Lovato OD was meth: reports

- Brian Niemietz

Demi Lovato is awake and responsive, but the reason for the “Sober” singer’s Tuesday morning collapse, which brought emergency responders to her Los Angeles home, remains a mystery.

TMZ initially cited sources speculatin­g the singer had been treated with Narcan following a possible heroin overdose. Multiple reports, including a follow-up from TMZ, now claim that heroin wasn’t the reason for the 25-year-old’s loss of conscience. Narcan is typically used to combat opioid overdoses.

TheBlast.com reported Wednesday that “a nurse at the hospital told police Lovato was using some type of methamphet­amine in the time leading up to the incident.”

Her reps release a statement on Tuesday assuring fans she was on the mend.
