Demi Lovato Claims Her Drug Dealer Raped Her The Night She Overdosed

Demi Lovato Recounts When Her Drug Dealer Allegedly Sexually Assaulted Her

Demi Lovato claims that her former drug dealer sexually assaulted her the night she suffered a drug overdose. The pop singer said that after the attack, she woke up in the hospital after the incident and doctors asked her if she had had consensual sex.

“I remembered him lying on top of me, so I said, ‘yes,'” she said in her YouTube docuseries, “Dancing With the Devil.”

She said it took a while for her to realize that it could not have been consensual.

“It wasn’t until maybe a month after my overdose that I realized, ‘Hey, you weren’t in any state of mind to make a consensual decision,'” she said. “That kind of trauma doesn’t go away overnight.”

She added, “I wish I could say the last night that I ever touched heroin was the night of my overdose but it wasn’t.

“I wanted to rewrite his choice of violating me. I wanted it now to be my choice, and he also had something that I wanted, which were drugs. I ended up getting high.”
