Demi Lovato DEFENDS Singing "Heart Attack" at Cardiovascular Disease Event
Demi Lovato is standing her ground.
Two days after the singer sang "Heart Attack" at the American Heart Association's Go Red for Women Red Dress Collection Concert, an annual charity event to raise awareness for cardiovascular disease, Demi's rep issued a statement defending the performance.
"She spoke on the mind-heart connection," the spokesperson told Entertainment Weekly. "It was a sensitive moment intended to champion the women in the room—the very reason why Demi was at the event."
The rep added, "It was actually a beautiful moment."
