Demi Lovato slammed 2016 Met Gala as a 'terrible experience' 

“I had a terrible experience,” Demi told Billboard at the time. The singer added. “This one celebrity was a complete b***h and was miserable to be around. It was very cliquey. I remember being so uncomfortable that I wanted to drink.”

Demi went straight from the Gala to an AA meeting, and said, “I changed my clothes, but I still had my diamonds on millions of dollars of diamonds on in an AA meeting. And I related more to the homeless people in that meeting who struggled with the same struggles that I deal with than the people at the Met Gala—fake and sucking the fashion industry’s d***.”
