Demi Lovato: Role Model
I have gotten backlash from some family for saying that Demi Lovato is my role model. One reason which is uncalled for is because we aren't the same race. Second reason is because she was 19 when she went into rehab.
I'm here setting the record straight.
Yes Demi did go to rehab but she accomplished her dreams faster then I can. I did have the resources because of where I grew up. Growing up I lived and still do live in the middle of no where. What's to say that I was in a place that had beauty pageants where you didn't have to travel 50 minuets just to get to the place. Now that I am older I understand how much money my mom didn't have to take me to certain places and her taking a day off of work was here hiding that she wasn't going to eat dinner sometime that week.
Maybe I am over exaggerating but it feels that big.
Being influenced but educational adults I didn't think that life was achievable. Even with my dad he never encouraged a different live other than college.
When you answer the question: What do you want to be when you grow up?
What do/did you say. Something "rational".
Demi and I don't have the same story but she was in the life that I am hoping to live one day. But she is the best role model for me because she gives me hope. I have three reasons.
1) Freaking Disney!! Come on she is so funny and goofy. She made me feel as if I could be my-self. Or she gave the message that to be girly doesn't mean always being a princess. You can play different roles in life when ever you choose.
2) She can tell her truth. I have a hard time telling people my emotions with out breaking down in spongebob tears. I shocks not only how she can come out and say I messed up but still talk about mental heath. Serious guys I didn't know about mental health(meaning that people actually deal with anxiety and depression) until the 8th grade so I was 13. And this is when she shaved her head and had colors in her hair. But she opened when she spoke about that and spoke about her getting the help that she needs. It made me feel that it was okay to tell when I was hurting and it's okay to not be this happy or perfect kid that your family wants.
3) She stands up for what she believes in. Look. This is just the most recent thing though(bottom). She took control over her life, and I know that it's okay to take control of my life and speak about it. If you have ever been told that someone or music, anything, let me know in the comments.
