YOUTUBE ORIGINALS REVEALS HIGHLY-ANTICIPATED PREMIERE DATE FOR NEW DOCUSERIES "DEMI LOVATO: DANCING WITH THE DEVIL"

RAW LOOK AT LOVATO'S RESILIENT JOURNEY LAUNCHES MARCH 23

LOS ANGELES, CA, JANUARY 13, 2020 -- YouTube Originals today announced the first details for "Demi Lovato: Dancing with the Devil," a powerful four-part documentary event from Director Michael D. Ratner. The first two episodes of the docuseries will premiere for free Tuesday, March 23rd only on Demi Lovato's YouTube Channel, with new episodes to be released weekly on each of the next two Tuesdays.

"It's been two years since I came face-to-face with the darkest point in my life, and now I'm ready to share my story with the world. For the first time, you'll be able to see my chronicle of struggle and ongoing healing from my point of view. I'm grateful that I was able to take this journey to face my past head-on and finally share it with the world," said Demi Lovato.

"We are excited to continue sharing Demi's brave story," said Susanne Daniels, Global Head of Original Content, YouTube. "YouTube Originals is committed to telling real stories about the complexities of life and for Demi to use our global platform to open up about this chapter is something we are very proud of."

"Demi Lovato: Dancing with the Devil" is an honest look back at some of the most trying times in Lovato's life as she unearths her prior traumas and discovers the importance of her physical, emotional, and mental health. For the first time, Lovato will open up about every aspect that led to her nearly fatal overdose in 2018, and her awakenings in the aftermath as viewers are granted unprecedented access to the superstar's personal and musical journey over the past three years, including footage from when the initial production for this project began during Lovato's 2018 Tell Me You Love Me World Tour. The docuseries is a follow up to her wildly popular 2017 YouTube Originals documentary "Simply Complicated," which now has more than 35M views on YouTube.

"Demi's willingness to explore the darkest elements of her life is going to leave the audience with a complete understanding of everything she's been through and ultimately where she is going. Demi stands for empowerment, and this documentary is going to answer the many questions that have been out there - providing a real window into the life of one of the biggest stars in the world, who is simply a human being," says Director and Executive Producer Michael D. Ratner.
