"Stranger Things" star Noah Schnapp said Doja Cat apologized to him after he publicly shared her DMs about his costar, Joseph Quinn, on TikTok.

While promoting the latest season of Netflix's "Stranger Things," the 17-year-old actor also addressed his online spat with Doja Cat, 26, that made headlines last week. In a now-deleted TikTok shared on July 6, Schnapp posted a screenshot of Doja Cat asking him to set her up with Quinn.

Schnapp told Variety's Adam B. Vary that he initially posted the screenshot because he didn't think it was a big deal.

"I'm super unserious on social media and pretty goofy, so I posted that not thinking too much of it, but obviously it hurt her feelings," Schnapp told the outlet. "So, as I should, I apologized and she was totally okay with it, and was like, "I'm sorry how I reacted. It was all good."

Schnapp continued that he considered Doja Cat a role model and was a big fan of her music.

"I'm like the biggest fan of her music, and I told her that. I was like, you're literally my role model. It's all good," Schnapp told Variety. "People make such a big deal out of everything when it's on the internet, but, like, in reality, it's like a two minute thing."

After Schnapp shared the screenshot online, Doja Cat called him out during an Instagram Live for posting their "private conversation." Although she acknowledged that Schnapp was young, she still felt upset by the screenshot.

"The fact that Noah did that, went and posted a private conversation between me and him, is so unbelievably socially unaware and wack. That's, like, borderline snake shit. That's, like, weasel shit," Doja Cat said.

The following day, Doja Cat appeared to address critics who blamed her for the disagreement in a Twitter post. Some fans suggested Doja Cat shouldn't have called Schnapp out because of his age, while others noted she already showed public interest in Quinn before the screenshot.

"y'all are so cringe and lame and nobody wants to hang w u that's why y'all be on here unironically writing replies to shit that makes you mad," Doja Cat wrote.

"Guys everything is all good I apologized and I still follow her and love her music no hard feelings," Schnapp wrote in the video's caption.
