Demi Lovato is known for doing all things outlandish, but this Christmas she took things to a whole new level.
Demi Lovato Gives Her Fans A Christmas Present To Remember By Shaving Her Head
The star displayed the gift that she would be giving to her fans by revealing that she had decided to shave her head. The only other star who had recently done such a thing was none other than Britney Spears.
And we all know how that turned out in light of her problems which emerged under the conservatorship of her father Jamie Spears which only recently ended this year.
But rather than it being a sign of turbulence, Demi wanted to show her fans that she was looking to shed off this year and begin things anew.
In a post to her fans on Instagram, Demi showed a video clip of her new look, as she can be seen posing in different ways. The post was captioned by the following comments: “Shot on FaceTime by @angelokritikos 🖤 #freshstart.”
On closer inspection, Demi’s new look is understandable for the following reasons. First of all, she has spoken in the past about her struggles with gender and identity given that there was an expectation on her to portray a very feminine viewpoint of what a woman should be.
In a prior interview, she remarked: “I went to such great lengths to suppress who I really am to fit this sexy, feminine pop star.”
Secondly, in light of everything that Demi has been through as shown by her overdose problems, the very fact of the matter is that this new image will only go on to fit in with her brand.
And yet, people were divided about it on social media. Although a certain subset of people welcomed the new image, others found that this was a sign of Demi entering into another dark phase of her life.
One person wrote: “The quotes/comments stay misgendering and mental illness jokes towards Demi and it’s being normalized.
“BTW shaving your head does NOT correlate to being crazy. That’s the same shit the media pulled on Britney in 2007. Y’all are the problem.”
As long as Demi is happy with her image, then who are we to question otherwise. If you liked reading this article, then check out our other features on the Daily Soap Dish.
