Racy Demi Lovato Photos Circulate Online

By Michael Lopez

At this point, you’ve got to feel a little sorry for Demi Lovato. Not only is the Disney starlet dealing with “emotional issues,” eating disorders and self-mutilation in rehab, but she’s also facing a lawsuit for allegedly punching one of her backup dancers and now negative backlash for scandalous photos circulating online. We imagine it will be pretty tough to get back to normal after this.

The Superficial published photos of Lovato flashing her cleavage while her backup dancers (including alleged assaultee Alex Welch) pose provocatively with her. One photo shows her posing alone in a lacy bra.

By now, we'd hoped that Disney's budding starlets would have learned from their predecessors' mistakes. First of all, if you're getting paid to maintain a “wholesome” image and want to keep your job, avoid the racy snapshots. More importantly, never let your friends take pictures or video of you doing anything you don't want the whole world to see. As Christina Aguilera and Miley Cyrus can attest, you never know who’s going to leak it to the highest bidder.

For now, we really hope Demi is on the mend. Staying out of the limelight is probably the best thing she can do.

Why do you think so many Disney stars taint their wholesome images with provocative behavior? Sound off below or @MTV3.
