- After a difficult year, Demi Lovato battled her demons, got the help she needed and is back on top. She gave a powerful and candid interview to Ellen about her eating disorder and her road to recovery. She's an incredible person.

Kind of hard to believe she's 19 years-old here. She looks really mature.
SHE'S 19?????!!!!
She is really mature!
fr she be looking 25
I remember watching these interviews and being like “wow she’s amazing. She’s come so far”, but even in this interview she was still using. I’m so happy that she’s now 5 years sober and that she’s taking care of her eating disorder. ❤️
yeah, I know ... now we KNOW she was so lying here but luckily she did get the help and made a change.
She isn’t taking care of it I mean she just relapsed
Beautiful Flow3r that doesn’t mean she isn’t trying which is taking care of it
Beautiful Flow3r that's so insensitive.... I can't even
Shes not now lol
I'm a 16 year old boy, and I shed tears over this. I love Demi and the person she is and am glad she stood up and talked about these issues. She is a beautiful person inside and out and I love it.
Same here
You guys in the comments are horrible. You think you're cool because a 16 year old boy can have these issues and say that he cried watching this? Like you've never cried. Freaking egotistical assholes. Grow a brain and fuck off.

Really? Guys have feelings too, they are humans and they are allowed to cry. You are no one to judge him. This is a serious topic & the fact that he felt something over this is incredible. Plus he said it on the internet, that my friend makes him have balls that you don't have.
Nancy Ayala well said c:
SuperGameRocket loser
It's crazy to think that even here she was not sober :(
I see IT in her eyes When she is off
I don't understand, this supose to be after her first overdose, i thought she was clean at that time
@@arielbrocani7388 She hadn't an OD at that time, she had a breakdown. This interview aired on September, 2011 and she actually got sober on March, 2012.
Yeah, so sad to think now!😐💔
How do we really know she is sober now?
Anyone watching this after watching simply complicated and thinking wow she was still struggling with drugs badly too :(
Laine Burton yes 😔
When you watch stay strong then simply complicated it makes sense.
She's so inspirational, I love her to death. She is really a good person and it's nice to see someone in the industry making such a positive impact on young girls, especially compared to other ex-Disney stars. Props to you, Demi, you're amazing.
So proud of what she's overcome and definitely proud to be a Lovatic 💕💖👊
hell yeah!
Lovatic 4ever! Demi's my role model and I am so proud! She deserves being surrounded by fans and people who look up to her! She is just a young girl, but she does know the meaning of life!
shes my hero, role model & inspiration
Demi is my world💙💙💙💙
Hannah Borland YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Lol
Same ^^^^^^
Someone give her a Grammy, please
Richard Meister because she was bullied?
MileyRay Hansen no because she played off being well that it was so hard to believe she was suffering the whole time
Dinah Ray Hansen Because She is a great singer.
I think you mean an OSCAR lol
To see her hesitation and pain about the topic back then compared to her documentary today. She still struggles but she's so much stronger and I appreciate it so much
wow hearing her you would never know she was still using and abusing coke and alcohol.
My name is Leilani too 😃
So the American idol performance happened about a year after this interview. She was still struggling with substance abuse at this time. Damn she knew how to hold her shit together when it was time to. I think performers have a good knack for that but damn
Glad she's really better now though.
Ashley Brabson 6 months, actually. She started to get sober in March 2012.
When other people ask me why I love her.. I just answer simply because she taught me how to be a warrior.
Beautiful Demi, well said.
Demi has changed my life in so many ways. I'm so thankful for everything she is doing. She is and always will be my role model.
shelby ward me too. Been a Lovatic since camp rock and loved her since Barney! I must of watched every demi video but this one I’ve only just found it aha 💕
Omg this was when she was doing drugs
Cannot believe stars like Demi and Kesha had to go through this, it's so cruel that people fat sham them both beautiful young women, they're inspirations to young girls everywhere
She's been through so much & still managed to come on top! Most perfect role model ever😍💕
Dmgirls except she was on drugs at the time of this interview
How can anyone bully Demi Lovato? She's so pretty
That's how, bullying is basically based on jealousy
Mya A. . I see what you mean but that doesn't make it ok. Screw those people that bullied Demi, am I right? xD
She got bullied cause she was called fat and ugly cus of her eating disorder, and now shes stronger than shes ever been :D
What does pretty have to do with getting bullied? You can get bullied for any kind off shitty reasons no matter how pretty you are. It's not like pretty people are immune and "ugly" people aren't. The source for bullying does not come from the one getting bullied, it comes from the one(s) doing the bullying.
TheGlittra True, but I think it's ridiculous how bullies think they can get away with injustice such as picking on someone's looks, race, jealousy or whatever. She had her issues, but you can't help but admire her for fighting her way through it. This is why I like Demi because she's humble and she's one of the few Disney Channel stars that didn't go off the deep end after leaving. At least to my knowledge. xD
She helped me so much. My mom wants me to be like those girls on the magazine, but I don't and Demi really inspires me.
I hate people that say she's fat! She's not. She's healthy, not like the artists and model that don't eat! #lovaticandproudtobe
Yes, because thin artists and models don't eat. Because anyone who's thin is anorexic. Right? Wrong.
She's so strong. It's unreal
I couldnt even contain myself like that. im impressed.
Exactly incredible human being 👏
...and hot as fuck
I think it's stupid that people bullied Demi for no reason she is beautiful and there is no reason to bully her or any one else
Ryan Nicole its not a thing about beauty . There is no reason to be mean to another human being.
People get bullied all kinds of reason no matter if you're pretty sexy ugly or anybody just flat can't stand you people getting bullied anyways I used to get bullied all time in high school I didn't care I let it go I didn't cut myself I didn't stop eating nothing I I'm not going to let anybody make me want to cut myself or stop eating or commit suicide nothing if you don't like me I simply just don't give a f***
Demi is so perfect. Having gone through this myself, she inspired me to get help a few weeks after she went public with treatment. Demi saved my life and I'm forever in debt to her. I will always support her.
First time I saw this video I nearly cried cause I know what it feels like to be bullied because I experienced that but luckily I moved schools before I could do self harm or anything. Live u demi and keep on being strong sweetie because I know u r strong and no one can get u down again. Love ellen
I'm a Lovatic because of that. Exactly what she said, and when she said it I burst out crying. She was the one who influenced me to stop skipping supper when I was thirteen and it's just scary how accurate what she said was. I don't even listen to pop music, I love metalcore and deathcore, but I'm proud to call myself a Lovatic
and we all thought she had already passed through everything! she still was using drugs in this times! very sad
I'm so proud of her she is such a role model and she is living proof that things like this can be beaten she is still living and is still here fighting and showing you can get through it x
This a bold, brave interview.
I went to a Jonas Brothers concert in July 2008 with my sister and my mom who was super pregnant at the time(best mom ever). Avril Lavigne was an opening act, and Demi performed some songs too. I was probably one of the best nights I ever had as a middle school kid. I was bullied a lot throughout elementary and middle school, and listening to my Demi Lovato CD's helped me get back up on my feet. I sing a song of her's every year at a church camp I go to for a talent show that we do at the end of the week. It's a small way to show my appreciation for her inspiring me. DEMI YOURE SO PRETTY AND AMAZING AND I LOVE YOU LIKE A SISTER! :D
Im literally crying, I have been bullied all my life and have suffered with not knowing what to do. I Just I hated myself and feeling I was worth less, and I was not good enough for anyone.... I am now 16, and still have this going on no one sticking up for me or caring about me!! I use to do things that I should of never done, and it breaks my heart when I hear such a pretty girl like Demi, had to go through horrible things like this!! It's crazy that a lot of us that go through bullying, find a way to cope with it by doing bad things, and feel like you should just give up, even though you never should!!! I am lucky that I found so many supportive people in my life like you Demi and now that I am able to just ignore it even though it hurts me at times!! I love you guys so much thanks for this inspiring video!! I love you Demi and Ellen
Her way of presence of any topic is so awesome. 😊 I really love her! 😍😍
bring her back to the show!!!
she was in the show 3 days ago. ☺
Demi is the perfect definition of role model. Proud lovatic and how far she's come.
It is really inspiring and admirable that someone like her can talk about her issues and be a role model for a lot of people that have been gone through the same things, we all get to that point sometimes and when someone like her speaks up and faces these kind of things is amazing. Really proud of her.
I love Demi. She is my hero!
Brave Warrior Mixer Lovatic she's my hero too
I just wanna hold her tight and tell her that she saved me..
Wow, you're such a strong person, Demi! You inspire me and you and your music give me strength!
Demi has inspired me so much. I went through the same things she did and she's been a great help for me in my own recovery.
demi is my idol i cant believe anyone ever did this she is the most amazing person in the world.i look up to her so much
She's my idol and inspiration. I saw her in concert with my best friend last year, so amazing.
i hate being like "i miss this Demi" or whatever and that's not what i'm saying but i just do feel like she was exceptionally healthy and good here.. she seems so calm and great and i love that hair on her and yes... i care about her so much
An haircut does not change a person.Demi is still amazing
Sweet Soprano good to know that's what you got from my comment
whateverfudge What was I supposed to get
Sweet Soprano i mean you can get whatever you want i just meant in my comment that in this particular time in her life she seemed... fresh and healthy in my opinion. and all you focused on was the fact that i said i liked her hair like this
whateverfudge Well she wasn't because she was not comfortable in her skin.Now she is confident and happier than ever
The best interview I have ever seen :') my queen is beautiful inside and out
So many celebrities r going through rough times and im glad we have a role model who will speak about her struggles and use them to inspire others every single day shes perfect inside and out
i love this girl so much. struggling with some of those problems and she helps me. thank you demi.
My God she's come so far. Good for her.
Demi Lovato is such an inspiration to me not only because she is talented in what she does, but because of her back story as well. I am 15 and I have gone through the same things as her and just listening to her music and even watching this interview shows me that life is worth living and that there is good in everyone no matter what anyone says. Everyone is perfect in their own way and no one should be picked on for what people may consider their "flaws". I think everyone should love each other because we all are so amazing and I would love to thank Demi for what all she does because she is truly my role model & if I were to ever meet her one day I'd probably bawl my eyes out. I love her!! She is the absolute best.
Wow this is soo deep I love Demi She such a real person...sooo brave to be so open..I knkw this episode was years ago..unfortunately she has relapsed but she is still young..she is under extreme pressure I hope she recovers..
She was the one inspired me to face my fears and go into treatment and tell my family what was going on. Demi your my idol ❤
She's my idol . She been through so much and came out of it stronger. Love you #lovatic
Demi she is really amazing she is people idol no words can't describe what i think about like your talk its really help
Shes AMAZING
I just love her so much, words cannot comprehend how much respect I have for her as a person. She's just amazing and inspiring, she has given me the confidence to feel better about myself.
Honestly Demi lovato is so fucking strong and beautiful and no one could say otherwise !
Forever love you Demi. The world needed someone like you.
#ForeveraLovatic
i don't know how, but everytime i watch one of these videos about demi i start my homework or just schoolwork right after.. i think it's because she have put so much work into coming where she is today and being happy so i realize that i need to get higher grades to study music and hopefully be a musician one day. demi inspires me in so many more ways than just this, and she's helped me through a lot. demi is my #1 rolemodel of all times. thank you so incredibly much.
we need more role models like this she was in a very dark place and she dug herself back out and is back on top she is a huge inspiration proud to be a lovatic
so she was actually using here? gosh it's fucking shocking but you can see it now
i love her so much 😭💕
I mean this so much - I'm crying so hard watchin this, demi is so inspirational and to know that I've got no chance of meeting her honestly breaks my heart, I love you so much demi and I know you might hear this a lot but I mean it, I really do mean it.
Demi, I know how u feel. I have depression and i did think about cutting and ending my life but i sought help and now i feel amazing! I've been bullied and criticized all my life but i have always had my family to help me through which i am very grateful for. Love you all so much! xx
Who would bully demi???? she is PERFECT
Omg I love her I've been here from the start and never leaving
This is so emotional to watch after the overdose and the new documentary about it coming out.
i just love demi for this. i've been through bullying and cutting. i was in such a dark place. i stopped eating and i was really thin, not exactly anorexia, but very thin. my mother was drinking very much and my mom and dad was always fighting (not physically). now, i changed school, have good friends, i'm too thin anymore and i've stopped cutting. mom has stopped drinking and mom and dad is divorced. everything is so much better now. she's my role model. she's so strong. thanks demi!
Whats fucked up is most television channels wont let girls over weight be on there i looked up to skinny magazined girls i got sick so demi inspired me soo much
Demi is the most beautiful person in the whole world and I know that she is perfect just the way she is. #proudlovatic
This made me cry. Demi is so strong and to be able to get better and speak about it to help others is so brave. She's an amazing role model, stay strong Demi ❤
Shes such an inspiration to her fans, it feels as if were all as one and can relate with each other, shes my role model and lots of others out there shes simply amazing.
im going through all these interviews, wondering if she even cared. but I love her!
Xiomara Jimenez demi has always cared she just never fully relized what she was doing
she is really a beautiful person
I am proud of her ❤️❤️ and how she stayed strong 💗💗 #supportherlovatics
This video made me cry. I'm one of those people that would say Demi's saved me. And Ellen's always made me happy when I was having a rough time. Without these two I don't know what my situation would be like.
I love Demi's outfits. She has really good tastes...
And I think that she's so brave to talk about her problems. Love her!
Thank you Demi. You are perfect, and amazing!!!
6 years later and still can't stop watching this video
I'm very proud of you, Demi! I've gone through similar things, but to see that you got through it, you give me hope! :D
She is beautiful person I love you
4:01, it hits me. A 13 yr old girl. You're such an amazing person Demi! I love you for that.
She is beautiful and such an inspiration. God bless her, I'm so glad she was able to get help and be at the place she is now.
so proud of her she has gone way to far glad to have her in my life
Proud to be a lovatic love you Demi xxxxxxxxxxxxx 💕💕💕💕💕
came after watching simply complicated
She's come so far since this day. I'm sobbing.
I think its so great of her to speak up and let everyone know what she's been through :) So brave :)
She is so inspirational
She is not my fave singer but whoever bullied her is gonna receive a nice fist in the face from me.

Using violence against violence isn't the way to go lol. Whether you were joking or not, you shouldn't make threats to people even if they can't see the comment. Don't mean to lecture or anything :P And in general, I know ppl say rude or mean comments is inevitable on youtube, but people can and should lessen it. Don't follow the crowd in promoting this form of violence and threats.
You're deff my inspiration, I am following my dreams to and was also bullied. Love your stories so much
Wow, she has gone so far in last 3 years! But this was the time, when I probably loved her the most! I am so proud how strong and brave she was. And I miss those beautiful hair.
Im officially a lovatic now!
Am I the only one crying?😭😭
no ur not 😭😭
She's so beautiful, she's definitely an amazing role model. I love her and admire her strength and the idol she strives to be.
no words..she is just simply amazing! a true inspiration..
Demi Lovato is so inspiring!!!
She's such a beautiful person, inside and out. I have so much respect for her. Such a role model
Im so proud of her! She's a great rolemodel in many ways :)
she was in pain so much :c #aftersimplycomplicated
omg..she changed a lot
How . Tf.?
her look duh
her look doesn't matter i still love her what matter is she don't change her personality and ruin her life .
i'm so happy for her, no-one deserves happiness and self-content more than her!
wow, that was a really inspiring talk. way to go, girl!
Demi is my hero!!!:)
