Celeb News: Demi Lovato shades Xtina

My [recent] inspirations are people like Kelly Clarkson, and the people that I listened to when I was growing up were more known for their vocals rather than their sex appeal. I had a lot of respect for Whitney Houston, and Christina Aguilera, on some songs where she was really amazing and wasn't trying to be sexy or anything like that. I just found that I had more respect for artists that didn't talk about that stuff, and those were the ones that were more successful.

I feel like, if you have talent, you don't have to go down that route. If you don't have to sing about drinking and partying and sex, then don't. I have a little sister that's listening to this music -- the last thing I want to do is release music that is gonna influence her in a way that will take her down the wrong path. My dad and my family hear this music! I don't want to feel too uncomfortable when they're listening to it.

She's not shading her. She's saying she respects Christina's songs when she's not trying to be sexy or anything of that sort. That's it. The statement under that is just a general statement.

Rated R

Oh @ her shading the pretty girls who sing about fun things.

Jealousy is the ugliest trait Demi

Nicole

LMAO because all sex & party songs are bad and all love songs are good. She's about to turn 21 so we can't even use age to excuse her ignorance.

Stephen

That's not Christina shade though.

BlazingLovatic

Is that even shade though?

reppingBey

Sounds like shade to me. I really don't think it was necessary for her to say all that.

Then Atrl is full of ignorant people because most of them think that all of sex & party songs are bad, cringe-worthy, etc

What does having talent have to do with lyrics?

That statement is ignorant tbh.

Travis Bickle

She seems pressed.

This.

As a hybrid, I detect no shade and shall continue onward.

Legends.

Meh. Lots of people have said that they don't understand why Christina sexes it up when she doesn't have to because she actually does have talent. She does what she likes and that's sexual things, who's to stop her.

Not all girls who sing about sex or wear risque things are doing so because they think that's the only way they'll be successful, sometimes they do it because they genuinely want to.

But then again i've heard her talk about artists like Rihanna with nothing bout praise. No shade to my fave but she talks about sex and partying, maybe she just doesnt want Christina doing it?

DynamiteD1VA

It's more a backhanded compliment? I don't think she meant it as shade though

So if you have an amazing voice you can't sing about drugs and sex like the lessor folk?

There are certain artists that parents should use their own discretion to allow/disallow their kids to listen to the artist's music. Like, just because Rihanna is all over radio doesn't mean you should let your child go ahead and listen to Cockiness & Birthday Cake.

Basically she like's Christina's non-Xtina songs. Dirrty must not have been her jam in middle school.

Yet Demi is stanning for Azealia who's ***** is in all lyrics.. lol Guess she's keeping Banks from her sister.

What kind of logic, right?
So if you have a great voice, you should ONLY sing ballads, love songs, and songs with deep meaning?
Sometimes, music aint always about the meaning.

If i go to a club i wont be bopping to Give Your Heart A Break per say.

lol that wasn't a shade
