demi lovato dealing with double standards bullies

Girlfriend can do it all!

Demi Lovato might have hit a rough patch a couple years ago, but few people have ever bounced back so much stronger!

And now it's all up from here because she's not only setting the music industry on fire with her new album, but she's also speaking out and being heard.

Demi had plenty to talk about with Fashion magazine including how she's trying to not only empower herself but so many other young girls.

She explained:

"Guys can be scandalous and not get any crap for it. In my song [Something We’re Not], I’m saying, 'girls, have your fun—don’t let anyone let you feel bad about your actions. Ever.'"

And feeling bad is still something she's struggling to get past.

DemDem got brutally honest about dealing with the affects of her childhood bullies, but it sure sounds like she'll come out on top. She said:

"I could remember word for word what my bullies said to me. Last night I had nightmares about it…just degrading things that hurt me and affected self-esteem. It affected the way I look at girls my age. I used to fear them."

There's nothing to fear, DemDem! So many girls your age are also your fans!

Be proud!

You people need some help. Demi's talking about getting over her hard childhood and you post crap like 'her outfit offends me' and 'conquering the buffet'. That's pure bull! Get a freakin heart. Demi is inspiring and seems like a good person. Get over yourselves. and that outfit that offends you is way better than any outfit you will ever own.

I agree the outfit was a poor choice.

That double standard exists mainly because it takes zero effort or skill for a girl to get laid, regardless of what she weighs or looks like. Women sit back and pick one, while men generally have to work their ass off for it. Which is why hearing a girl bragging about her sexcapades is simply laughable and eyeroll inducing.

i genuinely think she looks good in that outfit and my reaction is that she is a gorgeous (person) i am much older than her and i still have a deep fear of people my own age. high school was cruel and while i don't have anything to compare it to i would guess even harder when its an all girl school!.

Re: NookiesWA – Are you joking because you basically just said men will sleep with anyone and anything but have to work for it. That's pathetic of the men and they should be judged just as well for being desperate. Oops

Candace Cameron Bure Shows You How To Deal With Body Shamers With THIS Classy Clapback!

Good thing Candace Cameron Bure was raised right -- and dealt with body shaming in more than one very special episode!

The Fuller House star posted a sweet pic with her 18-year-old son Lev (above) on Instagram last week, and rude-as-hell follower wrote:

"All that excersizing, and you still look like you weigh more than your husband, did you change your diet?"

Wow. Such a troll question.

But instead of keeping the focus on her own body, the once and future DJ deftly put the spotlight where it belongs -- on this poor commenter. She wrote back:
