Demi Lovato has adorably shown that they’re just like all of us when it comes to crushing on someone and shooting their shot.
The 29-year-old star revealed that they tried to ask out an award-winning actress by sliding into her DMs! They shared the story on the latest episode of their podcast 4D With Demi Lovato, where they had Schitt’s Creek actress Emily Hampshire on as a guest. During the podcast, they said that they actually tried to ask out Emily by DM-ing her.
Demi admitted:
“I did, I slid in those DMs.”
Emily went on to talk about what happened, saying:
“You slid in my DMs and you said, ‘Hey, I like you on the show. We should kick it sometime. And then you said, below it, ‘And by kick it I mean go on a date. I find you attractive.’”
She went on to hilariously tell Demi:
You made it clear it was a date. And I loved that because sometimes that’s confusing. I’m decades older than you, so ‘kick it,’ I was looking it up.”
Emily continued by revealing that Demi also mentioned a hot Hollywood couple as they made their move:
“You also said, ‘Think of Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor.’ And then right after you were like, ‘I don’t mean you’re the Holland Taylor!’ I thought it was the funniest thing int he whole world because I was a Holland Taylor in that situation. Proud to be!”
Sarah and Holland have a 30 year age gap between them, while Emily is about over a decade older than Demi.
Demi admitted that the comparison was not their “smoothest move”:
“I think at that point I was sending you voice notes being like, ‘No! That’s not what I meant. I’m so sorry!”
They went on to sweetly talk about how all that led to a great friendship:
“A non-binary person can dream. And they, she — I was a ‘she’ at the time – she was dreaming big. I was like, ‘What’s the worst that could happen?’ And I made a really good friend. You’re a dope friend, and I’m happy we became friends.”
To this, Emily cutely replied:
“Me too. I wish you weren’t 29!”
’Twas the beginning of a beautiful friendship, as they say!
