LOS ANGELES: Pop singer Demi Lovato is hospitalized after a suspected drug overdose.
The Los Angeles Police Department reportedly responded on Tuesday to a medical emergency in the Hollywood Hills, where Lovato lives.
According to reports the 25-year-old was found unconscious and treated at the scene with Naloxone, an anti-overdose medicine.
The Sorry Not Sorry singer was in a stable condition, US media report.
She was alert and breathing at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.
Her spokesperson told the BBC: “Demi is awake and with her family who want to express thanks to everyone for the love, prayers, and support.
Lovato has struggled with substance abuse for years and was feared to have relapsed in recent weeks.
In a single released last month, Sober, she sings: “Mommy, I’m so sorry I’m not sober anymore. And daddy please forgive me for the drinks spilled on the floor.”
Celebrities have taken to Twitter to express their love and support for the former Disney star
