Singer-songwriter Demi Lovato has announced they identify as non-binary and is changing their pronouns to they/them. In a video, Demi went on to explain the reason behind the changed pronouns.
The post on Twitter read, "Every day we wake up, we are given another opportunity & chance to be who we want & wish to be. I’ve spent the majority of my life growing in front of all of you… you’ve seen the good, the bad, & everything in between."
Not only has my life been a journey for myself, I was also living for those on the other side of the cameras.

Demi further explained, "Not only has my life been a journey for myself, I was also living for those on the other side of the cameras. Today is a day I'm so happy to share more of my life with you all- I am proud to let you know that I identify as non-binary & will officially be changing my pronouns to they/them moving forward."
"This has come after a lot of healing & self-reflective work. I’m still learning & coming into myself, & I don’t claim to be an expert or a spokesperson. Sharing this with you now opens another level of vulnerability for me," Demi further noted. "I’m doing this for those out there that haven’t been able to share who they truly are with their loved ones. Please keep living in your truths & know I am sending so much love your way xox."

In the video package, they revealed that they are announcing this because of all the self-reflective work they have done over the past year. "I feel [the change to they/them pronouns] best represents the fluidity I feel in my gender expression, and allows me to feel most authentic and true to the person I both know I am, and still am discovering," Demi said.
