Demi Lovato got 12 tattoos as an adolescent. Now, at the age of 20, the ‘X Factor‘ judge is having some regrets about all of her ink.

“I’ve thought about it before because, you know, when I get older I don’t know if I want to have rock and roll on my middle finger. I’m young and I can rock it now and when I get older I can worry about it later.” Speaking of one inking, a tattoo of her friend’s lips on her wrist, she added: “It was just a spur of the moment, stupid decision.”

Demi also talked about her 2010 hospitalization. She said it was a relief to be diagnosed with bipolar disorder.

“I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, that means I’m not really crazy, there’s a reason.’ And it was just so awesome to be able to pinpoint a diagnosis for the reasons why I was extremely happy and in, like, a euphoric state, and the next month I was in, like, a deep depression. I had everything great in my life I had nothing to complain about but I wasn’t happy.”

I can understand that! Demi even talked about the incident that led to her hospitalization: she got into a fight with one of her backup dancers while on tour.

“I got into a situation in a different country when I actually ended up hitting one of my friends. I was just going through something so dark and I was very, very mentally sick. So, you know, when I ended after leaving the tour my parents had planned an intervention.”

Demi must be doing better to be a judge on ‘X Factor’! It’s great to see her doing well.
