BlindGossip – Mom was worried about something much more important than her daughter’s increasingly wild and erratic behavior. She was worried about how public perception of that behavior would affect Girl’s career. So, after a particularly shocking incident, Mom decided to get Girl out of the public eye for a while by taking her away to another city.
Girl quickly got bored hiding out in the hotel, so Mom flew in one of Girl’s friends, and the two of them spent a couple of weeks shopping and getting spa treatments… while Mom came up the concept of “reh*b”. It was a calculated way for Girl to continue to stay out of the public eye for an extended period of time. More importantly, as long as Mom and Girl never admitted that she was going there for dr*g- or alc*hol-related problems, it would be difficult for people to criticize Girl when she got out. So, Girl was sent off to “rehab” for unspecified problems.
Now you know that it was all a public relations move and that Girl was in treatment for a much shorter amount of time she and Mom claim. And while we’re glad that Girl actually did wind up getting help with some of her very real issues, her best chance at true recovery will happen when she starts being honest. That’s going to be difficult with such a scheming mother.
It’s Demi Lovato! Source: BlindGossip
After the backup-punching incident in 2010, it was announced that Demi had a “nervous breakdown” and was going to rehab.
The first lie was in failing to tell the truth: Demi was an alcoholic and a coke addict, and needed to go to rehab to deal with her addictions.
The second lie was their claiming that she had gone to rehab. Actually, instead of going straight to rehab like they claimed, Mom and Demi simply holed up in a Chicago hotel, where she hung out for several weeks with a friend who was flown in to keep her company.
They said that Demi was in rehab at the Timberline Knolls Residential Treatment Center in Chicago, IL. The truth is that she went to rehab only when the press didn’t die down after a couple of weeks. And then she went to rehab for a MUCH shorter time than was claimed.
And all of that evasive and lying behavior was carefully orchestrated by Mom: The Addict and The Enabler.
BTW, Demi Lovato’s mother Dianna Hart de la Garza, is also an addict. According to The New York Post:
It’s been a rough couple of weeks for former Disney star Demi Lovato.
On Monday, news broke that Lovato’s mother and manager Dianna Hart de la Garza checked into an undisclosed treatment facility for unknown issues recently. A source told the New York Post’s Page Six, “It has been a tough year for Demi, and her mom has been a constant source of support. But fame has also taken its toll on her family. Now [that] Demi is strong again, her mom could take some time to deal with her own issues.”
Ms. De la Garza is believed to be out of treatment and back home with her family.
Demi’s mother is not only an addict. She is the worst enabler of Demi’s behavior.
Everyone got this right, with Katie201 being first!



OH MY GOD…..why am i so gullible??!!…Demi and her Lohan-esque family.
demi lovato
Girl: Demi Lovato. Mom: Dianna De La Garza. Sorry, didn’t buy the whole bipolar thing, which sounds like a ripoff of CZJ.
As much as I could see White Oprah doing this, I’m going to say Demi Lovato. She’s been to rehab and the photo looks a little like her and her mum.
Long time reader, first time poster! Love ya BG! xo
Hello, Tele! Love, BG
I was thinking the same thing. Her mother has the same hair color, as you can see in these photos.

Not to mention, the whole thing Demi’s younger sister Madison did on twitter to gather support for her sister seems a bit too much of PR move for a 9 year old to think up on her own. http://www.zimbio.com/Madison+De+La+Garza/articles/1lPqZf35gJM/Help+Madison+De+La+Garza+Make+Christmas+Gift
Demi Lovato. “her best chance” = Sonny with a Chance
Lindsay?
Lindsey has never been away. She was always in our faces (sigh). I think it’s D to the emi.
agreed, they did a pretty good job. I was totally duped and felt very sorry for her being away from her family in rehab for so long…however a few months at a spa sounds rather appealing to me right now!
Are you referring to Lindsay or Demi Lovato?
Oh, forget it, probably you are referring to Demi..
Her ‘best chance”…Sonny with a Chance…Demi Lovato
Agreed–this is Demi all the way.
Demi Lovato
oh demi..
I’d say Lovato (claims Eating Disorder and nervous breakdown) who was in a long time, except I thought she was sent straight after her incident. Linds was court ordered so not her.
Demi Lovato – it was a “shocking incident” when she hit a dancer
Demi?
The incident was she punched her backup dancer.
and her rehab was in Chicago..and there were sightings of her out-and-about while she was there.
Demi Lovato
Demi Lovato?
Demi Lovato and her mum. The picture has a dark haired daughter and a fair haired mum.
Demi and her daughter, Scout.
The recent pictures definitely point to her being a bit of a wild child.
I though Demi had pretty good parents? Oh well.
No, her childhood acting bud, Selena Gomez, have good parents. Not saying that all good parents have good kids, or vice versa.
Sounds like Demi to me.
Demi Lovato. I don’t trust that mother and stepfather and think it’s odd the first thing she does is give an interview with People. The poor girl has real problems.
Yes, her fame hungry mom.
I agree for Demi. Demi has dark hair and her mother has red hair (see here http://cdn.buzznet.com/media/jjr//2009/04/demi-dinner/demi-lovato-dinner-time-04.jpg) as with the picture above.
Demi Lovato? doesn’t exactly sound like her but it’s the only guess I have
Demi Lovato. She was in rehab for emotional problems, and her mom seems like a scary momager.
Demi Lovato
I agree this is totally Demi, but was the plan to tell everyone that she is bipolar? Won’t that affect her career if her image is that she’s unstable? Or is the plan that she go the way of the Britney? Either way, SICK.
bipolar is better than out of control drinking, drugging & public fornication.
Maybe Demi Lovato? Does she have a mom-ager?
Yes I agree. It’s more than likely Demi. Did Miley disappear for any reason? She’s the only other person that could fit this but I don’t believe she disappeared.
Not that I actually know who she is, but Demi Lovato “decided to seek medical care for her physical and emotional issues at a treatment center….she is not in drug rehab” (http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20439172,00.html).
Yes, that’s the story her family is putting out.
Demi Lovato!
“her best chance” = sonny with a chance
Yeah, pix indicate mom is blond and Demi has dark hair, so this must be it. This is barely blind since only a handful of people have publicly been to rehab lately and half who have are men…soooo
Was it Demi Lovato who went to rehab for undisclosed personal issues (cutting, etc)? Or was it Selena Gomez? I’m getting my messed up Disney stars confused. I’ll go with both, lol.
It obviously sounds like Lindsay… but Demi was also mysteriously sent off to rehab in somewhere random like Ohio.
Also, Lindsay’s mom appears too whacked out to actually start caring about Lindsay’s behaviour…and it’s pretty well known why LaLohan was shipped off.
DEMI, on the other hand…well there was wide speculation as to why she went off, but never full confirmation of what happened.
So, my vote is for Demi. I hope she gets some more help with all those salacious issues for such a young girl.
I looked at a photo of Demi with her mom and the blind photo matches so much that I can’t see anybody else for the blind.
Demi Lovato?
The Disney girl Demi Lovato.
Demi?
demi lovato? she was out of the public eye for three months in an undisclosed rehab centre for “emotional and physical issues” after hitting her dancer (which could be the particularly shocking incident) and then found out she was bipolar. plus there were all the rumours about her doing cocaine etc which wouldn’t be good for her disney image!
first time guess! love this site BG, you’re helping me get through my final year of uni!
Welcome, Lux! (Just don’t forget to study occasionally!) Love, BG
demi lovato
Demi lovato
Demi Lovato
Why would people criticize her if drugs were reason she was sent to “reh*b”? The reason people give LL such a hard time is the unbelievable level of denial going on in her world. To me it seems like most people root for who ever is really trying to get help, no matter what the issue.
Except maybe s*x addiction… seems like most people think that one is bs.
Demi Lovato.
This kind of sounds like Demi L (with the shocking incident = fighting that other chick at the airport or whatever). I hope not though, as it seems like she was working hard at overcoming some serious issues (bulimia, bipolar, etc).
Demi Lovato.
Demi Lovato?
This is absolutely Demi Lovato. Mainly because tonight is her interview. She also said after she left tour she thought she was going to LA but instead her Mom took her to Dallas. We’ve all heard the rumor that she was using coke. Plus I don’t buy that she has all these issues NOW because someone called her “fat” at 8. This girl still has issues because she quit the show because she wasn’t comfortable being in front of the camera with her body so not sure this PR plan will end successful.
Also…her mom has leaked Demi’s personal life to certain bloggers. Hence the “scheming”.
Yup..she especially leak info about her daughter and joe Jonas
Demi
Sounds like Demi Lovato. I wouldn’t mind a “rehab” for months at a spa.
Thought that’s what rehab for celebs was.
Demi Lavato
Demi
It’s Whitney and Bobbi they are talking about it on Wendy Williams right now.
Demi Lovato
my first idea but her daughter has a career?
I havent heard anything scheming about Demis mom, anyone have any info? And Girl is capitalized.
Demi Latavo? The Disney girl that just got out of rehab..
Demi Lovato????
Demi Lovato?
demi lovato
Demi Lovato
Demi Lavato!
My guess is Demi Lovato, especially with “her best chance at true recovery” — Sonny with a Chance. I bet the friend is Selena Gomez — the brunette in the pic looks a bit like her.
Demi Lovato
Demi Lovato. Her mom is a huge stage mom and would do anything to protect her daughters reputation.
Demi Lovato – she is now attempting to join the CZJ crew in “admitting” she was there for bipolar. Which I somehow doubt very much.
My guess is Demi Lavato. She supposedely went to rehab, I don’t recall hearing the exact reason for it… She was out of the spotlight for a short while.
Guys, this is obviously not Demi Lovato for a number of reasons.
1. Most importantly, the timeline doesn’t line up. Demi was not out of the public eye for “a couple of weeks” before her mother came up with the idea of rehab — the rehab stint was announce within 48 hours of her leaving the Jonas Brothers tour.
2. Demi was not sent to rehab for “unspecified problems.” Her publicist did give a (vague) reason when she went in, and she has since been more specific about what Demi was being treated for.
3. There are paparazzi pics of Demi out near the Timberline Knolls treatment center in Chicago and entering an outpatient facility in Santa Monica after being released from treatment — that would mean her mom had to organize paparazzi photo shoots of Demi in and around treatment centers to make the story work. Why would the blind item not mention that the mom went so far as to do paparazzi photo shoots? That seems like a BIG plot point to leave out.
4. This may not be definite because it comes from Disney stans, but: apparently there are now people who correspond with Demi on Twitter who are/were at Timberline Knolls and met her there — so she would have had to set foot in the treatment center at some point to meet them. Again, that seems like a BIG plot point to leave out in a story about a “scheming” mother.
But really, the ONLY thing you need to determine that this item ISN’T Demi is the first point, which is that the timeline is all wrong for Demi.
(Also, those of you saying she’s jumping aboard the bipolar train after CZJ got good publicity for it: wrong. Demi admitted she was bipolar in interviews with People and 20/20, both of which were conducted LAST MONTH, before CZJ came out as bipolar.)
Welcome to BG, Demi…
lol seriously…*waves* hi Demi…
Ha, I was about to welcome Demi to this site as well
I’m always amused by newly diagnosed bipolar people who spout on and on about how NOW they have all this clarity and NOW they’re stable and have everything figured out, because they know they’re bipolar. I mean, I did the same thing, but then I realized treating it is the real battle. I read her interview and it made me chuckle. I really do wish it had been that quick and easy for me to deal with such a difficult disorder. It took me around a year to get everything sorted out: to get the right combination of meds, to get my destructive behaviors changed, and to learn how to deal with people who, er, “de-stabilized” me. And I *still* cycle if I step outside my little routine… stop taking my meds, miss a couple days of workouts, sleep too much or too little for a few days in a row.
I wish her the best, but I hate to tell her, the earlier the onset of the disorder, the more severe it usually is. This does not bode well for Ms. Lovato. She’d best get the substance abuse under control.
Demi Lovato is almost definitely NOT bipolar and is another borderline in the making. Borderlines often claim to be or are misdiagnosed as bipolar (eg LiLo). The question is whether she was misdiagnosed or she us using bipolar disorder as a convenient excuse.
I completely agree – she is borderline, not bipolar. But really, she is mostly a drug addict with weight and self esteem issues (which you can certainly have absent of borderline or bipolar).
Welcome to adulthood, Demi! You are off to a fine start!
Woah, I think that’s an even tougher diagnosis to make without having ever spoken to her or being privy to her personal relationships and how she manages (or trashes) them.
Just sayin’.
Very good point. I will preface my answer with “My suspicion is….”
Demi’s mother is very stretchy..
She used to blabbed about her daughter’s relationships in a gossip site..the guy who owned the site got soo frustrated that the Lovato family accused him.. of being a liar in public… that he outed demi’s mom as his source with actual proof. It was hilarious!
The first person I thought of was Lourdes & Madonna. The “Girl” made me think of material girl. I don’t know if she’s actually disappeared at any time recently. Demi Lovato seems like a good guess though.
Wait forget it, reread blind and they don’t really fit, but maybe in the future. I’m on board with Demi .
I’ve said it one and I’ll say it again….Demi probably got preggo with a Joe Jonas baby….They probably never broke up in truth and That relationship with Ashley Greene was kinda cover up for that….The way Demi gained weight Its impossible she was at a clinic for eating disturbs..
This could easily be Demi.
The only person I can think of who fits this description of events would be Demi. The destructive behavior, drugs, sex in the tour bus, getting intimate with Bieber from a past blind, punching the dancer, the sex tape rumors, the leaked sexy photos. This has to be Demi.
maybe I’m reading too much into it, but Girl is with a capitalized G. Four letters. DEMI.
Mom is capitalized with M, mother, is not. Could her mom maybe be called Dia? I think her name is Dianna or something.
