Demi Lovato has been very open about her romantic relationships throughout her career in the entertainment industry. Now dating musician Jute$ for over one year, Lovato wasn’t always as secure romantically as she is today. She admits that many of her romantic relationships stemmed from personal issues she had yet to overcome and reveals her relationships with older men were “gross.”

Demi Lovato opens up about her past romantic relationships

The entertainer discussed her past in an interview with Howard Stern, which aired Sept. 11, 2023, on his Sirius Xm radio show. She admits that some past romantic entanglements with older men were “gross.”

Lovato admits “daddy issues” led her to date older men when she was younger. Today, she looks back at these romantic entanglements in a different manner than she once did.

During the Stern interview, Lovato said, “I think what I went through is that I had a...

German cinema is in Cannes with new works by Wim Wenders and films that explore Nazi propaganda, gender identity, economic crisis, romance, betrayal and fast cars.

In addition to domestic films, a dozen German co-productions are screening in this year’s Cannes Film Festival lineup, including major works from the likes of Wes Anderson, Aki Kaurismäki and Jessica Hausner.

Wenders is in Cannes with “Perfect Days,” which is vying for the Palme d’Or, and the documentary “Anselm” in Special Screenings.

“Perfect Days” tells the story of a Tokyo janitor (Kôji Yakusho) who seems very content with his simple life, structured routines and passion for music, books and photography. A series of unexpected encounters gradually reveal more of his past. The Japanese-German co-production is sold by the Match Factory.

“Anselm” explores the work of artist Anselm Kiefer, shedding light on his life, inspirations and creative process. Shot in 3D,...

Demi Lovato is no stranger to a revealing documentary. In 2012, she chronicled her recovery after her first stint in rehab with Staying Strong. Five years later, in the film Simply Complicated, she opened up about her bipolar-disorder diagnosis and admitted that she had been using cocaine while filming Staying Strong.

In the new four-part YouTube docuseries Demi Lovato: Dancing With the Devil, Lovato, her family, her friends, and her team chronicle a near-fatal 2018 overdose that had the singer and actress reaching a breaking point in her addiction and mental health...

When it comes to documenting her life, Demi Lovato’s been holding nothing back. In 2017, she debuted her first documentary series, Demi Lovato: Simply Complicated, which told the story of her life and career up to that point. But then, 2018 happened. Lovato nearly died from a drug overdose, and she’s been on a journey […]

The post Making Her New Documentary, Demi Lovato Found New Focus appeared first on Hollywood Outbreak.

Lili Reinhart has opened up about her struggles with anxiety and mental health, and in a recent interview with Variety, she got particularly candid. In addition to speaking out about depression and body dysmorphia, the Riverdale star revealed that she looked up to Demi Lovato growing up - the way that many young fans likely look up to Lili now.

"I definitely looked up to Demi Lovato," Lili said. "I remember her as being the first person [I heard] talk about depression and growing up with an eating disorder. I personally have not had an eating disorder, but her openness and honesty about her mental health was really cool to me. I was like, 'Oh, that's how I feel!' She's famous and beautiful and has money, and it's strange to think that she could still feel that way too."

She continued to say, "It was just an awareness that [depression] can affect anyone of any gender,...

Pop singer and actress Demi Lovato has updated fans on her condition via Instagram, saying she will keep fighting the addiction demons that saw her hospitalized a little over a week ago.

“I have always been transparent about my journey with addiction. What I’ve learned is that this illness is not something that disappears or fades with time. It is something I must continue to overcome and have not done yet,” Lovato said.

“I want to thank God for keeping me alive and well. To my fans, I am forever grateful for all of your love and support throughout this past week and beyond. Your positive thoughts and prayers have helped me navigate through this difficult time.”

Lovato said she would use the downtime to recover. She was in the middle of a tour and planned to do some international work in the fall, all of which is now on hold.

After reaching a stable condition following a drug overdose last month, Demi Lovato says that she needs “time to focus on my sobriety and the road to recovery.”

Lovato wrote in an Instgram post that she has learned her addiction “is not something that disappears or fades with time.”

“It is something I must continue to overcome and have not done yet,” she wrote.

She thanked the staff at Cedars-Sinai: “Without them I wouldn’t be here writing this letter to all of you.” She also thanked her fans for their support and wrote that she looks forward to “the day where I can say I came out on the other side.”

Though Lovato’s post didn’t confirm that she had entered rehab, sources told TMZ that those closest to her are urging her to seek professional help. That extends to people who work for Lovato as well...

Time was never quite on Demi Lovato and Wilmer Valderrama's side. It was January 2010 when the songstress and the That '70s Show star crossed paths for the first time to shoot a public service announcement about that year's census forms. If you asked Lovato, the material was the last thing on her mind. "To be honest, I only did it because I heard it was at his house and I thought he was really cute," she candidly admitted in her documentary, Simply Complicated. Not only was he cute, but the actor made something she didn't think was possible happen—love at first sight. "I don't really believe in that, but I believe that it...

Pop superstar Demi Lovato reportedly overdosed in her home on July 24, before being given a lifesaving dose of Narcan and getting rushed to the hospital. Sadly, one of her icons wasn't so lucky. The 7-year anniversary of Amy Winehouse's alcohol poisoning death was on July 23, just one day before Demi's hospitalization. It's a tragic coincidence, but perhaps unsurprising considering how similar their stories are. Demi, 25, was very inspired by Amy — who died at 27 — and it's easy to see why. They both have incredible vocal talent, and some of the most soulful voices of modern pop music. But it was more than just her music that drew Demi to Amy. “I've got Amy Winehouse... that I looked up to and wanted to be so badly. I wanted to be as thin as her, I wanted to sing like her, I wanted to be just like her," said Demi in her documentary Simply Complicated.

A second documentary about pop star Demi Lovato is in development at YouTube, originals boss Susanne Daniels told reporters on Friday.

Daniels said during an executive session at the Television Critics Association press tour that the streamer is currently “working on” a follow-up to last year’s “Simply Complicated.”

The previously unannounced film was expected to premiere in the fourth quarter of 2018, but Daniels said it would likely be delayed following Lovato’s hospitalization and apparent drug overdose earlier this week.

“I hope she’s feeling better,” Daniels said. “Demi Lovato is my hero. She’s been honest and so candid about her struggles … We want her to get well, and then she’ll decide what she wants to say or not say about this.”

Asked whether or not the new project would include Lovato’s recent relapse,...

Demi Lovato’s concert in Atlantic City, set to take place Thursday at Atlantic City Beach, has been canceled, Variety has confirmed. Lauv was due to open the show.

“Demi’s Atlantic City appearance on July 26th has been canceled in light of today’s news,” said Live Nation late on July 24. “Tickets will be valid to attend the Lauv performance on July 26th along with The Chainsmokers show on July 29th as part of the Atlantic City BeachFest Concert Series.

Said the network in a statement: “In light of recent reports, we have decided to replace the episode...

After six years of sobriety, Demi Lovato has seemingly relapsed, according to the lyrics of her new single, "Sober." The heartbreaking announcement comes as the 25-year-old sings the hook of the track, "Momma I'm so sorry I'm not sober anymore / And Daddy please forgive me for the drinks spilled on the floor / To the ones who never left me, we've been down this road before / I'm so sorry, I'm not sober." The former Disney Channel actress opened up about her battle with drugs and alcohol as well as an eating disorder in her 2017 documentary, Simply Complicated. However, she promised fans in the short film that she had recovered — for good. Unfortunately, it looks like she hit a bump in the road. With the release of this new single, it sounds like Demi is trying to let the world know what has really been going on behind the scenes. And she...

Sorry, she's not sorry. Demi Lovato recently opened up about the funniest prank she ever pulled — but the story completely backfired on the singer. According to Demi, she hired a sex worker to "surprise" her bodyguard while they were in Las Vegas, but her followers didn't find the "joke" so funny. "I hired a lady of the night in Vegas and sent her to Max's hotel room to surprise him," she wrote in a since-deleted tweet. "She walked into his room without his permission and grabbed him hin his 'area' and he freaked the f--k out hahahahaha." Soon, fans were calling out Demi for the insensitive prank, with many believing it was a form of sexual abuse. However, the former Disney Channel star defended herself, writing, "I swear I could tweet something about craving jelly beans and it would offend someone." For all of those coming at me rn, listen...

It's been six years since Demi Lovato got sober — she was addicted to cocaine, Adderall, and alcohol — and with each year that passes, the "Tell Me You Love Me" singer uses the opportunity to talk to fans about overcoming her addiction. She posted an empowering message on Instagram and wrote, "Today is a very special day for me... I'm officially celebrating 6 years of sobriety!! I'm so thankful to my family, friends, and @castcenters for being a part of this journey. A huge part of my recovery was learning to love myself and to give back to others."

Demi Lovato has what appears to be an unbreakable bond with former bf Wilmer Valderrama, because they were hanging together over the weekend. We got this pic of Demi and Wilmer chowing down for a late lunch Saturday in the San Fernando Valley at Sol Y Luna. As you know ... the 2 dated for 6 years but broke up in June, 2016.   It's interesting ... Demi released a documentary last October called "Simply Complicated," which talked about the breakup...

Demi Lovato is working hard at loving herself, no matter what the haters have to say.

The 25-year-old “Confident” singer has been determined to break free from the need to be perfect recently, opening up on Instagram about her mission to practice self-love in 2018.

That mission, it turns out, comes with a slew of swimsuit pictures — which comedian Ellen DeGeneres couldn’t help but point out during Lovato’s visit to her show Monday.

“I’ve been working on myself for the past year, more so than I’ve ever worked on myself,” Lovato explained on her Ellen DeGeneres Show appearance.

Following the success of an ad-supported Demi Lovato documentary on YouTube titled Simply Complicated -- which has clocked 12 million views to date and contributed to the success of her latest album, she says -- the video giant is currently in discussions with Lovato about a follow-up project.

That revelation, as well as reports that YouTube is giving other artists like rapper G-Eazy hundreds of thousands of dollars to produce original programming to promote upcoming records and tours, comes care of a new Bloomberg report about YouTube’s global music head Lyor Cohen. The rapper G-Eazy’s four-episode Overtime series debuted last month, chronicling the release week of his new record The Beautiful & Damned. (In November, YouTube also produced a documentary about Puerto Rican music sensation Ozuna, and the company notably broadcast a four-day live stream starring Katy Perry in June).

Demi Lovato had nothing but love for birthday girl Madison De La Garza on Monday night.

The 25-year-old “Confident” singer celebrated her sister’s sweet 16 with a series of loving (and silly) social media snaps.

“Look at how gorgeous you look! So gorgeous!” Lovato gushed as she stood by Madison’s side before the two attended Madison’s party.

Birthday girl Madison was beaming in a sleeveless silk white romper with plunging neckline and removable sheer skirt. The Desperate Housewives alum accessorized her look with a sparkly tiara and matching belt.

Lovato, meanwhile, showed off some skin in a lacy...

Damn. it was a good year for music.

It didn’t always feel that way, though. While Kendrick Lamar’s aforementioned fourth studio album -- which hit like a meteor on the Friday before the rapper’s monster set to close out Coachella -- much of 2017 was defined by growers rather than out of the gate jams and much of the summer passed without a bona fide “Song of” said season. (Barely. More on that in a second.)

Really, it's only on looking back at the cavalcade of "Best Of" lists that footnote every year that you realize how full of noteworthy sounds 2017 in particular was. And now, with the nearly ubiquitous acceptance of streaming as the primary method of song consumption, not only is the roster of artists who find both large audiences and critical acclaim more diverse and democratized than ever, but the entire idea of a publication-determined "Best Music of the Year" feels almost silly. After...

Michael and Demitri Lerios eat, sleep and rock.

Brother duo Fox Wilde is a little bit pop, a little bit electronic and a little bit country when it comes to writing and producing music for icons like Demi Lovato and James Maslow, but when they hit the studio for themselves, they’re all rock n’ roll.

Here are five things you need to know about the Los Angeles-based band:

1. Beats have been boiling in their blood since birth.

The Lerios brothers were born with an ear for music and hands that became stuck on an instrument at all times. Growing...

Lovato is currently in London for the EMAs — which...

Demi Lovato knows a thing or two about dating. After all, she’s had a few high-profile relationships in the past.

From being romantically linked to Joe Jonas and Wilmer Valderrama, the singer — who recently revealed she’s open to dating men and women — advised fans on all things love during an interview with Arianna Huffington for Thrive Global Podcast with iHeartRadio.

“I think that when you find something that’s very special to you, don’t deny yourself of the opportunity,” she said about recommending long-term relationships for young people who are at “an age when most people are just dating around.
