Demi Lovato Shows Appreciation To Her Fans In A Video Message

Demi Lovato says she’s ready to go back to work on her popular Disney Show, “Sonny With a Chance” and she is so thankful to her fans for lifting her up during what she calls “probably the darkest time in my life.”

The 18-year-old Disney star entered a treatment facility last November to deal with “emotional and physical issues.” Not too long ago she had to drop out of a tour with the Jonas Brothers and it was revealed that she had fought with a backup dancer.

In a video released on Cambio.com on Monday, Lovato told fans she’s back home.

Lovato says she was dealing with issues that teen girls face but didn’t say what they were. In the past, she has acknowledged cutting herself.

Lovato told fans they brought light in her life during her darkest hours and without them “I probably wouldn’t be here today.”

In the video, Lovato said she was ready to resume working. However, a statement released by Disney on Monday said Lovato’s management would let them know when she is ready to return. While “Sonny” was on hiatus, Disney put the rest of the cast and crew to work on “So Random,” the sketch comedy show within the “Sonny” series. Those episodes will begin airing in the spring, Disney said.

Demi Lovato checks into a treament center and quits tour

Demi Lovato, one of Disney’s biggest names, checked herself into a treatment center to deal with “emotional and physical issues,” her representatives said in a statement Monday night.

The statement did not specify the 18-year-old’s problems, but said Lovato checked herself into a facility to address the concerns.

A person familiar with the situation previously told The Associated Press that Lovato entered treatment for problems including an eating disorder and cutting herself. The person, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly due to the sensitivity of the matter, later clarified the statement, saying Lovato had dealt with those issues in the past.

Lovato, who is star of Disney’s “Camp Rock” movies and the sitcom “Sonny With a Chance,” was on an international tour as a special guest of the Jonas Brothers, but left the tour over the weekend to enter an undisclosed facility, according to the statement.

“Demi has decided to take personal responsibility for her actions and seek help,” the statement said. “She is doing just that. Demi and her family ask that the media respect her privacy during this difficult time.”

In a 2009 interview with The Associated Press, Lovato, who has also released several records, said she had to leave middle school at one point because she was bullied so badly.

“It was more verbal harassment than physical abuse, but that’s actually more scarring than anything,” she said. “And I had to leave because I just couldn’t deal with it. And I’ve home-schooled ever since.”

Lovato was linked earlier this year to Joe Jonas, her “Camp Rock” co-star, but the two later broke up and said they remained friends.
Her rep said Lovato regretted not finishing the tour but “is looking forward to getting back to work in the near future.”

New Artist Spotlight: Lauren Cupp

Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam Soundtrack To Be Released August 10th

No. 1 selling recording artist Demi Lovato and the multi-platinum-selling artists, the Jonas Brothers are featured on the soundtrack of the summer–Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam–set to rock into stores and online retailers on Tuesday, August 10th. The album features 15-all new songs from the movie, including three bonus songs (“Different Summers,” “Walkin’ In My Shoes” and “It’s Not Too Late”). The physical CD also features exciting special bonuses, including the full-length “It’s On” music video, exclusive interviews with Demi Lovato and Jonas Brothers, and a movie photo gallery accessible through computer ROM drives. “Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam,” premieres Friday, September 3rd on Disney Channel.

“Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam” is a full out rock ‘n roll musical that celebrates music, dance and the freedom of summer and reminds viewers to ‘enjoy the journey.’ This summer of fun opens on a high-pitched Camp Rock reunion. All the Camp Rockers have returned, eager to tune up and rock out but a glistening new camp across the lake, Camp Star, poaches Camp Rock’s counselors and may put Camp Rock out of business. Mitchie Torres (played by Demi Lovato) steps it up as she challenges the egocentric Camp Star to an end-of-summer performance duel–it’s on!

Nick Jonas commented, “In the first movie, music was part of it. This one–music tells the story.” Demi Lovato added, “In this movie there are several different kinds of music — and music is what drives ‘Camp Rock 2′.”
