Demi Lovato's "I Love Me" Music Video Is Filled With Ghosts From Her Past, and It's Amazing

Lovato battles her hating half with some serious combat skills that are likely due to the singer's badass Brazilian jiujitsu skills. The singer has said before that she feels at her sexiest when she's showing her strength, and this moment is a testimony to the fact!

Although Dianna and Dallas don't make appearances in the video, the woman and her two young children represent the trio, who remain close to this day.

As Lovato walks along the sidewalk, she passes a team of bodyguards surrounding a woman dressed similarly to Lovato during her Confident album era back in 2015.

Who wouldn't recognise the iconic outfits of Mitchie Torres and the Connect 3 trio from Disney's Camp Rock films? Not only was the role basically Lovato's big break, but it also introduced her to the Jonas Brothers.

When Lovato passes by the trio of well-dressed brothers, there's no mistaking their similarity to the Jonas Brothers. Their outfits are almost identical to the brothers' looks at the 2020 Grammys. Lovato has a long and complicated history with the Jonas brothers — having dated Joe and been close friends and business partners with Nick — but it seems like she's letting go of any hard feelings. The singer smiles as the boys pass her by, seemingly at peace letting them go on without her.

In a particularly heartbreaking moment, Lovato passes by as someone is being taken into a waiting ambulance on a gurney, referencing the singer's nearly fatal drug overdose in 2018. Lovato briefly lays her hand on the person as they're wheeled away before continuing with her journey, as she has in real life.

In one of the final moments of the video, a newly married couple passes by Lovato and she looks after them wistfully for a brief second before smiling as she walks toward a group of friends awaiting her. The couple seems to allude to the singer's ex, Wilmer Valderrama, and his engagement to model Amanda Pacheco. The two remained close after their breakup, with Valderrama visiting Lovato in the hospital after her overdose, and it seems like Lovato is sending the message that she's OK with his upcoming nuptials. After all, she has self-love to focus on right now.
