Demi Lovato Quitting Twitter Instagram Trolls

Skip navigation!

Update: Demi Lovato's social media hiatus lasted about as long as anybody's social media hiatus lasts: Less than 24 hours. The singer announced her return in a series of tweets that promised that she was back and about to be more honest than ever. Her main reason for return was, of course, her Lovatics. It definitely wasn't the crippling addiction we all share to being constantly connected and validated by our online friends. Definitely not that.

Fuck this.. I'm back bitches. And I'm coming back more honest than ever

You might have one less celebrity to follow on social media. Last night Demi Lovato announced that she was quitting both Twitter and Instagram. Then she kept tweeting. It's unclear what kicked off the social media standoff, but we have our suspicions. Two hours before making her threat to quit the pop star posted this image promoting her beauty line on Instagram. The post was hit with nasty comments, many of them slamming Lovato for her recent comments criticizing Mariah Carey.

One day, my mom came home from the spa and I saw how her skin was glowing and how visibly relaxed she was... That image stuck with me and inspired me to develop @devonnebydemi I hope you all have been enjoying my products as much I do! And if you haven’t tried it yet, now’s the time! Link in bio.

And people wonder what's wrong with the world. Pay more attention to good than bad. ??

The singer has yet to close her social media accounts, and the Lovatics are begging her to stay. Perhaps that will be enough to help her forget the trolls and regain her "Confident" spirit.
