Actress and singer Demi Lovato is firing back at rumors that she has been cloned. In recent years, singers like Britney Spears, Selena Gomez, and even actors like Jim Carrey have all been subjects of conspiracy theories that they have been replaced with clones. When Lovato decided to call out one TikTok video, however, the fan seemed to double down that her comment was actually “confirmation” that her theory was true, igniting concern online.
3Fans have come up with some crazy conspiracy theories about Lovato over the years, but the singer often doesn’t address them directly. However, she seemed to take issue with one video in particular, where a user named alexserves on TikTok alleged that Lovato’s weight was key to proving she was replaced by a clone, among other claims.
“girl go outside and leave my weight out of the equation,” Lovato wrote in a screenshot shared by the FauxMoi Reddit account.
The user replied: “that was just one little snippet to bring attention to the different versions of you that are out there but the fact that it’s the only thing you focused on Confirms [sic] everything else! Thank you!”
Lovato’s Sister Also Weighs In On The Controversy
Another user shared a screenshot of Lovato’s sister Dallas commenting on another video by the same user. “Cute how this creator deleted my comment.. AS I WAS SAYING, there is no mind control, body swapping, clone, Illuminati, Reptilian BULLSH-T going on,” she wrote. “This is an artist who is LOCKED IN.”
She continued, “She was giving the energy of the song and anyone that’s ever been an artist or a performer knows that. If you wanna sit in delulu land and make videos speculating and scrutinizing people for fun have at it. But don’t come for my sister.”
The user who made the video replied to the comment, writing, “Yes I deleted your comment [because] I thought you were a fan. I didn’t know you were her sister but since you’re back… I think it’s insane that you are acting like this doesn’t happen in Hollywood. This is known knowledge and for you to act like I’m the crazy one… after the E Files were released and after EVERYTHING your sister has been through is insane!!! I would be embarrassed if you were my sister. Now run along.”
However, Dallas was not going to let her get the last word. She responded: “This sounds less like a conspiracy and more like a conversation to have with a mental health professional. Wishing you the best.”
Demi Lovato Fans Come To The Singer’s Defense
3Many fans were quick to defend Demi – and her weight – in the comments. “I feel bad what celebrities go through on a daily basis,” one user wrote. “Yes, they’re in the spotlight but for years the amount of people that genuinely get shocked when a celebrity gains or loses weight is ridiculous. They’re human just like anyone else.”
Another user replied, “My weight always fluctuates and it’s impossible not to [because] of health reasons. I couldn’t imagine struggling or simply f-cking existing with millions/billions of eyes on me for likely the rest of my life.”
“Or heaven forbid, a child actor dares to grow into an adult,” a third user pointed out. “It’s crazy how much people compare them at 15 to 18 to 24 and then use it as proof for surgeries or eating disorders.”
Other Celebrities Have Been Pulled Into The Clone Debate
3One user asked, “When and where did this clone nonsense start and how can anyone believe it?”
A few users suggested that it likely began with a theory that Avril Lavigne was replaced with a clone following the success of her first album. “First I remember is Avril Lavigne and Dave Chappelle. It’s used to be YouTube conspiracy bs for kids but I guess they all grew up to have social media accounts now,” one user wrote.
“Worst one is for Selena Gomez. People who talk about it are just crazy,” another follower wrote, while a third fan brought in the theory that Paul McCartney was replaced with a clone at the height of The Beatles’ fame.
Although many celebrities don’t usually address the theory that they were cloned, Britney Spears’ son Jayden addressed the rumors in a video released earlier this month, claiming that people are “gullible” and the media uses that “to their advantage.”
