Demi leaves hospital and enters rehab after OD

DEMI Lovato has been discharged from hospital — and then she checked into rehab.

It comes almost two weeks after the singer suffered a near-fatal drug overdose.

The 25-year-old left Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in LA on Saturday, TMZ reported.

She then took a private plane to one of America’s leading addiction facilities, which is outside California. It is unknown how long she will stay there, but is expected to remain under care for at least 30 days.

Meanwhile, her management team are now focusing on eliminating the toxic friends in the star’s life, and ensuring she is only surrounded by positive influences.

Sources close to Demi have told the site that Demi’s team held a meeting last week to discuss ‘separating her from toxic people in her life once she gets out of rehab’.

‘I want to thank God for keeping me alive and well. To my fans, I am forever grateful for all of your love and support throughout this past week and beyond. Your positive thoughts and prayers have helped me navigate through this difficult time.’

Demi, pictured, also thanked her family and staff at Cedars-Sinai who stayed by her side ‘the entire time’.

‘Without them I wouldn’t be here writing this letter to all of you.’

The Confident hitmaker finished the note writing that she plans to focus on recovering now and is looking ahead.

‘I want to thank God for keeping me alive and well. To my fans, I am forever grateful for all of your love and support throughout this past week and beyond. Your positive thoughts and prayers have helped me navigate through this difficult time.’
