AceShowbiz - Demi Lovato suffered a bloody face injury after hitting their head on a crystal. On Wednesday, July 13 ahead of an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel's chat show, the "Heart Attack" hitmaker posted a video on TikTok showing a forehead gash and said it would need stitches.
The short clip showed the 29-year-old, who is non-binary and changed her gender pronouns to they/them, covering their forehead with their hand as a man could be heard saying, "How are they gonna know?… nobody's gonna know." They then revealed the wound and appeared to mouth the word "f***."
In the caption, Demi wrote, "Guess who hit their head on a crystal and has to get stitches before Kimmel tomorrow???" Their clip was posted before they was set to perform on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on Thursday, July 14.
Demi added a string of hashtags to their post, including one referencing their new single "Substance", from the Grammy nominee's forthcoming album "HOLY FVCK", due out August 19.
About the record, the "Let It Go" singer said, "The process of making this album has been the most fulfilling yet, and I'm grateful to my fans and collaborators for being on this journey with me. Never have I been more sure of myself and my music. And this record speaks that for itself."
The release came after Demi's 2018 brush with death following claims that they suffered three strokes, a heart attack and "brain damage" after a drug overdose that year. It was believed to be caused by heroin and fentanyl-laced oxycodone, with the brain damage leaving them unable to drive as they said they were stricken with "blind spots in my vision."
In the documentary "Dancing with the Devil", Demi opened up about the incident, "My doctors said that I had five to 10 more minutes." They also said they still drank and smoked marijuana after 2018, but they have apparently got totally clean after entering rehab again in 2021. They said they now feel "sober is the only way to be."
