Demi Lovato is not typically one to stir up controversy.
The young singer is generally considered a very positive role model, from her promotion of No Makeup Mondays to her willingness to discuss her past battles with drugs, alcohol and an eating disorder.
But Demi Lovato is not perfect.
And many critics have taken aim at the artist in regard to a photo she shared on Instagram and Facebook this week.
Featured above, it depicts Demi cuddling with her dog, Batman, while also wearing what appears to be a fur coat.
The image is a behind-the-scenes snapshot from her Demi’s Allure magazine cover shoot from last month, during which Lovato talked about her newfound body confidence.
But all anyone wanted to talk about after seeing the photo above was the dead animal wrapped around Demi’s body.
“If that is fur, i am unfollowing the page!” one user wrote, while also added in annoyance:
“See I used to love Demi buuuut seeing her in fur? I’m disgusted.”
Others, meanwhile, called out Lovato’s alleged hypocrisy over sweetly holding one creature… while basking in the comfort of another’s former skin.
Lovato is yet to respond to these harsh critiques, but you can do so below:
Do you think she’s being a hypocrite? Should she come out and apologize for the fur coat? Or is this much ado about basically nothing?
