Stars speak out in shock, sadness and support as news spreads about the “Sober” singer being rushed to the hospital.
Demi Lovato has no shortage of famous fans wishing her well in wake of her hospitalization for a heroin overdose on Tuesday.
Ariana Grande, Ellen DeGeneres, Missy Elliott, Bella Thorne and Brad Paisley were among the first celebrities to share their shock, sadness and support for the pop star as the news spread.
Law enforcement sources told TMZ that Demi was transported from her home located in the Hollywood Hills just before noon and is currently being treated. As of now, her condition is unknown.
According to TMZ, paramedics found Demi unconscious when they arrived. They then treated her with Narcan — an emergency treatment for narcotic overdoses. Demi was reportedly out Monday night celebrating a friend’s birthday in West Hollywood, where she seemed happy and in good spirits.
Last month, the 25-year-old singer released a song called “Sober,” in which she revealed she had fallen off the wagon after being six years clean from alcohol and cocaine.
Demi has been extremely forthcoming about her battles with substance abuse and bipolar disorder, opening up about both in her 2017 YouTube documentary, “Simply Complicated.”
“You have to lean into the people who are trying to support you,” she said in the film. “You really have to surrender because that’s when the change is going to happen.”
The pop star was living in a sober-living home while she was a judge on “The X Factor” from 2012 to 2013.
Back in March, Demi spoke with Billboard about her disastrous time at the 2016 Met Gala and said someone at fashion’s biggest night drove her straight to attending an AA meeting.

addiction isn’t one of those things you can put yourself in the shoes of. you had to have fought the fight yourself or had it rip your family apart your entire life… even then, the latter is still not the same thing. this isn’t the time for the picking apart or making light of.
— Kehlani (@Kehlani) July 24, 2018
I’m praying for you with everything in me @ddlovato. You are so loved.

praying for @ddlovato and her health. When I was 14, she was an idol to me in how she spoke so openly about mental health. And now she continues to inspire thousands of young men and women with her body positivity messages. Addiction and mental illness doesn’t discriminate. ?
