Doja Cat is putting her French lessons to use, as the Grammy-winning artist revealed the release date for her upcoming Vie album.
Doja posted a trailer for the project on social media on Thursday (Aug. 14), which found her leaning into cosplaying a mademoiselle while speaking French (Vie translates to Live in English).

“Je sais que tu es ma vie Vie out 9/26,” she captioned the cinematic clip, positioning her album for a Sept. 26 arrival.
The video finds Doja in various sophisticated outfits as she changes from Black lace to white fur and a sparkling diamond ballroom gown. One shot even finds Doja in couture in front of the Eiffel Tower during a recent trip to Paris.
“You’re here?” she says while the camera pans to another version of herself. “Of course I am,” Doja replies while taking a bite of her croissant.
Fans were excited to hear a firm release date for the long-awaited album, which is Doja’s first since 2023’s Scarlet. “AHH WE ARE SATTTTT,” one person wrote. While another added: “Yesss Ms. Doja Jones!!!”
Earlier this month, Doja Cat teased her upcoming “Jealous Type” single, which will set the table for the album. The teaser came with a phone number for a Vie hotline, while callers were greeted by Doja playing the role of romance therapist. “Jealous Type” is slated to be released on Aug. 21 at 8 p.m. ET.
Doja Cat hasn’t released any singles this year and has been tight-lipped about the project, but revealed in her V Magazine cover story in July that it’s a “pop-driven” effort.
“I do want to be self-aware enough to admit the fact that this is a pop-driven project,” she said at the time. “I know that I can make pop music, and pop is just that it’s popular. It starts to become a bit of a thing that’s viewed as a sport by people who are just bystanders to it, who enjoy it, but maybe also don’t respect it or what it is, which is just music … They see it as if this is some kind of football for girls and gays.”
Watch the trailer below and look for Vie on Sept. 26.
