Demi Lovato promotes ‘life-threatening’ anti-aging injections at Met Gala
Fans are “disappointed” in the star for straying from her natural “body positivity” stance.
Demi Lovato recently posted photos of her Met Gala outfit along with a caption promoting her positive experience with Xeomin, a cosmetic injection known for removing fine lines and wrinkles.
The star showed off her Met Gala look in a shared post on Xeomin’s Instagram account, writing: “Still thinking about this evening and this dress🤍 Thanks to my amazing glam team for making me feel so beautiful.”
She continued: “With the help of Xeomin (incobotulinumtoxinA) @xeominaesthetic my wrinkles are smooth and I’m ready for the red carpet.”
The post featured a series of images of the “Sorry Not Sorry” singer posing in a silver dress adorned with flowers. The final slide listed a number of warnings, including possible “life-threatening” side effects.
Lovato’s post was filled with comments criticizing the singer’s promotion of anti-aging injections, despite the fact that she has often publicly emphasized the importance of natural beauty.
Several fans expressed their “disappointment,” writing, “Demi, really? I grew up with you telling me to accept myself and love myself. “This is really disappointing, sad and not your style.”
Another said: “Why does a 31 year old insist on reducing wrinkles???? What wrinkles are frowning???? These beauty standards are just ridiculous.”
One user joked, “Remember when you complained about sugar-free yogurt… Mmkay,” referencing an incident in 2021 when Lovato criticized a small business on Instagram for promoting “disorderly eating” by selling sugar-free and diet foods.
Several comments also drew attention to Israel’s war in the Gaza Strip, writing “All eyes on Rafah,” adding to a trend of social media users condemning the Met Gala for diverting attention from the “genocide” that involved more than 34,000 Palestinians and 1,410 Israelis. was killed.
