Promoters gave me drugs: Lovato

Los Angeles, April 25 (IANS) Singer-actress Demi Lovato has accused her promoters of plying her with free drugs in a bid to get her to return to their clubs and restaurants.

"Promoters gave me drugs and alcohol in restaurants or clubs. They wanted me to come back so I would be seen there. They were basically kissing my a**," she said.

The singer, who was admitted to rehab for three months in 2010 after punching a dancer on a plane during a tour with the Jonas Brothers, claims that people in Hollywood used to fall over themselves to give her illegal substances.

"I thought they were my friends. I thought I was having fun. Being a celebrity can be dangerous. Nobody says no. That's why so many end up overdosing and dying. It could definitely have happened to me," she added.
