Lovato poses for the cover of Cosmopolitan‘s September 2015 issue. In the interview

There are a lot of girls in pop. They have badass lyrics, but I feel like I’m the only person other than Rihanna and Nicki Minaj who isn’t afraid to say, ‘Try something on me and I’ll f–king beat your ass.’ There are people who can dress up and play the part, but their music doesn’t say it.

On her boyfriend, Wilmer Valderrama:

The only times we ever broke up were when I was relapsing, whether it was drugs or in a bad place and rebelling against everybody, not just him… People say that relapses happen before you use. Your mind starts setting up the relapse before you take that drink or that first hit. The times we’d broken up, I had already gone to that place of, Yeah, this is what’s happening. I didn’t realize it at the time, but I just wanted to sabotage everything around me so that I could sabotage myself.

[You] can be the most beautiful woman in the world and see yourself as hideous. You must love yourself. To look in the mirror and tell yourself that you’re a rock star, you know?

I use to get frustrated that just because I wanted to sing, I was automatically expected to be a role model. But I had to grow up and realise that no matter what I do I’m going to be somebody’s role model. It’s true what they say- “with great power comes great responsibility”- and everybody’s career is different but for me, I had to grow up and embrace it rather than resent it, as that only made me resent my career.

I’m impulsive when it comes to fighting back, but I’ve learned to reel it in. Tweeting without thinking does more harm than good. So take a second. Journal what you want to say, and then if you still feel the same later, that’s when you can tweet it.

Seacrest interviews Lovato during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions her about the dream she had with Seacrest in it.

I wanted to make sure you were okay. I had this dream and first of all, we were football players on the same team and we were in the locker room and you were crying to me and you were asking for girl advice.

Seacrest interviews Lovato during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions her about collaborating with Ed Sheeran.

I’ve been a huge, huge fan of his. I love his music, I love his album, so I covered his song and he saw it. And then he got in contact, and we were like, ‘We should write together, we should do something together.’ And then we ended up playing the same show at the Hollywood Bowl, so were like we have to do the song together. I was really really exited and super honored to do that with him because he’s just so talented.

Seacrest interviews Lovato during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions her about how she feels close to home while on tour.

I always watch the ID channel, I’m obsessed with crime shows. But I’ll also make sure that I do things like go to the movies with my band or whoever and that kind of keeps me feeling like I’m at home.

Seacrest interviews Lovato during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions her for details about her Neon Lights Tour. 

I want my fans to experience a show that really showcases off all of the instruments that I can play. It’s kind of like what Beyoncé did with the music video for each song, but it’ll be playing on the background of the scenes during my show.

I look for someone who makes me laugh. Because 20, 30 years from now, sometimes the spark fades, but when you’re with someone who’s your best friend-that’s what makes a relationship last.

The show made me a tougher critic and better empathizer. I understand artists a lot more now. I get scared for them because we if they don’t make the right decisions right now or if they don’t have the right people around them, they could put their careers in danger. What they never show [on X-Factor] is me backstage crying with certain contestants. I had to walk off a couple of times too because it gets too emotional for me. They never showed that.

Finding out I had a real emotional disorder helped me put together the pieces of the puzzle. I remember being on my tour bus thinking, My life is so awesome right now, but I’m so depressed. Then, a few days later, I’d be on top of the world. It was really confusing. When I got diagnosed, my life made more sense.
