It has been a bit of a roller-coaster few days for Demi Lovato who has been faced with the full wrath of Taylor Swift fans the world over. 

While Taylor has managed to stay mum on the whole situation, Demi has been anything but quiet. 

It all began when Demi ousted Taylor for not speaking out about Kesha's ongoing court battle considering she describes herself as a feminist. 

And it seemed that Taylor got the message loud and clear as she donated around 225 thousand euro to Kesha's legal fund the day after the comment was made. 

However, Demi was of course was still not at all impressed by the gesture.  

Having received ongoing grief from Taylor fans, she was so angered that she even defended herself in the comments section of a Taylor fan on Instagram. 

"Not everyone has 250k to just give to people. At least I speak up about sh*t that’s uncomfortable to talk about rather than trying to be politically correct 24/7.

"There’s no ’rivalry’ I just give more f*cks than other people and would rather start a dialogue ABOUT WOMEN COMING FORWARD ABOUT BEING RAPED than throw money at one person."

 

As most people know, I tend to get fired up about the things I believe in, and although my heart and intentions are always in the right place, unfortunately sometimes my passion gets the best of me and causes me to say things that I probably shouldn't say. And when doing so it takes away from the real reason I am speaking up in the first place. Our focus should be on the topic of victims of sexual and physical abuse being afraid to come forward with their stories. They're more likely to face retaliation and harassment than to see justice being served. Especially women. It baffles me that when it comes to serious issues like equality and abuse, too often women are not taken as seriously as men. All I want to see is women coming together and actually making a difference. A real change and shift in society. Everyone has their own way of giving support to others , and at the end of the day, helping victims is all that matters. Ultimately, the message I want people to hear is it's okay to come forward with your abuse and if you do decide to take action, you are not alone.

"I didn’t shade Taylor. If you take it that way than fine. I’m just tired of seeing women use ‘women empowerment’ and ‘feminism’ to further brands without actually being the ones that have the uncomfortable conversations.

"I get shade and I don’t give a fuck because someone has to be the one to take it. At least I’m getting my hands dirty."

Demi took to Instagram again last night to post an image of visualised rape statistics as she tried to make the conversation about rape victims rather than a Taylor/ Demi feud.

Female celebrities have been taking to social media in their droves to offer support to singer Kesha, who is currently locked in a legal battle with her record company, Sony – and in tuyrn her former producer Dr. Luke.

One star in particular – Taylor Swift – took her support one step further and quietly donated a whopping €225,000 towards her court fees.

While Kesha's own mother was quick to thank T-Swift for her large donation, not everyone was quite so happy with the singer's decision.

Demi Lovato took to Twitter minutes after the news broke, hitting back at Taylor's decision to donate rather than publicly speak out about Kesha's claims that Dr Luke abused his professional relationship her drugging and raping her shortly after her 18th birthday. 

"'Take something to Capitol Hill or actually speak out about something and then I'll be impressed," she wrote.

In a series of now-deleted tweets, Demi went on to defend herself against the (unsurprising) wrath of Taylor's fans, one of whom accused her of making the drama about herself.

"How the f**k am I making this about myself? At least I'm talking about it," she replied.

"Not everyone has 250k to just give to people. Would love to but I didn't grow up with money and def haven't made as much as her. At least I speak up about s*** that's uncomfortable to talk about rather than trying to be politically correct 24/7.

"There's no "rivalry" I just give more f**ks than other people and would rather start a dialogue ABOUT WOMEN COMING FORWARD ABOUT BEING RAPED than throw money at one person."

Ouch. As yet there's no word from Taylor on this, but we reckon she'll be taking the high road and staying silent.

We all know that Demi Lovato can sing, but did you know that she can pull off some pretty stellar celebrity impersonations. 

On the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Demi flexed her celebrity singers' impersonation skills and let's just say that even the host couldn't deal with how good she was. 

Taking on Christina Aguilera, Cher and even Fetty Wap, the 23-year-old completely bowled the audience over with her improvisational skills. 

But Demi has not been the only singer to take on the Musical Impressions Generator on the show. 

Ariana Grande also took on an array of challenging singers including Britney Spears, Celine Dion and Christina Aguilera, just like Demi. 

We'll let you guys decide who you think did it better…

To coincide with all the excitement of the Grammys, Jimmy Kimmel decided to release the latest edition of Mean Tweets including all of our favourite musical stars. 

From Megan Trainor to the Killers, literally no one was spared from the wrath of angry Twitter trolls in the latest instalment. 

Yep, Jimmy's infamous television segment is always a hit as top celebrities are encouraged to sit down and read out the horrible things people say about them across the internet. 

And as you an guess, no one holds back. 

While Rita Ora is told that she dresses like a "big of d*cks" and Drake is told he looks like a "ferret with a baby afro" , we reckon this might actually be the meanest bunch of tweets yet. 

Watch the hilarious video below:

Whether you lover her or hate her, you can't deny that Kim Kardashian has killer curves. And little did we know what one pop star thanks Kimmy for her confidence.

Demi Lovato appeared on the Ellen show today, and admitted that Kim had a really important influence on her growing up. 

Ms Lovato has never shied away from talking about her eating disorder, but says when they Kardashians started to become popular, it created a new image for her to look up to. 

"When I was growing up, at the kind of age where your body starts changing and you want to be cool, it was in that era of when very, very, very thin people were the popular people in Hollywood, so that’s what I had to look up to," she said.

As we all know, Demi Lovato and long-time BFF Nick Jonas are preparing to go on tour together, and while we can't wait to see them perform their kinda-sorta Camp Rock reunion, it seems that not every Lovato fan is happy about it.

One fan took to Instagram last night to share their views with the singer, and Demi… Well, Demi completely shut them down.

We think this fan didn't remember that Nick and Demi are besties, and you can criticise someone's career, but never go near their best friend.

Demi Lovato has confessed that she was once told by producers to alter her appearance before she went on to make it big on the Disney Channel. 

The 23-year-old star told Allure Magazine this week that she was told to fix the gap in her front teeth when she was just fifteen before being being cast in the smash movie Camp Rock alongside the Jonas Brothers. 

"I signed with Disney Channel when I got Camp Rock, and I had a gap between my two front teeth. 

"They were like, 'Would you be willing to fix it?' I wish today that I hadn't, because my gap was really cute."

Demi went on to have problems with bulimia and self harming before going to rehab in her early twenties. 

"I realised I could help people. It creates a conversation — there's an opening for children themselves to actually come forward and say, 'This is what I'm dealing with.' Or 'I have a problem. I need help.' "

Despite going public with her issues, it has not been plain sailing for the Confident singer. 

"I'll have people who are like, 'Stop talking about eating disorders. Like, we get it. You struggled. Now shut up.' "

"I [also] started wearing sexier stuff, and I got some hate for that — like, 'You've changed.' "

But Demi has certainly come to terms with her own body image as she posted a gorgeous full body selfie from the set of her Allure shoot. 

"Posting a #nophotoshop pic because I'm proud to show my body the way it naturally is…" read the caption. 

We think Demi has never looked healthier or happier.

In one way we WISH we were Demi Lovato, travelling around the world with probably some of the hottest men on the planet.

But, one Instagram caption struck us as a bit odd over the weekend. 

In the picture we can see her boyfriend, Wilmer Valderrama, her friend, Nick Jonas and her EX-boyfriend, Joe Jonas. 

And the caption of the photo? "I love my boys." We bet Wilmer doesn't feel so special now, Demi!

The former Disney channel actress was on holiday in St Barts with Wilmer, Joe and Nick. The Jonas brothers and Demi have been very close since their Camp Rock days in 2008, and Nick is even touring with Demi next year. 

We just hope the That 70s Show alum doesn't get too jealous about Demi's relationship with her ex – because we love Wilmer and Demi together!

Well, their love for each other certainly isn't going to dwindle any time soon.

Demi Lovato and Wilmer Valderrama were spotted yesterday in the middle of a super steamy kissing session in the ocean. 

The couple are currently in St. Barts, a celeb hotspot, and they look to be having the time of their lives, even attempting that Dirty Dancing lift. 

During their visit to the pricey Caribbean island, they were joined by Gigi Hadid, , Nick Jonas and Demi's ex Joe Jonas. 

The group posted several snaps on Instagram… and we have to say, we wish we were there.

Celebs are getting rather clumsy these days. First, Jennifer Lawrence can't stop falling at award shows, and now Demi Lovato is following is her (unbalanced) footsteps. 

While performing at the Jingle Bell Ball in New York City last weekend, Demi had a little mishap. 

While closing her set with Cool for the Summer, the singer tripped over her mic stand and landed smack on the floor. 

But true to form, Demi got straight back up again and started fist-pumping the air. She then proceeded to tweet about the unfortunate blunder: 

When it comes to Ms Lovato, one thing is for sure: nothing will keep that girl down. Literally.

Former Disney star Tiffany Thornton is struggling to come to terms with the death of her late husband, Chris Carney.

Chris passed away when the car he was travelling in swayed off U.S. Highway 70 East and crashed into a tree in Hot Springs, Arkansas, according to local station KTHV.

 

My life. My love. My angel.

The 35-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene, along with his friend, Ezekiel Blanton, who was driving at the time. 

Tiffany's heartfelt tribute to her husband on Instagram was followed with a picture of the pair on their wedding day. 

 

There are so many things I want you to know about Chris but most importantly you must know how earnestly he pursued the Lord, especially in the past year. No one is perfect in this world and we all have our battles but it's the way we get back on our feet and turn it around that really counts. And he did it. He was so on fire for God and I know he flew straight into the arms of Jesus, his best friend. Please if you're reading this know that Chris would want you to know the Lord. Don't wait to run back to God. Our days are numbered and God is just waiting for you to come back to him. There is so much power in the redemption God gives us and I am so grateful that Chris and I got to fall in love all over again this past year. He was on such an amazing path for the Kingdom, having just gone on a mission trip to Peru with his dad where he shared his beautiful testimony and brought so many people to the Lord. He finished writing, directing, producing and editing his first Christian film and he and I got to star in it together as love interests who end up getting married. He was THE BEST father my children could ever have, an incredibly loving and sensitive husband, a wonderful brother and amazing son. He is already so dearly missed but I promise to spend the rest of my life sharing his testimony so that those who feel they have no place or have come from a place of struggle can learn that the love of the Lord can save us all. We will have a service in remembrance of him Monday, December 7th at 3pm and First Church of the Nazarene here in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Visitation will begin at 1:30pm. Thank you for your continued prayers for our family as we grieve the loss of my best friend Chris, the most incredible person I've ever had the blessing of knowing.

Tiffany's co-star and long-time BFF, Demi Lovato also shared an emotional message on social media.

The 23-year-old, who was Tiffany's bridesmaid, wrote: "Been trying to figure out what to say all day… This morning I woke up to terrible news. My good friend Chris Carney has passed away. 

"This picture is a perfect example of the love he shared with Tiff and how much fun he was to be around. I've been to many weddings but this is by far the most memorable because the way they looked into each other's eyes and the love they had for one another. 

"There were tons of laughs and tons of tears and I'll never forget the way he looked at her."

Adele's return to the music scene has inspired many others to try their hand at her love song, Hello. It's no easy feat and only a few so far have stood out. 

But arguably the most impressive one yet is Demi Lovato's. She performed the hit song during her set at KISS FM's Fall Ball in Seattle and proved to the world that her voice is just as good as Adele's. 

With Demi's tour starting in June, we're hoping she sings more show-stoppers like this:
