Television Projects

Reid. She returned for the second season in 2013. Her salary while on the show is reported to have been as high as $2 million a year. When she began filming the second season of The X Factor USAshe was 19 years 9 months and 5 days old, making her the Guinness World Record holder for youngest judge in the X Factor global franchise.

Personal Life

Lovato has had her share of personal problems. She was treated at the Timberline Knolls Facility in Illinois, for bulimia and self-abuse issues. While under treatment, it was discovered that she also suffers from bipolar disorder. After punching Alex Welch (a backup singer for the Jonas Brothers), Lovato thought it best to seek professional help. She was sober for several years until July 2018 when she reportedly overdosed on drugs and re-entered a treatment facility. Immediately after the overdose she spent 10 days at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and then went straight to rehab.

She has dated a number of high-profile stars, including fellow Disney Channel star Joe Jonas from 2008 to 2010. From 2010 to 2016, she was in a long-term relationship with actor Wilmer Valderrama and later dated professional MMA fighter Luke Rockhold for a few months in 2016. Others she has dated include MMA fighter Guilherme “Bomba” Vasconcelos, fashion designer Henri Alexander Levy, and model Austin Wilson.

Real Estate

When Lovato was 16, she bought her family a $1.88 million house in the Toluca Lake area of Los Angeles. The 5,086 square foot Mediterranean-style home featured six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, wood floors, spacious walk ways and stairways, a private 3rd floor Suite, and a pool with a water-slide. Two years later, in 2010, Lovato dropped $2.25 million on a new family compound in Sherman Oaks, California.

In September 2016, Lovato spent $8.3 million on a home in the Hollywood Hills area of Los Angeles. She listed the home for sale in September 2018 for $9.5 million. This home was basically a nightmare for Lovato. A few months after moving in, strong rainstorms threatened to cause the home to slide down the mountain. A mudslide surged down the hills above into her driveway causing the fire department to temporarily deem the house unlivable. It was in this home in 2018 where she was found after her non-fatal overdose from Oxycodone that had been laced with deadly fentanyl. After trying to sell the home for a number of years, Demi finally offloaded it in June 2020 for $8.25 million.

In September 2020 Demi paid $7 million for a newly-built mansion in Studio City, California.
