Demi Lovato Praises Miley Cyrus For Being Sober: “I Am Really Proud”


Demi Lovato will be the first to tell you getting sober is tricky.
The 24 year-old pop princess just celebrated five years of sobriety after struggling with drug and alcohol addiction.
Now, sister pop star and long time frenemy Miley Cyrus has given up booze and weed, and Lovato is singing her praises, saying, “I am really proud of Miley.”

Cyrus recently told Billboard Magazine on her sobriety,
This is crazy, but I haven’t smoked weed in three weeks, which is the longest I’ve ever gone without it. I like to surround myself with people that make me want to get better, more evolved, open. And I was noticing, it’s not the people that are stoned. I want to be super clean and sharp, because I know exactly where I want to be.
The change in Cyrus is obvious, as her music has taken a turn from the wild to the sincere. Her latest hit, “Malibu,” is jumping up the charts, and has other celeb fans like Katy Perry praising Miley for her new sound.
Cyrus also performed “Malibu” Sunday night at the Billboard Music Awards, looking gorgeous and full of calm energy.
Cyrus told SiriusXM getting sober was fairly easy and a lot of people have offered her support she feels she doesn’t need.
A lot of people have reached out to me and they’re like, ‘You know, if you want help or if you want to go to these meetings,’ and I’m like, ‘No.’ When I want something I can do it. Anything that I want to do, if I want to stop or start something, I can do anything. I just decided not to smoke any more, and now it’s easy for me.
On Cyrus’ sobriety, Lovato told The Hollywood reporter,
I am really proud of Miley. I think that it helps people to know that there are people in the spotlight that have challenges, that are faced with very stressful lives. I think it helps to know that recovery is possible and it’s something that is so important to certain people like myself.

Lovato added, “Addiction doesn’t discriminate, so whenever you are able to take control back, it’s really admirable.”
We wish both women continued success, health, happiness, and more, more, more music!

Jane the Virgin Season Finale Recap: The Wedding of Jane Gloriana Villanueva

Ivonne Coll as Alba, Gina Rodriquez as Jane, Andrea Navedo as Xo. If I could write this whole recap with emojis, there'd be several varieties of hearts, the running man, the dancing woman, and lots and lots of fires and heart-eyed faces. Those creepy dancing twin girls would also make an appearance. And there'd be a gun. My imaginary emoji recap is appealing because it's incredibly hard to come away from a blockbuster hour of television like "Chapter Forty-Four" and pull together coherent thoughts that aren't just "AHHH!" or "WHY would you get ICE for the DAMN CHAMPAGNE?!" or "OMG FACE OFF MASK!" or "Why isn't all of life just Jane and Rogelio doing that father/daughter dance forever?" But I'll give it a try. Jane the Virgin 's season finale is a narrative fireworks display, a shock-and-awe storytelling spectacular that short-circuits emotional processing centers with blazing confidence. It drops j...

The Zipless, First-Person Violence of “Hardcore Henry”

The movie’s hyperkinetic action was shot using tiny GoPros. CREDIT STX ENTERTAINMENT / COURTESY EVERETT Raised from a watery chamber resembling a womb, Henry, a full-grown man, looks out on the world as if for the first time. Viewers see Henry’s world through his own eyes (which is how all of “Hardcore Henry” is made), and his prospects seem circumscribed. Henry finds himself in a hospital-like setting; he’s unable to speak, and he’s missing an arm and a leg. In short order, however, a medical professional named Estelle (Haley Bennett) fits him with high-tech prostheses, which she snaps into place, attaches to his body, and covers with a coating of his own skin. Henry is also suffering from memory loss, and Estelle reminds him of one detail: they’re husband and wife. When armed invaders breach the operating room, Henry discovers what Estelle already knew—that they’re someplace in the sky, inside an airplane—and husband and wife clamber through vents to reach a conveniently located ...
