MINZY 210405-Black Shirt

 And for the first time in her life, she takes weekends off. 

"I work really hard during the week, and it's just important to me that I have a few days off," says Lovato, who's been working professionally since she was a preteen. "That was never an option for me growing up. It's empowering to be like, 'Hey, my values have changed. I'm putting my wellness in front of my work, and we can come back to this on another day.'" 

In early 2020, Lovato had just begun to come out of the darkness — in a big, Gloria Estefan-esque way. She crushed a doubleheader of live vocal performances: first the emotional "Anyone" at the Grammys, then a flawless, soaring national anthem at the Super Bowl a week later.  MINZY 210405-Black Shirt

"I was assuming that the world was going to be fine, and I was going to go on tour and release an album," she says, shaking her head in disbelief. "One year ago today, I had not met my ex-fiancé! The amount that has changed in 12 months is crazy." She stops herself: "I hate that word," she says, "but it is wild." 

When EW talks with Lovato in early March, she's curled up with a laptop at her Los Angeles home, barefaced and beaming on a Friday afternoon before one of her precious weekends off. She never asks to go off the record, but she does interject several times with concerns she's either rambling or has given a canned answer, a habit she says reminds her too much of how she used to be.

She laughs a lot. Sometimes her eyes well up with tears, and then she laughs again. She seems easy in her skin, radiant with self-awareness — and that alone is a stark reminder of how truly close she came to dying. Most young stars with such heavy hearts don't survive to tell their story, especially in music: Justin Townes Earle, Juice WRLD, and Mac Miller all died in the last few years from some combination of fentanyl, cocaine, and oxycodone in their bodies. The ones who live to see their battles through in full public view usually pay dearly for the privilege (see: Framing Britney Spears). 

As revealed through excruciating personal footage in the documentary Demi Lovato: Dancing With the Devil, after six years of very public sobriety, she started drinking again and reconnected with former drug dealers for a perilous escalation from coke and Xanax to crack and heroin. In the film, she shares a chilling glass-eyed selfie that she took after the first time she smoked crack.
