Singer Demi Lovato said she suffered three strokes and a heart attack following her overdose.
The 28-year-old singer reveals it all in her upcoming YouTube documentary “Demi Lovato: Dancing With the Devil.” The four-part project will detail private details about her life, including when she was found passed out in her Los Angeles home back in July 2018. The pop star had overdosed a month after relapsing, E! Online reports.
Throughout her young adult life, the singer has struggled with a drug and alcohol addiction. She spent nearly two weeks in a hospital before being sent to a rehab center and sober living facility for months. “I had three strokes,” she said in the documentary’s trailer. “I had a heart attack. My doctors said that I had five to 10 more minutes.”
The star recalled the tragic moment in her life, saying, “I crossed a line that I had never crossed.” In the YouTube documentary, her friend and actor, Matthew Scott Montgomery, then says, “Are we talking about heroin? Are we doing that?” According to E! News, the singer had to be revived after overdosing with Narcan, an opioid antidote. There were no reports on what specific drugs led to her hospitalization, the outlet reports.
The documentary shows touching moments with Lovato’s mother, Dianna De La Garza, next to her daughter, who is strapped to an IV. “We’re watching all of her blood come out of her body into a machine.” Montgomery said the singer said she “can’t see anything.”
“I’ve had so much to say over the past two years wanting to set the record straight about what it was that happened,” Lovato said in the trailer, later adding, “I’ve had a lot of lives. Like my cat, you know? I’m on my ninth life.”
We’re happy to know Demi is doing much better today!
