Sorry, Not Sorry: Demi Lovato Says She Feels the ‘Most Confident’ During Sex
It kind of makes sense that Demi Lovato recently said wedding bells are ringing in their ears, because according to the singer, sorry, not sorry, she feels the best all along with boyfriend Jutes.
“I feel the most confident when I’m having sex,” Lovato (who uses they/she pronouns) said in the second part of her interview on the LadyGang podcast that dropped on Tuesday (Sept. 19), in which they discussed body image, resiliency and her new rocked-up Revamped album.
The “risqué” answer came during a round of a game called “sorry, not sorry,” during which Lovato told the show’s three hosts that they are not sorry for constantly posting pics of Jutes on their socials. “It might be cringey, but I don’t care. I love it and I think it’s cute,” Lovato said.
When the hosts laughed and said “tell me what that’s like” to Lovato’s sex swagger, Demi, 31, explained, “Cause you’re so present that you’re not thinking about what is actually like… what clouds your judgment throughout the rest of the day, or at least that’s how it is for me. It’s not that way for everybody.”
Earlier this month, Lovato told Howard Stern that she and songwriter Jutes have definitely discussed marriage. “It’s been about a year and a half [of dating], so we’re taking our time with it a little bit, you know? I think it’s important not to rush that,” they said. “We started off as friends, and we built that foundation of friendship first. There’s this partnership there that is just so magnetic, and the way that we laugh together — it’s just nonstop. I think if you can find someone that makes you feel safe, that you’re so attracted to, that you laugh with constantly, that’s the formula of a really great relationship.”
Elsewhere in the pod, while talking about her 2015 song “Confident,” Lovato also dove into what it’s like to be on stage and not always feel confident on bad body image days and having to “fake it til you make it… [but] I think I’ve just been doing it so long that it’s like second nature for me,” they said. Lovato laughed at a question about whether she would ever go back to acting, saying they’d love to do a limited series.
“Something that has kept me from going back to acting is body image issues,” explained the former Camp Rock and Sonny With a Chance star. “That’s another thing where you have to show up every single day and be on camera no matter what.” That said, Demi would consider a movie or limited-series role, but when the hosts made a pitch for the pieces of a potential EGOT, Lovato said Broadway seems like a stretch because her memory skills are not great.
