Demi Lovato Is Taking A Break from Social Media!

First Twitter and now Instagram.

Demi Lovato announced earlier on Instagram that she will be taking a break from Social Media.  Demi writes, “Taking a break for a while.  Be kind”

Sources reveal Demi’s break stems from Taylor Swift and the aftermath of her latest drama with Scooter Braun, who is also Demi’s new manager.  Scooter recently made a $300 million deal and purchased Big Machine Records, which is Taylor’s previous record company.  In addition, Scooter is now the owner of Taylor’s music catalogue.  Taylor then accused Scooter of bullying her over the years and it sparked major online drama.  Celebs like Halsey, Cara Delevingne and Brendon Urie (to name a few) showed their support for Taylor while Justin Bieber and Demi Lovato defended Scooter.

Over the weekend, Demi posted two Insta-stories, one saying, “I have dealt with bad people in this industry and Scooter is not one of them. He’s a good man.  Personally, I’m grateful he came into my life when he did. Please stop ‘dragging’ people or bullying them. There’s enough hate in this world as it is.”  And her second post read, “Y’all can come after me all you want but I’m always gonna stay loyal to my team.  I value loyalty more than most people in this world and if my name is gonna be brought into conversations I’m gonna stand up for myself and the ones on my team.”

It didn’t stop there – Demi then somewhat got into it with Todrick Hall, a friend to Taylor and a former client of Scooter’s.  According to Todrick’s Instagram post, he writes, “For those asking, I left Scooter Braun a long time ago … I am saddened by this news, but not shocked.  He is an evil person who’s only concern is his wealth and feeing his disgusting ego.  I believe he is homophobic and I know from his own mouth that he is not a Swift fan.”

In a response, Demi wrote back, “Hey boo, idk you or anything and this isn’t hate, but making claims that someone is homophobic is really serious.  Please don’t spread information that isn’t true because I can guarantee you, Scooter isn’t.  As a member of the LBGTQ+ community myself, he wouldn’t have signed me if he was.  No hate just trying to clear that up.”

Todrick came back at Demi with the following responses:

Dear Demi, first off…why did you delete your tweet? Secondly, I love you and listen to your music religiously, but thirdly, you cannot compare your experience to mine, especially with someone I was with for six years and you've only just signed with.

PSA, Just because you have a black friend doesn't mean you can't still be racist. And just because you're not picketing against gay marriage doesn't mean you're not homophobic. I said what I said and I believe what I believe.

Being black and gay in this industry is hard as hell, and was even harder when I signed with that man and unless someone has walked in my shoes…I don't care to compare their experiences to mine. Period!

Ok NOW I’m going to sleep, and I realized that Demi commented on insta & doesn’t have Twitter. Also, this is very unfortunate because I LOVE Demi & her music! Been a fan for years. Not trying to start a fight with her because she has nothing to do with it!

Hopefully Demi doesn’t stay away for too long from social media!
