Demi Lovato

I know that I have a voice and can use it for good or bad. It's a gift from God.

I don't have many deal breakers. I've done so much in my life, it doesn't feel right to judge other people.

I want to be fearless.

Now on Friday nights, if I want to go hang out with friends, I go hang out with friends. If I want to stay in and be in the hot tub and have people over to watch movies, I do that.

I was compulsively overeating when I was eight years old.

I never found out until I went into treatment that I was bipolar.

I feel like I'm held more accountable to stay healthy now because now I'm a role model to young girls to not have eating issues and to not say, 'Hey, it's OK to starve yourself' or 'It's OK to throw up after your meals' - that's not OK.

My sisters and my mom, those people help me get through every single day.

Being a celebrity can be dangerous. Nobody says 'no.'

Sometimes I think, 'Why couldn't I have been normal?'

I think I've definitely had my rock bottom and I think that was probably right before I went into treatment where I said, 'I definitely need help.'

Some of my fans have said that because I've been able to speak about my issues, that they're not afraid to speak about theirs, which is an amazing feeling.

If I'm able to use my voice to do good in the world then I definitely want to do that.

I don't think there's going to be a day when I don't think about food or my body, but I'm living with it, and I wish I could tell young girls to find their safe place and stay with it.

My stepdad provided me with an amazing childhood. I played outside like a normal kid, I rode my bike, I walked to school, but the happiest times were when I was acting.

I think that women who know who they are are beautiful.

I never thought that I'd be a role model. Everyone kind of just made me a role model, and I hated that.

I believe in aliens. I think it would be way too selfish of us as mankind to believe we are the only lifeforms in the universe.

I pray every night before I go to sleep and every morning when I wake up.

After so long being thin, it was terrifying being heavier. But I am a naturally curvy Hispanic girl. I don't deprive myself.

I love having a boyfriend but need to be secure on my own first.

I want my music to do the explaining.

Everyone has the bully or the mean girl or the ex-boyfriend who tried to bring them down.

I'm honest about the journey I've been on, so I definitely don't take dating lightly anymore.

Music is what I love to do; it's in my veins.
