黛米洛瓦托, 倾城的 二月封面明星,多年来一直在塑造态度和独立。她是糖衣流行歌星的对立面,她的头发是黑色的头发和纹身星座。虽然她不是第一个反抗迪士尼根源的明星,但她是第一个坦率地谈论她的恶魔的人之一。
在2009年,照片浮出水面,露出Lovato的手腕上有伤口,一年后,她寻求治疗贪食症。 2010年,在与乔纳斯兄弟一起巡回演出期间,洛瓦托成为了在前往秘鲁期间打击后备舞者的头条新闻。不久之后,她自己进入了一个康复设施。最终,她决定挺身而出,解决问题。 “我意识到我可以帮助别人,”她说。当一位年轻的明星分享这个毫无根据的真相时,她补充道,“它创造了一个对话 – 孩子们自己实际上出现并说’这就是我正在处理的事’。或者’我有问题。我需要帮助。’“
在那之后的几年里,Lovato将她的挣扎融入她的音乐和她的信息中,谈论她与厌食症和贪食症,自残和吸毒的斗争。 (2013年,在被诊断患有双相情感障碍两年后,她写了一篇文章 纽约时报 畅销书, 保持强劲:一年365天 [Faiwel 朋友们。)一路走来,她的直言不讳得到了支持和批评。 “我会有人这样,’不要再谈论饮食失调了。就像,我们得到它。你挣扎着。现在闭嘴,’”她说,并不担心。 “我确信他们已经厌倦了阅读它,因为我厌倦了谈论它,但今年夏天我开始穿着性感的东西,我有点讨厌那样的,’你已经改变了。’”她讽刺的是微笑。 “就像是,有足够的信心穿这件衣服有什么不对?”
这是一个与各个年龄段的粉丝,尤其是年轻女性的共鸣,这些年轻女性越来越多地崇拜大胆,毫无歉意,坚强的女孩女主角。而Lovato最新的风格演变与她的音乐本身一样多。 “我从未像现在这样对自己的皮肤充满信心,”洛瓦托说。 “一年前,在巡回演出中,我的身体几乎每一寸都被衣服所覆盖,这是因为我躲在这么多层之后。一旦我开始对自己感觉更好,我感觉更好看到更多的皮肤。我有不安全感关于我的手臂,所以在舞台上穿上背心对我来说是非常自由的,有时也会感到不舒服。这也是一个声明,比如说,’嘿,小心。你不再得到你不安全的Demi了过去几年。我的意思是现在的生意。’“
也许这是她的迪士尼训练,但有时候,Lovato听起来有点像她自己的ABC Afterschool Special的明星。她对自己的角色模型职责充满了警觉,并且不缺乏分享的学习课程,特别是在保持健康,身体和心灵方面。她是自我护理的重要支持者 – 因此足部按摩。在路上,她经常锻炼,并依靠营养师送她的饭菜。 “我的食物选择不再统治我的生活,”她说。

Demi Lovato, the stunning cover star of February, has been shaping attitude and independence for years. She is the opposite of a sugar-coated pop star, with black hair and tattooed constellations. Although she is not the first star to rebel against the Disney roots, she is one of the first to openly talk about her demons.

Once I started feeling better about myself, I felt better about showing more skin.
