Demi Lovato is an American singer and actor who began her career on ‘Barney’ from 2002 until 2004. She eventually became a massive Disney Channel star after scoring a role in ‘Camp Rock,’ which premiered in 2008, and ‘Camp Rock 2,’ in 2010. Demi also had her own Disney Channel series, ‘Sonny With A Chance,’ from 2009 until 2011. She released her debut album in 2008, and has released seven records in total. Demi has been open about her struggles with anorexia, bulimia and drug use over the years. She entered a treatment center in 2010, and was eventually diagnosed with bipolar disorder, as well. Demi relapsed in 2018, and nearly died of a drug overdose. In 2021, she came out as non-binary, and confirmed she would be using ‘they/them’ pronouns instead of ‘she/her.’ However, in the summer of 2022, she revealed she would be using ‘she/her’ once again.

In addition to her career and personal struggles, Demi has also been known for some of her high-profile relationships with stars like Joe Jonas and Wilmer Valderrama. Through it all, Demi has grown up right in the public eye. Keep scrolling through the gallery to see her transformation.
