Demi Lovato

Demi Lovato had lofty goals: “I wanted not only to make a great album, but I also want my music to inspire people, to help them get through whatever they’re going through in their lives. That’s the ultimate goal with every piece of music I make.” Demi not only met, but exceeded her goals. The multi-talented 17-year-old became a household name thanks to her starring roles in TV smashes such as the Disney Channel sitcom “Sonny With a Chance” and “Camp Rock” the movie —but, Demi says emphatically, “music is my first love.”

In the last year alone, she has earned a #1 album, headlined her first solo tour, starred in two hit Disney Channel movies; “Princess Protection Program” and “Camp Rock”; and an original Disney Channel show, “Sonny With A Chance” which is receiving series-record-breaking ratings.

Recently Demi filmed “Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam” which will premiere late summer on the Disney Channel. The second season of “Sonny With A Chance” is now airing on Disney to series record breaking numbers. She has made guest appearances on ABC hit shows such as “Grey’s Anatomy" and “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.” She also recently returned from headlining a successful South American tour.

Always the performer wanting to give more to her fans, Demi repeatedly watched a Bruce Springsteen concert DVD for some tips. “Watching that DVD really helped,” she admits. “Instead of worrying about what you look like, or if you hit the notes, it’s understanding that people come to your concert to have fun with you and to experience your music with them. You’re getting the opportunity to connect with every person all at once. Now I don’t beat myself up if I hit a wrong chord on my guitar.”

“Excited” is a theme that runs through Demi’s music, life and personality, and her ever-growing legion of fans can’t help but be swept along with Demi’s honesty and talent. Whether she’s covering a Bon Jovi song live, downloading music (most recently “Hey, Good Looking” by Hank Williams, Jr.—it reminds her of her Papa), or trying to plan her 18th birthday party, Demi’s pure enthusiasm for everything she is and does is clear and her followers feel it and respond in kind. “I feel ultimately thankful to them and God, because I wouldn’t have any of this if it wasn’t for them. I owe it all to them,” Demi concludes. “I feel like my fans are more than fans to me, they’re my friends.”

Demi is currently writing and recording her next album and about to hit the road on a world tour with the Jonas Brothers and her friends from “Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam.”
