The US Capitol in Washington was stormed by pro-Donald Trump supporters on Wednesday, January 6, with the intention to overturn the results of the 2020 Presidential elections which determined that former Vice President, Joe Biden, had won. A woman was also shot and killed during the violent clash between the demonstrators and the police.

Now, the entire situation seems to have angered musician Demi Lovato. The singer, who stays very active on social media, time and again posts things concerned with democracy. In the latest, the songstress took to her official Twitter account to condemn the attack on the Capitol. 

What did Demi Lovato exactly say?

The 28-year-old award-winning singer shared two tweets with her more than 55 million followers on Twitter. In the first one, the talented crooner shared a text image with the caption, “My heart is broken. It makes me to sad to believe how naive I was to think this couldn’t possibly happen, and yet it did. Here we are. For everyone in my comments saying “where’s d7” or wanting me to sing instead of speaking up about what needs to change in this country...” The text image read, “So we all just gonna act like its ok that white folks are storming the Capitol with no police response! But when we protesting to save our damn lives, the police beat the S*T out of us. Come on y’all!”

In the second tweet, the ‘Skyscraper’ hitmaker got furious and announced that she is working on a new song after what she witnessed at the Capitol. “THIS IS WHY I POST AS MUCH AS I DO. THIS IS WHY I CARE. THIS CANNOT HAPPEN ANY F**KING MORE. I’m angry, embarrassed and ashamed. I’m in the studio working on something special after today’s assault on democracy. #impeachtrumptonight”

 

 

How did the fans react?

The Internet did not waste any time to react to Demi's angry tweets. One user requested, “Collab with Ariana grande on this song, please.” Another said, “No girl pls, u can speak out whatever u want, we appreciate u using your plataform but we don't need no songs about it.” One slammed the singer and shared, “Girl just open your f**king purse and donate some money...it does a lot more than writing and releasing songs then keeping the proceeds or profit made..like” Another added, “Today was bad enough, now we gotta deal with a new demi lovato song about it i’ve HAD IT.” One individual asserted, “People really dragging Demi lovato for clout when they need to be focusing on the real issues. The world is getting scarier day by day.”

Most seemed to share the thoughts of this user: "Please no. another song about tr*mp is not what we need you can take Paul off your team, that would demonstrate a lot."

One person tweeted, “Wait LOL why am I laughing that Demi Lovato is trending??? Like that’s so random but really pulls this whole day together!” One said, “Demi we love you so much and appreciate you being an advocate and speaking out but we need new music from you to escape the scary world we are living in, we miss your artistry and how your songs make us feel. These highly political songs are just not it. With love and respect.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Is Demi Lovato anti-Trump?

This is not the first time when Demi has expressed her anger toward the Trump government or its supporters. Interestingly, she also dropped a track against Donald Trump​ called ‘Commander In Chief’ in October 2020. The lyrics of the track go like, “Commander in chief, honestly, If I did the things you do/ I couldn't sleep, seriously, Do you even know the truth?/ We're in a state of crisis, people are dying, While you line your pockets deep/ Commander in chief, how does it feel to still be able to breathe?”  The official video of the song was released on YouTube and gathered close to 9 million views. It was in response to the 2020 United States presidential election.
