Demi Lovato is sober, healthy and loving her body – cellulite and all!
The Confident singer took to Instagram to share a completely unedited bikini picture, calling the move “my biggest fear.”
Posing in a barely-there animal print bikini, Demi told fans, “This is my biggest fear. A photo of me in a bikini unedited. And guess what, it’s CELLULIT!!!!”
“I’m just literally sooooo tired of being ashamed of my body, editing it (yes the other bikini pics were edited – and I hate that I did that but it’s the truth) so that others think I’m THEIR idea of what beautiful is, but it’s just not me. This is what I got,” Demi captioned the empowering post. “I want this new chapter in my life to be about being authentic to who I am rather than trying to meet someone else’s standards. So here’s me, unashamed, unafraid and proud to own a body that has fought through so much and will continue to amaze me when I hopefully give birth one day.”
“It’s such a great feeling to be back in tv/film while not stressing myself with a strenuous workout schedule before 14 hour days, or depriving myself from a real birthday cake rather than opting for watermelon & whip cream with candles because I was terrified of REAL cake and was miserable on some crazy diet shit,” Demi revealed. “Anyway, here’s me, RAW, REAL! And I love me. And you should love you too!”
Demi also took to opportunity to let fans know she is going to be heading back to the studio and has plans to record an anthem.
As for sharing the unedited pic of herself, Demi told fans who may be struggling with the way they look, “I’m not stoked on my appearance BUT I am appreciative of it and sometimes that’s the best I can do. I hope to inspire someone to appreciate their body today too.”
