American songstress and actress, Demi Lovato, is now awake after multiple media reports that she was hospitalised from a suspected drug overdose.

According to Variety a family member of the Grammy-nominated and multi-platinum singer expressed appreciation to everyone who sent their heartfelt get well wishes to her adding that some of the information being reported is incorrect.

In a statement the family rep said.

“Demi is awake and with her family who want to express thanks to everyone for the love, prayers, and support.

“Some of the information being reported is incorrect and they respectfully ask for privacy and not speculation as her health and recovery is the most important thing right now.”

Also, a source close to Lovato denied heroin was the cause, which TMZ had initially reported.

According to law enforcement officials, the Los Angeles Police Department responded to a medical emergency at the 8000 block of Laurel View Drive in the Hollywood Hills, where Lovato’s home is located, before noon.

Law enforcement sources told TMZ, which was first to report the news, that Lovato, who was found unconscious, was treated with Narcan — a medication designed to rapidly reverse opioid overdose — at her home before being transported to a local hospital.

Meanwhile, some fans and colleagues of the 25-year-old celebrity have been sending heartfelt messages to support her after 6 years of apparent sobriety.

However, some Twitter users have condemned the widely publicised support directed at Lovato saying that if a regular person had “OD’D” there wouldn’t be this outpouring of sympathy.

One also said that people are partial about her plight because of her social status.

Demi has been quite open about her drug and alcohol addiction. On June 21st, the songstress released a single, Sober wherein she opened up about her addiction problems, hinting she might have broken her six years of sobriety.
