Teen-sensation Demi Lovato has checked into rehab.
The Disney star was in the middle of touring with the Jonas Brothers in South America.
A representative for the 18-year-old Disney star said:
“Demi left her tour early in order to seek medical treatment for emotional and physical issues she has dealt with for some time. Demi has decided to take personal responsibility for her actions and seek help.
“Demi and her family ask that the media please respect their privacy during this difficult time. She regrets not being able to finish her tour, but is looking forward to getting back to work in the near future.”
Demi’s father Patrick, who has not spoken to his daughter for a while, has opened up to website RadarOnline, blaming the pressure of Hollywood for his daughter’s issues.
“There are a lot of pressures… That is one of the things I worried about when she signed with Disney. It’s just going to happen.”
“I’ve had cancer, I’ve been in the hospital for two months and I just got out. She hasn’t visited, she’s been too busy, she’s been way too busy.”
According to E! Online, Demi may have been finding it difficult to tour with her ex-boyfriend Joe Jonas, who is now rumoured to be dating Twilight star Ashley Greene.
She is also reportedly exhausted and stressed from not having a break between touring and promoting her movie Camp Rock 2.
