Demi Lovato ‘Felt Like She Let Her Fans Down’ After Relapsing

As Demi Lovato performed her new single “Sober” for the first time at Lisbon, Portugal’s Rock in Rio Festival June 24, she sang through tears. The song, released without warning three days earlier, is an emotional confession: After celebrating six years of sobriety in March, she had relapsed.

Demi Lovato's Struggle With Addiction in Her Own Words

Lovato, 25, had been open about her struggles with drugs and alcohol in the past. In the October 2017 documentary Simply Complicated, she chronicled everything, from the first time she tried cocaine at age 17 to the time she punched a backup dancer who exposed her Adderall use during the Camp Rock 2 tour to her eventual sobriety.

Celebrities Who Have Been to Rehab

After she relapsed, “Demi felt terrible about herself and was really depressed,” a source explains in the new issue of Us Weekly. Her new song helped her regain equilibrium.

“She honestly felt like she let her fans down and that she owed them the truth,” says another insider, adding that the singer is “back on track.”

Indeed, she’s focused on staying clean, says the first source. “She’s going to meetings again, going to the gym and taking care of herself.”

Disney Stars Through the Years

After the performance, Lovato wrote on Twitter, “Tonight I took the stage, a new person with a new life. Thank you to everyone who has supported me throughout this journey. It will never be forgotten.” One day later, she shared an image of a new tattoo on Instagram. The ink, on the side of her pinky finger, reads, “free.”

Red Carpet Date! Sophia Bush and Grant Hughes Attend WHCA Dinner

Finding The One! Sophia Bush has kept her romance with Grant Hughes relatively private since the pair were first spotted together in Malibu in May 2020. However, the FocusMotion Health founder has shared a few photos of the couple. Ever since landing the role of Brooke Davis on One Tree Hill in 2003, Bush’s personal life has made headlines. That is something that the actress and activist has intentionally changed, she explained in June 2021. “It’s hard to have nothing that’s yours. And when you are a person who lives in the public eye, everybody wants to pick over everything and that can be really tricky,” the False Positive actress told Entertainment Tonight at the time. “I also grew up in the early aughts when girls were raked over the coals for any choices that they made. And I just was like, ‘I don’t think I like this.’ I didn’t like having my private life lied about. There were times where someone would send through an article and be like, ‘Well, supposedly you’re dating t...
