Here are the 12 most candid quotes from “Demi Lovato: Simply Complicated.”

In the film’s opening voiceover, Lovato gives us an overview of her life and details how she views everything that she’s been through in the last 10-years, saying, “I am Demi Lovato. I’m 25. The last decade has taught me a lifetime’s of lessons. I’ve learned that secrets make you sick. I’m learning how to be a voice and not a victim.”

She continues, “I’ve learned that sex is natural. I’ve learned that love is necessary, heartbreak is unavoidable and loneliness is brutal. I’ve learned that the key to being happy is to tell your truth and be okay without all of the answers. This is my story. This is simply complicated.”

3. Why Demi Lovato punched her back up dancer Alex Welch (also known as “Shorty”) in 2010: 

Alex “Shorty” Welch detailed the altercation to People Magazine in 2010, saying, “We were on the plane with the Jonases having this awesome time and I didn’t get a call or text from Demi or a ‘hey, you got a problem with me,’ nothing.” She continued, “And she walks up and punches me and literally walked away and got in her seat.” (See photos of the damage to Welch’s face here.)

Now, Lovato is telling her side of the story and filling the gaps about why the punch happened: “I was in Colombia, I was on the ‘Camp Rock 2’ tour and I invited a bunch of people to dinner,” she began. “My band and my background dancers [were there.] I paid for all the alcohol. Somebody ended up getting weed. I was on Adderall and we had trashed the hotel. The hotel was threatening us. They went to some of the dancers and asked what had happened and I think they told on me for using Adderall.”

She continued, “Somebody told Kevin Jonas Sr. and Phil [McIntyre] (Lovato’s manager) and my dad. I was very upset. I couldn’t believe what had happened. Now it was out that I was on Adderall.”

“The next day, I was in a lot of trouble. I remember going to Kevin Sr. and saying. ‘Listen, I want to thank whoever told on me because I know they were just worried about me and, you know, I just really want to know who told you.’ And I manipulated him into telling me who it was and he said it was Shorty.”

The singer described her relationship with her back up dancer, saying, “Shorty and I had been closed through ‘Camp Rock’ and ‘Camp Rock 2.’ So, when he said Shorty, I remember thinking, ‘I’m about to beat this bitch up…'”

“She had already boarded the plane I just went up to her and it was like a blur. Everyone was freaking out I just remember going and sitting down texting my mom ‘I’m sorry’ and I slept the whole day. I just came to a breaking point.”
