The #DEMIVERSARY celebration has featured a host of new content. VEVO debuted video footage from Demi’s Neon Lights Tour. Spotify offered a worldwide stream of five songs recorded in London last year and a video previously available only on Demi’s iBook for her poignant ballad “In Case,” which went live on VEVO. VEVO also debuted the lyric video for Demi’s sassy, up-tempo new single, “Really Don’t Care,” that has already amassed nearly 4 million views.
In support of the #DEMIVERSARY and her new single, “Really Don’t Care,” Demi will be performing on Good Morning America on June 6th and appearing on Late Night with Seth Meyers on June 4th.
