Demi Lovato

To be honest, I kind of forgot that Demi Lovato was a thing until a few months ago when I heard that she sang one of her songs to help a ghost heal from trauma related to sexism that this ghost experienced before dying. (Before you get up in arms, she has updated her Instagram profile to indicate that she’s comfortable using she/her pronouns again, along with they/them). So I was already not that inclined to think well of her.

But now I have a whole new slew of reasons to think she’s a bit off her rocker. Apparently, she got in a feud with a frozen yogurt shop because the fact that you have to walk past sugar-free options is fat-shaming? This seems very silly to me because there are a lot of reasons someone might cut sugar out of their diet, and weight loss is only one of them. But what can you expect from someone who is convinced that her own pop song is going to be the thing that heals a ghost of its trauma?
