Demi Lovato 'Shocked' By Cheryl Cole Praise

Demi Lovato has admitted that she was surprised to receive a tweet from Cheryl Cole last month, after the Girls Aloud star sat down to watch her moving documentary Stay Strong.

Cheryl wrote: "@ddlovato I have just watched your Stay Strong doc and felt compelled to say I think you're so Strong, Brave and Beautiful inside and out. (sic)"

Speaking to MTV, Demi said: "I thought that was so sweet, I was so shocked that she knew who I was so that was really cool.

"She is really, really sweet and she really didnt have to say what she said over Twitter, so it was really sweet. I hope I get to meet her someday."

As the 'Skyscraper' star heads for her first hit album in the UK with Unbroken, she said she thinks Chezza can do the same in the US.

"I totally think that she can," she said. "I mean shes gorgeous and shes got a great voice and Im completely jealous of her body. I think America likes to embrace a lot of UK artists such as Adele, Amy Winehouse and Corinne Bailey Rae.

"Also One Direction and The Wanted, so theyre really embracing a lot of British artists so I think that shes gonna have no problem breaking it."

Demi has recently been linked to 1D star Niall Horan, earning the blessing of the boyband star's mother. Aww...
