Recently Demi Lavato shocked everyone by announcing that she was going to do a no makeup, no clothes photo shoot, in order to make a statement about body image. Most people were already aware that Demi struggled with an eating disorder not too long ago, so this photo-shoot was very inspiring. She is open and honest to the public about her struggles with not only with having an eating disorder, but dealing with bipolar disorder, drug addictions, and self harming. "I basically went from hating every single inch of my body, to working on myself and trying to figure out ways to love myself, love the skin that I’m in. After working very hard on my spirituality and my soul and my body, I learned that you can get to a place where you can love the skin you’re in,” Demi stated.

Demi's pictures from her nude/makeup-less photo shoot are going viral on the internet. The photos show her singing in the shower, sitting on a bathtub, and posing on a bed. When explaining her reasoning behind this photoshoot, she stated, "I thought there was something incredible about the idea of no makeup what so ever, no clothes, and no retouching."

Demi Lavato is using her past struggles and turning it into something positive by promoting girls to be comfortable with their body. She started to do #nomakeupmonday selfies on instagram to show people that you don't need makeup to be beautiful.

“I would have never thought that I would have ever gotten to a place in my life where I would have felt comfortable doing that,” Demi said to Vanity Fair in a behind the scenes video. “It’s empowering and it shows other women that you can get to a place where you can overcome the obstacles of body image issues. And you can feel comfortable and confident in yourself.”
