Demi Lovato shut down a writer who said it’s ‘bullsh*t’ she doesn’t discuss her sexuality

Demi Lovato received a firestorm of media attention earlier this month when she was photographed holding hands with a woman, DJ-producer Lauren Abedini, in Disneyland. The outing sparked questions and gross speculation about the pop star’s sexuality, which she has never explicitly talked about. (She’s discussed sexuality in general, but not in the context of her personal life.) Honestly, Lovato’s sexuality is none of our business; she has every right to be as vocal or quiet about it as she pleases.

This is what Lovato told  Pride Source last week when she was asked why she keeps her sexuality private despite being an outspoken queer advocate. “I feel like [my sexuality] is irrelevant to what my music is all about,” she said. “I stand up for the things that I believe in and the things that I’m passionate about, but I like to keep my personal life as private as possible when it comes to dating and sexuality and all that stuff just because it has nothing to do with my music.”

Just because I’m refuse to label myself for the sake of a headline doesn’t mean I’m not going to stand up for what I believe in.

If you’re that curious about my sexuality, watch my documentary. But I don’t owe anybody anything.

She’s absolutely right, by the way. Warped media culture gives people the idea they’re somehow entitled to details about celebrities’ lives, but they’re not. At the end of the day, stars are humans, just like you and me, and they have a right to privacy. Indeed, people need to “chill out.”
