How It Effects Me

Demi Lovato covers the Holiday issue of GLAM Belleza Latina magazine. Highlights from her interview can be found below.

On how her music affects her fans: “It’s really humbling. Their devotion helps me be the role model that I want to be. I don’t think I’ll ever completely understand it, but I’m very grateful”.

On how social media has a negative effect on her: “Social media started impacting my life when I was about 14 years old. I would check it obsessively, reading comments and wondering if people noticed that I’d gained or lost weight. I allowed social media to define what I thought of my body. And now I realize that no matter how thin you are, someone will call you fat. No matter how beautiful you are, someone will call you ugly. But you can’t spend your time worrying about that. You’re just not going to please the world.”

On how she keeps her energy up while on tour: “The more active I am, the better I feel and the longer I can stay onstage without losing my breath. I’ve experienced a big spiritual shift this summer, where I did a lot of work on myself. It’s time I really take my health seriously.”
