Hot damn, she gets better looking with every picture!!

Though we've always thought this singer was flawless, Demi Lovato has very publicly dealt with body dysmorphia issues and eating disorders…

So when she posted a heartfelt and crushing message about how happy she was after seeing her bodacious body at the 2014 Video Music Awards — we couldn't be more thrilled for her!

The Made In The USA singer took to Facebook last night, expressing mixed feelings about a collage of transformative award show looks (which you can see HERE) she gathered to show fans.

In the emotional post, Demi revealed:

"This picture makes me feel so many mixed emotions.. I remember the day I wore the dress in the very first picture. I remember asking for spanx to flatten my stomach because I use to feel so heavy and "fat". Now looking at this picture, you can clearly see my hip bones. It makes me sad because I wasted so many years ashamed of my body when I could've been living the happy and healthy life I live today. It TRULY just goes to show you that your perceptions can lie to you. OR they can make you learn to enjoy life. Fortunately looking at the picture of myself in the red dress yesterday, I not only feel so grateful for the love and support I've had from fans, friends and family, but… I also feel.. beautiful. I'm so excited to live my life the way I deserve to and to the complete fullest. Thank you guys once again.. I'm so thankful for my Lovatics. I love you… And never forget that staying strong is worth it."

We soooo appreciate that Demmerz is continually honest about her struggle!

She's always looked fabulous — we're just happy she's finally seeing her own beauty and embracing her killer body!

I'm glad she feels good about herself - she does look great. But I am so tired of this extreme cleavage look. Wouldn't you rather have people's eyes drawn to your eyes and not your tits? Sorry. That much cleavage is vulgar and desperate.

I agree Rosebud, it looks so contrived, and not sexy at all. It looks like she had to over posture all night so that they wouldn't pop out, what an uncomfortable way to be, along with being so extremely insecure you need to have all eyes on you.

Can Demi talk about anything other than her body and eating disorder? Yeah that's all you are famous for, we get it. Stop beating the dead horse.

This hits home so much, i was also looking at pics of myself from a few years ago just yesterday, and I felt wow, i can't believe how fat i felt. Now that I am 25lbs heavier, I’ve never felt so healthy, I used to starve myself and do drugs to look skinny and obviously got addicted. Now I’m just so happy that I’m sober and that perspective is everything. God she makes me so happy reading this because i felt so down looking at my old pics and thinking I need to look like that again. But was I happy? No I was not. I’m happy now and i am doing what I can to lose the weight I’ve gained in the past 4 years.

Between photoshopping gone wrong and cultural appropriation (above), the list goes on! Smh.

Which is exactly why we compiled all their epic fail moments (below) for you to flip through!

Then sound OFF in the comments to let us know which one was worst!
