Demi Lovato gave her fans a cheeky view of her 34th birthday celebrations in the Bahamas.
The “Cool for the Summer” singer marked her special day on August 20 but shared a carousel of photos from the trip on Monday.
Demi appeared to spend most of her time at the beach and looked incredible in a tiny red string bikini.
One eye-catching photo featured a close-up of Demi’s sand-covered derrière while she gazed out over the crystal-clear water.
Another image showed the birthday girl standing in the water with her arms stretched above her head, showcasing her tiny waist and toned stomach after she lost a reported 50lbs in the past four years.
Several other photos showed Demi rocking a variety of swimwear, including a black-and-white two-piece and a tropical print bathing suit.
“Someone’s gotta hold it down in the Bahamas,” she captioned the post, which was met with praise by her followers who labeled her “beautiful” and “gorgeous.”

He did give her a shout-out on social media last Thursday, however, writing: “‘Happy birthday to the hottest, funniest, sweetest, most talented human alive… not to mention the best dog momma to ever do it.

Inside Demi’s weight loss
Demi has sparked speculation that she may have turned to Ozempic to aid her weight loss journey, but she has not commented on the rumors.
In March 2021, she said on Instagram that she “accidentally lost weight,” and doesn’t “count calories,” “over exercise,” or “restrict or purge” as she continues to recover from bulimia, adding: “And I especially don’t live my life according to the diet culture.”

“I have a treatment team that I work with that helps me stay in recovery, and I’ve been in recovery from bulimia for about five, going on six, years now,” she told Penn Badgley during an appearance on his podcast Podcrushed.
“I’m trying to learn body acceptance rather than body positivity, because body positivity feels like I can’t even reach that yet. I have to work on body acceptance, body neutrality because that feels like a goal I can reach.”

“And I just work with them. We come up with tools… we do sessions on body image, and they provide me with a ton of insight.

“But like, ‘This body saved my life and fought for my life when I overdosed.’ ‘This body is a miracle,'” she added. “That’s what I have to focus on, because loving my body and having full acceptance over it… it feels too far away right now.”
