Kabilang sina Kris Aquino at Bela Padilla sa local celebrities na nag-react via social media hinggil sa balitang naospital ang American singer na si Demi Lovato dahil sa diumano’y drug overdose.
Sa isang Instagram post ni Kris, isang netizen ang nagtanong tungkol sa pagkakaospital ni Demi.
Ayon sa netizen, alam niyang si Kris ay isang Lovatic, tawag sa fans ng American singer.
Direktang tanong ng netizen kay Kris, "I know you're a Lovatic. Why do you idolize a drug addict?"
Sagot ni Kris, "Because i am a believer in a forgiving God- the One Who gave His Only Begotten Son to save us from eternal damnation & she is now in my prayers."
Binanggit din ni Kris ang tungkol sa tweet ng kilalang American TV host na si Ellen DeGeneres na nagpahayag ng kanyang pagmamahal at pakikisimpatiya kay Demi.
I love @DDLovato so much. It breaks my heart that she is going through this. She is a light in this world, and I am sending my love to her and her family.

Ayon sa mga naglabasang ulat, na-overdose si Demi sa paggamit ng heroin, matapos ang anim na taong sobriety.
Bukod sa substance abuse, ilan pa sa mga pinagdaanan ni Demi ay eating disorder, depression, at self-inflicted harm.
Si Bela ay isa sa local celebrities na vocal pagdating sa mental health awareness at binanggit niyang ito ay isang seryosong isyu.
Tweet ng 27-anyos na aktres tungkol sa droga, “I’m happy I grew up in an environment where I was brought up condemning drugs.
“At my age I’m proud to say I’ve never tried or experimented with it in my life.”
Panawagan pa niya, “If we have friends or family going through depression, let’s reach out to them so they don’t need to look elsewhere.”

I hope you eventually hear about what Tito Boy has started tonight and realize that you arent alone. And that there are people who are actively looking for ways to help out. And that even if were tired, even if we have jobs and families, we will listen :)
Im very fortunate and honored that Tito Boy invited me to be one of his speakers tonight regarding mental health...and i learned sooo much from the other speakers as well. From Jasmine, Nykko, Queenie and Kylie ?? and i hope we can do this more.
