Drug Allegations Emerge in Demi Lovato Saga

By Sarah Crow Posted Nov 10th 2010 03:00PM

A shocking new allegation has been brought against teen star Demi Lovato.

Life & Style reports that Lovato's recent admission to a rehabilitation facility was not solely spurred on by "emotional and physical issues." Rumors have been swirling that Lovato is receiving treatment for cutting and body image issues, although the latest allegations indicate that Demi's problems may be much larger than previously reported.

The latest allegations -- that Lovato is battling drug and alcohol problems -- are based on the word of a college student who claims he saw Lovato at a house party in Texas nearly a year ago.

The alleged eyewitness, identified as Brian Payne, told the magazine, "[Demi] was doing line after line like a pro -- and she was 17 at the time. I just remember her doing it as if she had been doing it for a long time. It didn't seem like something new to her."

Although Lovato's one-time BFF Selena Gomez has declined to comment on Lovato's condition, in a recent interview, she told Latina magazine, "I don't think anybody should be mean because you never understand what's someone is going through. And it is partly [this] business, because it is crazy and hectic ... If this were a normal person, you wouldn't be so judgmental. I feel like people shouldn't judge as much, they should give their sympathy."

Actress Debi Mazar shared in Gomez's support, telling Hollyscoop, "I happen to know [Demi] and she's a lovely girl, I think she's really strong. I wish her the best, I think she is really brave to do that ... I think it's really positive."

Her and those other troubled present, and former Disney Stars, should really get some sisterly advice from Emma Watson. They can still balance, or lead a normal life, if they choose to. There's no contract that says, they can't! Also, a lack of good parenting, is usually the issue.

HAHA ok so I know Brian and he told me that he saw her doing coke last year around this time at a party but I thought he was joking. Because he does the "Coke" himself. I wouldn't believe anything he says, not really a credible source. I believe that he would take a video of something like that, he wants to be famous. I'm surprised it took him this long to say something.
