The “Skyscraper” songstress noted that the deceased “Glee” star was a victim to his addiction and had no control over his own overdose.
Demi began, "All it takes is one moment of vulnerability to get slipped into your addiction. He didn't choose to die. It was the disease.”
“It can creep up on you at any moment. It only takes one moment of relapse to potentially die. It's really scary, but I'm really hoping that from this, people are able to see this is a very, very, very dangerous disease."
Miss Lovato also noted that she’s heartbroken for Monteith’s girlfriend Lea Michele- "The main person in my thoughts is Lea. I am praying for her so hard and I love her so much. I'm wishing her a lot of strength right now."
