She's getting help for cutting and mentally damaging bullying issues from getting in an altercation with a girl on her tour…not cocaine or any kind of drugs. Get your fucking facts straight before you spew bullshit.

It sucks that you decided to trash her for being mentally unhealthy. What message does that send to all your readers dealing with anxiety, depression, or insecurity? Are all of us "crazy faces" too?

why would you spin what she's going through in this way? especially with all this recent news about the damaging effects of bullying… The issues that she's facing are probably serious, and she's probably having to be really brave right now to stop her tour to get help, throwing her into the spotlight…that can't be easy. And you could have used this story to point out that even stars who have fame, fortune, and seemingly everything are not protected from depression, hurting from bullying, and other mental health issues. PLUS she's trying to get help, which is so responsible and setting such a good example for kids/teens everywhere…if teens going through the same thing as her (which is, from reading this article, more common than you probably think) This isn't her fault, she's probably in a lot of pain, and she reeaally doesn't deserve to be talked about like this, especially after consistently being such a good role model for her fans, and doing so much to fight bullying.

Julia Ann says:
Tue, 2nd Nov 20109:19 am 

Are you kidding? not only is this post insensitive and wrong, but none of your facts are even straight. A.) Demi ISN'T getting help for a drug problem, B.) Jamie Lynn's show Zoey 101 was never on Disney, it was on Nickelodeon, genius. I'm disappointed that CC would even let this be published. You should get a job at a tabloid magazine…you seem to do a fabulous job of fabricating lies out of thin air. Good luck to you.

Jennifer says:
Tue, 2nd Nov 20109:26 am 

One of the reasons Demi stated last year about her bullying issues was that she read online blogs about her and the hateful comments on them and it made her become very critical of herself, leading to her problems with cutting and a serious eating disorder. How would you like it if any of these girls you just ripped apart on your mindless rant read something like this and yYOU were a contributor to one of their disorders? It seems the movements lately going AGAINST bullying to prevent situations like teens killing themselves have not made any impact on you..grow up and find a hobby

Tue, 2nd Nov 20109:36 am 

shame on you!

she is not on coke. she is going for cutting/eating disorder.

a lot of girls have those problems, and even though she has hella $$ and fame, it still doesn't change how hard it is.

at least for most girls no one knows about it, or at least not practically the whole world, so they don't get torn apart by other peoples ignorant views, such as the ignorant views presented in this pathetic article

Tue, 2nd Nov 20101:05 pm 

Alex you're pathetic, you're turning around facts and making up things, just so you can have you super-witty-fantastic-post right? FAIL!

I hate people like you, you're making up gossip and rumors about other people, just to have something "interesting" to say or write!

1. Demi never had a cocaine problem and this is the first site I've read this on, so you clearly made that one up…The other only mentioned eating disorder and cutting, which is something completely different!

2. Jamie Lynn Spears is not Disney!

3. Just a couple of racy pictures won't make Vanessa Hudgens a so called disaster. I'm not a fan, but I'm getting sick of people bashing her for this. A girl taking a couple erotic pictures for her boyfriend, both over legal age, what's wrong with this?

4. "Village Idiot"? Are you discriminating Miley Cyrus for her heritage and accent? I think she's perfectly fine, what has she done wrong? Wearing short skirts? Acting a little bit older?

5. Disney breeds monsters? What about Justin Timberlake, Selena Gomez, Ashley Tisdale, Shia Labeouf, Hilary Duff, Zac Efron, Jonas Brothers, Corbin Bleu, Jesse Mccartney….all hard working and talented people!

alexandra says:
Tue, 2nd Nov 20101:38 pm 

Um, to everyone who commented before me:SLOW YOUR ROLL. I agree that the writer was harsh on Demi, but the REAL fact is that no one knows exactly what is up. This article is tongue-in-cheek, pretty amusing, and hardly even about her. And for those of you that are blathering about everyone having issues—yeah, everyone has issues, and anyone who doesn't want them made public shouldn't put themselves in the public eye. CHILL. OUT.

Melissa says:
Tue, 2nd Nov 20102:10 pm 

Hey, guess what- this is bullying. And if you haven't realized with all the teen suicides recently, bullying is WRONG. To call her a "coke snorting crazyface" when you don't know her and have never been heavily scrutinized to the extent she is on a daily basis… Why are you not applauding her for going to rehab and taking care of herself? I'm embarrassed for you. I really hope you'll realize things like this are what drove her to the edge. My heart breaks for her and that it had to come to this. You obviously have no clue what she's going through (or you wouldn't have written this article), but for god's sake – THINK before you write things like this.

anna says:
Tue, 2nd Nov 20102:36 pm 

Um, to the girl who commented above me: GET A GRIP. we aren't "blathering" about everyone having issues, we are saying that this article, tongue-in-cheek or not, is rude and essentially bullying. Half of the "facts" stated in this article are untrue and made up on the authors part. This is harsh and unnecessary bullying. The difference between this article and ones on this topic on other blogs are the latter reports the story saying that she is getting help for a problem and that the problem is NOT drugs, and this is just a bashing of Lovato saying she was committed for a drug problem which is untrue. And don't even get me started on the fact that she is addressed as a "coke snorting crazyface." Really? Are you serious? There is no reason to write this article with such hate. Yes, celebrities are put in the public eye but that doesn't mean they deserve to be bashed.

Emily says:
Tue, 2nd Nov 20102:42 pm 

i have had a problem with an eating disorder before, and my best friend was a cutter. Thanks for the vote of support College Candy, I guess that means I am a quote "crazyface" too. this is such an inspiring message to send out to your fellow readers

dee says:
Tue, 2nd Nov 20103:25 pm 

alexandra – she was in the public eye since she was 7. do you really believe a 7 year old had the foresight to think 'hmm, when i'm 18, i bet i have mental health issues so maybe i won't play with barney'?

The issue is not about the inaccuracies of the piece or bashing demi, it was about the article treating mental health problems as a joke or a segueway into Disney female train wrecks being a form of entertainment. It isn't something that can be flippantly described as 'crazy faces.' Organisations that deal with people suffering from depression, bipolar and anxiety disorders are struggling to combat the perception of sufferers as so called crazy faces. That perception is an awful thing to perpetuate and this piece does that. Thats the wider issue and the fact that I took extreme offence to. Ignorance about mental health issues isn't an excuse. A site that in the same day posted a blog about celebrating Glee for making a point about male eating and image disorders cannot in that same day bash an 18 year old celebrity struggling with eating and cutting issues. Its bizarre that CC editors didn't think about this and I for one (and I presume many other CC readers) would appreciate a more well thought out piece or an amendment to this piece that would at least recognise the intricacies of mental health problems.

alexandra says:
Tue, 2nd Nov 20104:15 pm 

Anna- I specifically stated that there are no facts in this article.

Dee- Maybe her parents should have considered it?

Just so you all know, I have plenty of experience with cutting, mental issues, and the like. My sister killed herself after a long bout with depression and drugs when I was 16. I am far from insensitive to these things. I also agreed that the writer was harsh. However, this is a stupid blog for bored girls in college, not the freaking New York Times. People can say whatever the hell they want on the internet, and the rest of the article was amusing.

Again, chill out.

Sarah says:
Tue, 2nd Nov 20105:00 pm 

This article is catty and gross. Let me list how.

1. Jamie Lynn wasn't a Disney employee.

2. Britney Spears had two children while married, as an adult? Stop the presses! Starting a family while married totally makes her a bad influence, how dare she show impressionable young girls that it's okay to have children once you're married?

3. All sources are citing that Demi is battling an eating disorder and depression, not going on random coke binges. How awful of you to judge her for her mental illnesses. People like you make it that much harder for girls like her to get help.

I used to really like this site, but after reading this article I don't think I'm going to visit again. I don't want to add traffic to a site run by ignorant, judgmental people like whomever wrote this piece. Get your heads out of your own asses and stop speculating about a mentally ill minor.

Tue, 2nd Nov 20105:32 pm 

ok. I liked this article. Take it with a grain of salt. It's FUNNY. The focus isn't Demi Lovato. It's on all the other teens who have gone down some very bad roads after the went along with Disney (and/or Nickelodeon). Like the curse of the lottery: the curse of Disney. Thank you for writing this article and entertaining many others who I'm sure chose not to comment. She chose to be in the public eye. Bad things are going to be written about her. It happens. To those of you who are commenting negatively, when's the last time you said some form of gossip or something negative towards someone else? I'm sure it was recently.

S.G. says:
Tue, 2nd Nov 20106:35 pm 

As someone who has had close friends hospitalized for eating disorders and depression, I find this incredibly upsetting and fail to see how anyone with half a heart could find this funny.

College Candy writers, you have a lot of great material, but articles like this and a previous, similar one about Mischa Barton just ruin it. I'm afraid I can no longer give this site traffic with a good conscience.

Victoria says:
Tue, 2nd Nov 20106:38 pm 

I love reading College Candy… not so much this article. I felt it incredibly insensitive because as the girls above mentioned, many readers to this website have dealt with cutting, eating disorders, depression, and other issues. Perhaps you should follow the lead of others along the lines of "It gets better".. not to write horrible lies about them. Imagine if that was your sister or best friend or even you, and someone wrote that they were a disaster… maybe what you wanted out of this article was controversy, or to stir up opinions or just to get people talking, I don't know. But just keep in mind that there are definitely girls reading this who are dealing with these issues and you may want to be a bit more sensitive about how you speak.

Jenna says:
Tue, 2nd Nov 20107:23 pm 

I completely cannot grasp my head around the fact that some of you sick f*cks find this FUNNY and entertaining? Take it with a grain of salt? Imagine someone was writing an article about your sister who has depression and an eating disorder and then calls her a "drunk, slutty, strung-out" monster coke addict and a "coke snorting crazyface"? Someone is saying these things about your sister. Then, will you take it with a "grain of salt"? Will you still find it funny and entertaining?

P.S. College Candy, I think there should either be an editing of this post, deletion, or a follow up apology to your readers. If you even care about what your readers opinions are and are reading these comments, anyway. I wouldn't be surprised if you people and the ever-so-sweet "Alex" of South Carolina University were sitting behind your computer screens right this minute laughing at the uproar caused from this post. And no, (as previously stated) this is not some A-list blog or article in the New Yorker that should be held to some high standard, but you owe your readers more than this. Shame on you.

well there is a couple like Hilary …amd Raven though she wasn't a big star in mainstream. But I don't think it's disney per se they are just all too young. It is hard for aa strong, confident adult much less kids who are at the most fragile time ie the teens.

Samantha says:
Wed, 3rd Nov 20109:38 am 

If you're offended by this, you should not be going to college. I doubt some of the people who commented this are in college, and they're in high school. YOU are not Demi Lovato. She is the only person who should be offended.

Do I think it was harsh to say she's snorting coke? Yeah. We don't know the whole story. If she really is, then she's not going to admit it. Alex is just pointing out how these girls get famous young, and then are surrounded by older people and bad influences. Did Alex make a mistake saying Jamie Lynn was on Disney, yes. Should she be burned at the stake for that? NO.

You need to calm down. SHE IS ALLOWED TO EXPRESS HER VIEWS. You CHOSE to read this article. No grabbed you by your hair and FORCED YOU TO READ IT. Yes, eating disorders and bullying are a problem, I was bullied more than any other person I know, am I offended? Absolutely not. But you know that YOUR COMMENTS ARE BULLYING HER? Calling her names, telling her she's wrong, makes you no better than her. All you're doing is adding to the problem.

Is it wrong for me to put all of you down for your comments? Absolutely. But I don't want to read an article, that was for ENTERTAINMENT purposes, and then see HATE comments. If you have a problem with Alex's writing, you need to go to the contact link at the bottom of the page and complain. Ganging up on someone on a public form is just as bad as some of the things in this article. You are not any better than her. I'm offended that any of my fellow readers would disrespect a writer for expressing her views.

Ellen says:
Wed, 3rd Nov 201010:32 am 

I'm so sick of this "hey I'm gonna say something offensive but when people get offended call it tongue-in-cheek" bullshit. Just calling something tongue in cheek doesn't give you the freedom to then write whatever you want without consequences. If Mel Gibson had said his anti-Jewish rant was tongue in cheek, we wouldn't all be like OH well okay then. There are some things that are beyond "tongue in cheek" and this is one of them.

I don't think it's the point that the most of the article is about her, that it puts her in context with other Disney girls. Maybe instead of paying all of them out you could do something actually worthwhile like, oh I don't know, address the issue of young girls being in the public eye from early on, instead of calling a girl with mental health issues a coke snorting crazyface. Yeah, this is just bullying. And Samantha – calling out a bully isn't bullying.

Yes, she's in the public eye, but that doesn't mean you can write whatever you want about her. This just seems out of place on a blog that usually promotes tolerance of others. Maybe it would be more appropriate on Perez Hilton.

And for everyone who's saying if you're offended by it don't read it – what happens to that when you hear about something that offends you (e.g. the Marie Clare article)? Go and learn about cognitive dissonance.

@Samantha, being upset about this article and commenting about it doesn't make me just as "bad" as whoever wrote this. I really think there's a difference between stating your opinion and being postively cruel towards someone going through an unimaginably hard time. And what's a good blog without readers giving their opinions…

Shannon says:
Thu, 4th Nov 201012:37 pm 

Every. Single. One. of you that is bashing this author about bullying is doing the exact same thing. You can't preach about something that you yourself do not follow. The solution to you not liking this article is to not read the site anymore. I guarantee that not one of you leaving will have any effect on College Candy's popularity. It also will not stop them from writing their opinions in a blog. Which, and correct me if I'm mistaken, is the ENTIRE point of a blog. Another thing, there was no reason to point out that the author got MINOR facts about Jamie Lynn's work history wrong. Really??

Anyways, thanks to College Candy for writing another article that was funny and exactly what I like to see on blogs.

Tip…

Jamie Lynn was a Nick darling. She was never on Disney. And she did fairly well for a teen mom. She could have been way worse.

Christina Aguilera was never that bad. Sure she had an overly apparent sex drive but hey, she was 20, I don't think it's too risque for her to do that. She never got overly sexy until she was pretty much a woman.

Lets face it. Being famous, no matter what age, pretty much makes your life abnormal from the get go, and that can have damaging effects. I live in the LA/Orange County area and we constantly get updates on Celebrities. It's just like daily news/going-ons for us, especially they're a major part of the community. This is why I'm never letting my future child start performing until he/she fully understands the implications of being in this business. It is literally the coldest industry in the world, and I would never want that for me. Seeing these poor girls just shows me and the rest of the people in our community what this attention can cause because we all understand (in one way or the other) how it really works in the entertainment industry and it's pretty much the worst place (in my opinion) to be when you're growing up.
