Demi Lovato Chats Struggles, Truth, & More With Paper Magazine
Demi Lovato is on the cover of the new issue of Paper magazine. The young singer is on the cover to promote her new documentary series, Demi Lovato: Dancing with the Devil. Highlights from her interview are below.
On revisiting her past year: “Going back over the past year, I thought my life was going to turn out a lot differently than it has. At one point I was engaged to a man, and now I’m very much not. And so I just wanted to allow myself the freedom to match my outside to what I feel like on the inside, and that’s what I’ve done.”
On blocking out the media: “I think it was right after I got out of rehab in 2018. I saw an article somewhere that said I was morbidly obese,. And that is the most triggering thing that you could possibly write about somebody with an eating disorder. That sucked, and I wanted to quit, I wanted to use, wanted to give up. And then I just realized that if I don’t look at those things then they can’t affect me. So, I stopped looking and I just really try not to look at anything negative.”
On the here and now: “I think less about the future and music and more about living my truth. If every decision I made was based off of my future. I’d just be future tripping the entire time. I wouldn’t be living in the present moment at all.”
