[edit] Controversy
Doda often refers to herself as the "Queen" while treating other people with disrespect even on live TV. She is also famous for claming her high IQ (168) but the way she acts doesn't support that fact. Recently, Doda spat on cabaret actors from the KMN group for using her name in a sketch.
