Demi Lovato Realizes ‘Life Is Too Short’ To Keep Hating Taylor Swift

On the long list of stan armies you never want to piss off,  Demi Lovato’s Lovatics and Taylor Swift’s Swifties rank right below the impressively vindictive BeyHive in their ability to ruin your life on the internet (and quite possibly IRL) in record time.  And for the last three years, the pop stars’ fandoms have been locked in endless Twitter skirmishes, as Swift and Lovato went from friends to outright adversaries, robbing us all of a potentially bop-worthy remix of their songs “Cool For The Summer” and “Cruel Summer.”  But now, Lovato has sent Swift a digital olive branch of sorts (as opposed to Katy Perry’s literal one) on Monday morning, conceding on Instagram that “Cruel Summer” is indeed a “jam” and calling for a pop music ceasefire.  “Life’s too short for women to not support other women.. especially when women release great music,” she wrote alongside some heart and hand-clapping emojis. “Great job.”  And Swift responded in kind, writing, “This is so awesome & put the biggest smile on my face. Thank you.”  While Swift and Lovato and have had an on-and-off friendship over the years, things veered into “Bad Blood”-esque territory when the former Disney Channel star called out Swift for remaining silent on social media during Kesha’s legal battle with Dr. Luke.  After Swift subsequently donated $250,000 to Kesha’s cause, Lovato appeared to criticize the decision to cover her legal costs, seemingly calling Swift’s feminist credibilities into question.  “Take something to Capitol Hill or actually speak out about something and then I’ll be impressed,” Lovato wrote on Twitter back in 2016.
