When you hear the name Demi Lovato, what do you think of?
Whether you know her as a singer, an actress, or an X Factor judge, whether
you're a fan of her or not, you would have heard about her checking herself into rehab, and once out, her
struggles.
We put people up on pedestals, and judge them by a look, on
what you think you know without knowing that
person. Especially well known public figures.
We judge on what we read, hear, see in a paper, or a
misinterpreted interview. We judge them because you think they think they're
better than everyone else, because of their job, their money. Because they're in the public eye, you think
you can without any thought, because they're free game, right? You judge them
on your own misconceptions, but, what does that say about you?
So, I'll ask again.
