Early life and career beginnings

Demetria Devonne Lovato was born on August 20, 1992, in Albuquerque, New Mexico,[7] to former Dallas Cowboys cheerleader Dianna De La Garza (née Lee Smith)[8] and engineer and musician Patrick Martin Lovato.[9] Demi has an older full sister named Dallas;[10] a younger maternal half-sister, actress Madison De La Garza;[11] and an older paternal half-sister, Amber, whom they first spoke to when they were twenty years old.[12]

Lovato's parents divorced in mid-1994, shortly after their second birthday.[13] Their father was of Mexican descent, with mostly Spanish and Native American ancestors, and came from a family that had been living in New Mexico for generations; he also had distant Portuguese and Jewish ancestry.[14][15] Their mother is of English and Irish descent.[16][17] Patrick was a descendant of Civil War Union veteran Francisco Perea and Santa Fe de Nuevo México governor Francisco Xavier Chávez.[18] Lovato had no interest in forging a relationship with Patrick after their parents divorced.[19] They have been vocal about their abusive and strained relationship with him and once stated, "He was mean, but he wanted to be a good person. And he wanted to have his family, and when my mom married my stepdad, he still had this huge heart where he said, 'I'm so glad that [he's] taking care of you and doing the job that I wish I could do'."[20][21] After Patrick died of cancer on June 22, 2013,[22] Lovato said that he had been mentally ill, and in his honor they created the Lovato Treatment Scholarship Program.[23]

Influences

Lovato has frequently cited "power vocalists" such as Christina Aguilera, Kelly Clarkson, Whitney Houston, and Aretha Franklin as major musical and vocal influences.[232][233] Lovato says, "I had a lot of respect for Whitney Houston, and Christina Aguilera."[234] About their admiration for Clarkson, Lovato says, "I just thought she was a great role model. I feel like she set a really great example and she was extremely talented."[235] Lovato also said that they were "obsessed with Kelly Clarkson" as a child, and they even had an AOL username, "Little Kelly", inspired by the singer.[236]

Their other influences or inspirations include Britney Spears,[237] Rihanna, JoJo, Keri Hilson,[238] Jennifer Lopez,[239] Gladys Knight, Alexz Johnson,[240] Billie Holiday, the Spice Girls,[241] and Billy Gilman.[232] About Gilman they said, "We had the same voice range when I was young. I would practice to his songs all the time."[242] In their teens, Lovato listened to metal,[243] including bands such as the Devil Wears Prada, Job for a Cowboy, Maylene and the Sons of Disaster, and Bring Me the Horizon.[244] They have said that John Mayer's songwriting has in particular been a "huge influence" on theirs, and that following the release of Unbroken, their musical style shifted towards hip hop and R&B.[232] Upon the release of the song "Without a Fight" by country music singer Brad Paisley featuring Lovato, they cited the country genre as a lifelong strong musical influence of theirs, as they "grew up listening to country" and their mother "was a country singer".[245]

Lovato's The Neon Lights Tour was "inspired by Beyoncé" and specifically her 2013 self-titled visual album in regard to the visuals shown onscreen.[246] Moreover, Lovato revealed that their sixth studio album, Tell Me You Love Me, was inspired by Aguilera.[247] Lovato said "I grew up listening to Christina Aguilera. She was one of my idols growing up. She still is. Her voice is incredible, and in Stripped you really got to hear that. I think it was her breakout album that really transformed her into the icon that she is today. So that inspired me … she really inspired this album. I was even inspired by the black and white artwork!"[247]

Voice

Throughout their career, Lovato has received acclaim from critics for their singing abilities. Regarding their vocals on Don't Forget, Nick Levine of Digital Spy stated, "[they're] certainly a stronger singer than the Jonases. In fact, [Lovato's] full-bodied vocal performances are consistently impressive."[248] Becky Brain of Idolator remarked that Lovato has a "killer voice and the A-list material to put it to good use".[249] According to Sophie Schillaci of The Hollywood Reporter, Lovato "has a voice that can silence even the harshest of critics."[250] In his review of Lovato's sophomore studio album Here We Go Again, Jeff Miers from The Buffalo News stated, "Unlike so many of [their] Disney-fied peers, Lovato can really sing...[and it's] refreshing [they don't need Auto-Tune] to mask any lack of natural ability."[251]

Commenting on working with Lovato on their third studio album Unbroken, Ryan Tedder stated that Lovato "blew me out of the water vocally! I had no idea how good [their] voice is. [Lovato is] one of the best singers I've ever worked with. Literally, that good... I mean, [they're] a Kelly Clarkson-level vocalist. And Kelly has a set of pipes." He also commented on their work together on the song "Neon Lights" from their fourth studio album, saying "Lovato has one of the biggest ranges, possibly the highest full voice singer I've ever worked with."[252] Tamsyn Wilce from Alter the Press commented on their vocals on Demi, stating "it shows just how strong [Lovato's] vocal cords are and the variation of styles that [Lovato] can completely work to make [their] own."[253]

In a review of the Neon Lights Tour, Mike Wass from Idolator remarked "you don't need shiny distractions when you can belt out songs like [Lovato] and connect with the crowd on such an emotional level."[254] In a review of the Demi World Tour, Marielle Wakim from Los Angeles magazine praised Lovato's vocals, commenting, "For those who haven't bothered to follow Lovato's career, let's get something out of the way: [Lovato] can sing. At 22 years old, [their] vocal range is astounding." Wakim went on to further describe Lovato's vocals as "spectacular".[255]

Lovato was lauded for their performance of "The Star-Spangled Banner" at Super Bowl LIV in 2020. Patrick Ryan of USA Today commended them for delivering a "flawless performance" and described Lovato as "one of the best vocalists in the industry today".[256] He went on to note that Lovato "hit all the high notes with ease" and ultimately "even added some of [their] own riffs" which he says resulted in "a rendition that was uniquely and phenomenally" their own.[256]

Personal life

Residence

On August 20, 2010, their 18th birthday, Lovato purchased a Mediterranean-style house in Los Angeles for their family; however, Lovato decided to live in a "sober house" in Los Angeles after leaving rehab in January 2011.[257] In September 2016, Lovato also purchased a Laurel Canyon home in Los Angeles for $8.3 million, which they sold in June 2020 for $8.25 million.[258] In September 2020, Lovato purchased a Studio City home in Los Angeles for $7 million.[259]

Hobbies

Lovato started training in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, a martial art derived from jujutsu, in 2016.[260] They are ranked as a blue belt as of 2019.[261]

Sexuality, gender and relationships

For a few months, Lovato dated singer Trace Cyrus in 2009.[262] Lovato briefly dated their Camp Rock co-star Joe Jonas in 2010.[263] Lovato then had an on-again, off-again relationship with actor Wilmer Valderrama; they first began dating in August 2010 and ended their relationship in June 2016.[264] Lovato later dated UFC athlete Guilherme Bomba Vasconcelos from January to July 2017.[265] In late 2018, Lovato briefly dated designer Henry Levy until March 2019.[266] They dated model Austin Wilson for a few months until late 2019.[267] On July 23, 2020, Lovato announced their engagement to actor Max Ehrich.[268][269] They had begun dating four months earlier, but eventually called off the engagement that September.[270]

Lovato describes their sexuality as fluid, and has said they are open to finding love with someone of any gender.[271][272] In July 2020, they labeled themself queer in a social media statement mourning the death of their Glee co-star Naya Rivera.[273] In March 2021, Lovato came out as pansexual and sexually fluid,[274][275] stating in an interview, "I've always known I was hella queer, but I have fully embraced it." In the same interview, they called themself "just too queer" to date men at the time.[274] They expressed that they feel proud of belonging to what they called the "alphabet mafia", referring to the LGBT community.[274]

On May 19, 2021, Lovato publicly came out as nonbinary and announced the decision to change their gender pronouns to they/them, stating that "this has come after a lot of healing and self-reflective work. I'm still learning and coming into myself; I don't claim to be an expert or a spokesperson. Sharing this with you now opens another level of vulnerability for me."[276][277] They had previously come out as nonbinary to their family and friends towards the end of 2020.[278][279][280]

Health

Lovato had suffered from anorexia nervosa (binge type), self-harm, and being bullied before they went into rehab at age 18.[281][282] On November 1, 2010, Lovato withdrew from the Jonas Brothers: Live in Concert tour, entering a treatment facility for "physical and emotional issues".[283] It was reported[284] that they decided to enter treatment after punching backup dancer Alex Welch; their family and management team convinced them they needed help. Lovato said they took "100 percent, full responsibility" for the incident.[281] On January 28, 2011, they completed in-patient treatment at Timberline Knolls and returned home. Lovato acknowledged that they had bulimia, had cut themself, and had been "self-medicating" with drugs and alcohol "like a lot of teens do to numb their pain".[285] They added that they "basically had a nervous breakdown" and had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder during their treatment.[286] They later admitted to having used cocaine several times a day and smuggled cocaine onto airplanes.[287]

Lovato speaking at the 2016 Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia in July 2016

In April 2011, Lovato became a contributing editor for Seventeen magazine, penning an article that described their struggles.[288] In March 2012, MTV aired a documentary, Demi Lovato: Stay Strong, about their rehab and recovery.[289] They began work on their fourth studio album the following month.[290] In January 2013, it was reported that Lovato had been living in a sober-living facility in Los Angeles for over a year because they felt it was the best way to avoid returning to their addiction and eating disorder.[291] Lovato celebrated the five-year anniversary of their sobriety on March 15, 2017.[292]

In their 2017 YouTube documentary Demi Lovato: Simply Complicated, Lovato revealed that their treatment at Timberline Knolls had not been entirely successful, stating that they still struggled with alcoholism and a cocaine addiction in the year following their stint in the treatment center and further admitting that they were in fact under the influence of cocaine while being interviewed about their sobriety for Demi Lovato: Stay Strong.[293][294][295][296] They stated, "I wasn't working my program. I wasn't ready to get sober. I was sneaking it on planes, sneaking it in bathrooms, sneaking it throughout the night. Nobody knew."[294]

Lovato also stated that their drug and alcohol addiction caused them to not only nearly overdose several times, but later began to impact their ability to perform live and promote their Unbroken album, referencing a 2012 performance on American Idol where they were severely hungover.[293][295][296] After their management team had expressed their intentions to leave them, Lovato agreed to resume treatment and counseling for their addiction, leading to their move to a sober-living facility in Los Angeles with roommates and responsibilities to help them overcome their drug and alcohol problems.[293][296] In 2021, though stating they were done with hard drugs, such as heroin, Lovato revealed they were not completely sober as they drank and smoked marijuana in moderation, something many of their friends openly disagreed with. They decided on moderation as they felt they were setting themself up for failure if they told themself they were never going to drink or smoke again. They say this is because it was drilled into them that "one drink was equivalent to a crack pipe."[297]

In 2021, Lovato said they had initially accepted their bipolar diagnosis and shared this in 2011 because it explained their erratic behavior, but later came to believe it was inaccurate: "I was acting out when I was 18 for many reasons, but I know now from multiple different doctors that it was not because I was bipolar. I had to grow the fuck up."[298] Lovato also stated that the diagnosis has been revised to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).[299]

2018 drug overdose

On June 21, 2018, Lovato released the single "Sober" in which they revealed they had relapsed after six years of sobriety.[300] On July 24, 2018, they were rushed to the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles after emergency services were called to their home due to an opioid overdose.[301][302] Lovato said, "The doctors told me that I had five to 10 minutes, like, if no one had found me, then I wouldn't be here."[303] The singer was reported to be stable and recovering later in the day.[301] They reportedly overdosed on oxycodone laced with fentanyl[304] and was revived with naloxone.[305] Lovato also had multiple health complications relating to the overdose, including multiple strokes, a heart attack, and brain damage, the latter of which caused lasting vision problems.[306] They were hospitalized for two weeks and subsequently entered an in-patient rehab facility.[307]

Lovato's drug overdose received widespread media coverage, leading to them becoming the most googled person of 2018, ahead of Meghan Markle, Brett Kavanaugh, Logan Paul, and other figures who had received extensive coverage throughout the year, due largely to the public interest surrounding the overdose.[308] CBS News ranked the overdose the 29th biggest story of 2018.[309]

In December 2018, Lovato took to Twitter to refute rumors regarding their overdose and went on to thank their fans, writing, "If I feel like the world needs to know something, I will tell them MYSELF. All my fans need to know is I'm working hard on myself, I'm happy and clean and I'm SO grateful for their support."[310] They added that some day they would "tell the world what exactly happened, why it happened and what my life is like today.. but until I'm ready to share that with people please stop prying and making up shit that you know nothing about. I still need space and time to heal."[310]

Lovato spoke on the matter during a 2020 appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, where they elaborated on how their worsened struggles with bulimia in 2018 contributed to their eventual drug overdose as they relapsed three months prior to the incident due to being extremely unhappy.[311] The singer attributes these struggles to the extreme measures that their then-manager, Phil McIntyre, took to control the food they ingested.[312] Lovato further explained that, along with the controlling nature of their management team, they did not provide them with the help they needed: "People checking what my orders at Starbucks were on my bank statements... just little things like that... it led me to being really unhappy and my bulimia got really bad and I asked for help and I didn't receive the help that I needed."[312] Moreover, they recounted that their thought process the night they relapsed after six years of sobriety was as follows, "I'm six years sober and I'm miserable. I'm even more miserable than I was when I was drinking. Why am I sober?"[312] When Lovato confronted their management about these thoughts, the latter responded with, "You're being very selfish, this would ruin things for not just you but for us as well." This made Lovato feel "completely abandoned" due to triggering their underlying abandonment issues with their birth father, and so they "drank [...] that night".[312]

Rape trauma

In 2021, Lovato revealed that they were raped at age 15 when they were an actor on the Disney Channel, and that the rapist was a co-star whom they had to continue seeing thereafter. The incident contributed to their bulimia and self-harm. They told someone about the incident, but the attacker "never got in trouble for it. They never got taken out of the movie they were in." Lovato stated they did not recognize the act as rape at the time, since sexual activity was not normalized to them and they were part of the Disney crowd who wore purity rings and were waiting until marriage. However, they decided to share their experience because they believe that everyone should "speak their voice if they can and feel comfortable doing so". Lovato also stated they were raped during their 2018 drug overdose, realizing a month after the incident that they were not in a place to consent at that point.[313][314]

And showing women that you can embrace your sexuality and you deserve to have confidence and you don't need to conform to society's views on what women should be or how you should dress. So, I think it is just about supporting other women and empowering other women."[331] In May 2017, Lovato partnered with Fabletics to create a limited edition activewear collection[332] for the United Nations Foundation's Girl Up campaign to fund programs for "the world's most marginalized adolescent girls".[333][334]
