Demi Lovato is taking on those criticizing her sexy Cosmopolitan magazine cover and those like it
Lovato, Cosmo's September cover girl, seemed to be fighting back Thursday against such protests with the hashtag "#unwrapmycosmo."
"What these individuals who are protesting don't understand is that for the first time in a long time I feel incredibly EMPOWERED and the MOST BEAUTIFUL I've ever felt on this magazine," she shared on Instagram. "It's so liberating to be able to show the world how confident a woman can be once she learns to love herself."
She added, "It took soul searching and a bit of time before I learned to embrace my body therefore I could not have been more excited to do this shoot."
Further driving home her point, Lovato went on to say that she thinks it's healthy for her confident cover to be on display.
The support for Demetria so far. It's nice to see ATRL moving beyond the stale weight shade
I never understood why people did that. She had body image issues, so I think it's really messed up to try to make fun of her for that very reason just to get a bunch of unknowns to quote you with "" and "." Pathetic.
You didn't learn to love yourself, you lost weight to contribute to society's vision of an attractive woman.
These popstars that are always like "love yourself and accept who you are" when they are fat then suddenly lose weight and scream to the high heavens how much they learned to love themselves
