Na het onthullende interview van Justin Bieber, weet Complex magazine nu ook de onderste steen boven te krijgen bij Demi Lovato. De zangeres doet een opmerkelijk boekje open over haar leven, beroemde vrienden en, jawel, haar hook-up met Ruby Rose.
Ze begint met haar getroebleerde verleden, waarin ze verschillende eetstoornissen had en verslaafd was:
'If you were to sit my friends and me in a group together, and we all shared our life stories, you wouldn't understand how we're still alive because of either our addictions or the stuff that we've survived. I never want to be like, 'Oh, I've been through so much,' like it's a sob story. I'm proud of what I've been through and gotten over.'
Verder wordt gevraagd of ze nog met voormalige BFF Selena Gomez praat. Niet dus. En op de vraag of dat door Justin Bieber komt... eh, wellicht een beetje, maar nu niet meer:
'Not really. Not anymore. He's actually a nice guy. I don't really know him that well, but he seems to have grown up. He looks like he's maturing. But, you know, when you're young and you get older, you change and people change. You have things in common, and then all of a sudden, you don't. It's just a part of life.'
Voor iedereen wiens jeugddroom nu in duigen is gevallen - Selena en Demi zijn al van jongs af aan vrienden omdat ze samen bij Disney zaten -, het lijkt erop dat de twee elkaar toch weer gevonden hebben na dit interview, want twee weken geleden verscheen deze foto op Instagram:
Eind goed, al goed? We zullen het zien. Verder zet Demi ook het een en ander recht over de geruchten dat ze een fling zou hebben gehad met Ruby Rose in een lang betoog:
'I don't feel like any of my past or future - when it comes to relationships that may have happened or not have happene - are of any concern to anybody. What matters to me is my relationship with Wilmer. We are in an amazing place. Rumors are rumors, and people are going to spread them. You can believe what you want, but no, I was not in a relationship with her. By the way, love is fluid. Whether there's been rumors with one specific person or not, that's all that matters. Humans are humans, and when you connect with somebody on a spiritual level it doesn't matter. I don't want people to ever look at the past or rumors or anything and try to figure me out. There's a lot of relationships that I've had where nobody has even guessed it. Not everybody knows everything about me. The only thing that matters to me is that people know who I am today. With Wilmer, I'm the happiest that I've ever been, so that's all that matters to me.'
Amen! Als laatste springt Demi nog even op de bres voor de Kardashians, want hoeveel kritiek ze ook krijgen, ze hebben er maar mooi wel even voor gezorgd dat curves in zijn (hear hear!):
'When the Kardashians came into the spotlight, they kind of revolutionized what beauty was when it came to body shapes. For so long, it was the heroin-chic '90s supermodel thing, and I feel like, when the Kardashians came into the picture, people started to look at it because it was different. They were like, "You know what? That's actually really beautiful." From then, I noticed that Beyoncé was thicker, and Nicki Minaj is thicker. When I say thick - like when I call my thighs thick - I love it. I think it's a good thing. Watching them really helped me learn to accept my body image, too. I'm not naturally super thin. I have an athletic body. I just have to embrace that. There are days when it's hard to, but more and more, there are days where I'm actually proud of my body.'
