TOO LATE DEMI!
SCREENSHOTS ARE FOREVER! #21Savage #ICE #SuperBowl #DemiLovato pic.twitter.com/swLHNIp2Ao— MuellerAtYourDoor (@KeirJ4A) February 4, 2019
Among those who criticized Lovato for the tweet included Alex Tumay, Wale, and even 21 Savage’s manager Kei Henderson.
“Damn. We was def Demi Lovato fans,” Henderson wrote. “When she was going through her shit, I remember being on the tour bus and Savage said I hope she make it through that shit. People r weird bro.”

Just like I didn’t think the memes about Demi’s drug addiction were funny — I don’t think the memes about Savage are funny. Both are very serious issues.

Why is somebody freedom funny … I don’t get the joke https://t.co/Eyf4clympS

Lovato soon deleted her original post and took to Instagram to defend her actions, saying that she was directly referring to a picture that depicted 21 Savage writing his raps with a feather pen. “Sorry if I offended anyone,” she said, before addressing the retaliatory drug abuse jokes that social media users made at her expense. “But it’s no excuse to laugh at someone’s addiction.”
Lovato has since deactivated her Twitter account.
