Demi Lovato No Longer Speaking With Selena Gomez: Not Because Of Justin Bieber

Demi Lovato is opening up about her friendship split from former BFF Selena Gomez. The pair is no longer speaking, but not for the reason fans might think.

Demi appears (topless with an inflatable banana!) on the cover of Complex magazine’s October/November 2015 issue and inside, she spoke about her former friend.

When asked if she and the “Good For You” singer were in contact, Demi replied simply with, “Nope.”

The mag pressed, asking, “Does it have anything to do with a particular relationship choice of hers?” referring to Justin Bieber.

“Not really. Not anymore,” she explained. “He’s actually a nice guy. I don’t really know him that well, but he seems to have grown up. He looks like he’s maturing. But, you know, when you’re young and you get older, you change and people change. You have things in common, and then all of a sudden, you don’t. It’s just a part of life.”

Despite growing up among many famous faces and dating Wilmer Valderrama, Demi told the mag that she’s doesn’t usually hang with a famous squad.

“I don’t really hang out with celebrities. I guess I do sometimes. I like Hailee Steinfeld. And Nick [Jonas]. But I don’t count Nick and Joe [Jonas] as celebrities. I’ve grown up with them. I’m not the type of person that’s on Instagram posting pictures of me and tons of my best friends. I have my core group, and they’re the type of people that will be there for me in the middle of the night,” she said. “They’re the type of people that are like, ‘You’re being a bitch right now. Don’t talk to me that way,’ and I’m like, ‘Whoa. Sorry. I didn’t realize it.’ I don’t have anybody around me who kisses my ass.”
