Demi Lovato is speaking out after fans voiced concerns over her behavior in a recent video.
The "Confident" singer shared a "Cooking with Demi" video to her TikTok this week to show followers how to roast a whole chicken. Wearing a black apron and with ingredients spread out on the counter, Lovato appeared apprehensive but determined as she explained the decision in an effort to help them all "[face] our fears."
"Today we are making a whole roasted chicken. It seems really overwhelming but it's not," she said, laughing as she admitted the sentiment was also meant for herself as much as for viewers. "We're gonna have fun, and I'm telling myself this because I feel overwhelmed."
However, fans noticed that the 32-year-old musician appeared to be shaking at various points of the video, like in close-up shots of her touching the raw chicken and removing the insides, per People.
"'It seems really overwhelming but it's not' *is literally shaking*" one commenter wrote, while another added, "I'm afraid of seeing her shaking that hard." Others even saw themselves in the process, with one viewer noting, "I have never watched a cooking show more relatable than this one 😂"
The nerves would make sense given she admitted to feeling "nervous" and in over her head at the start of the video, and she assured fans that everything was alright, replying to one fan, "I'm okay! I promise 🖤"
Lovato ultimately acknowledged in the caption that the recipe "wasn't nearly as overwhelming as I thought it would be" as she shared how "proud" she was to be able to add it to her repertoire.
