Demi Lovato Admits Media Scrutiny Fueled Her Weight Struggles: 'I Wish I Wasn't So Watched!'

She’s happier and healthier than ever — and not at all ashamed about her 30 pound weight gain after beating her eating disorder!

Demi Lovato‘s new album Unbroken is one of the biggest commercial hits of the year, but now she’s revealing that all of her time in the spotlight was the root of her tragic eating disorder!

Demi, 19, said her fame was a trigger for issues which sent her into treatment, the Los Angeles Times reports.

“Sometimes, I still think to this day, ‘I wish I wasn’t so watched,’” she said. “I just felt that being on camera for my first job wasn’t the smartest decision. On TV, you have wardrobe fittings, you have four cameras on you at all times, and you’re worried about your angles and your lighting and your shots.”

What do you think HollywoodLifers — does Demi look happier and healthier than ever?

omg shes getting on my nerves. I get she had something very difficult to deal with and i feel bad but damn shut up already! actresses are WATCHED, if she didnt want to be watched she shouldnt have been an actress its that damn simple. If thats what “fueled” her struggle with weight before she should lay low for a while because she keeps admitting she gained weight and she obviously did and all these negative comments from people could cause her to relapse. STOP TALKING ABOUT IT DEMI!!! she keeps saying its not bothering her but the way she keeps goin on and on about it proves its hitting a nerve. its like every time people move on from the story she reveals more and more about her struggle its really getting on my nerves.

Maybe it would be better if you posted the whole interview. That wasn’t the context she meant! :/
