently on crutches, and even if she was able to make it onto the stage before Doja, 26, appeared and she wasn't afraid of referencing her own bathroom blunder as she rushed up to the stage.

"I've never taken such a fast p**s in my whole life," she told the audience to much laughter.

Thanking the fans and those who voted for her, she quickly adjusted her semi-sheer gown to avoid flashing anyone, as she added: "I really appreciate it. Thank you to everyone, my family, my team. I wouldn't be here without you and I wouldn't be here without my fans. SZA, you are everything to me. You are incredible, you are the epitome of talent. You're a lyricist, you're everything."

SZA was clearly moved by Doja's kind words, as she thanked the star for all her support.

She also thanked God and her mother for believing her, as she turned back to the rapper and said: "I'm glad you made it back in time!"

After a few moments, the Need To Know rapper got emotional and started tearing up, trying to gather herself and continue with her speech. She concluded: "Damn. Thank you, everybody. Be safe. Take care."

The stars' fans rushed to social media to congratulate the pair on their award.

"Anyways congrats to @dojacat and @sza for winning best group/duo you guys deserved it #GRAMMYs," one wrote, as a second added: "I’m so happy for Doja tho #GRAMMYs well deserved."

A third penned: "I’m so proud of Doja Cat and SZA. SZA should’ve been had a Grammy ever since 2017 for Best New Artist like HELLO! Been rooting for them #GRAMMYs."

"Doja going to the bathroom because she didn't think she'd win a #GRAMMYs is peak on brand. I'm so proud of her," a fourth quipped in reference to Doja's timing for her bathroom break.
