she's bland as a celebrity, and when she does make headlines it's mostly negative and people get the impression that she is unlikeable

she's bland as a performer...she just stands there and sings with very little else going on, even in her most upbeat songs...the VMA performance was the biggest performance i've ever seen from her so hopefully she's improving in that aspect
her music is generic and most of it could be sung by any other pop girl. she doesn't have a distinct Demi Lovato sound. however CFTS & Confident are better than anything she's released since Unbroken so i have high hopes for this album
