Demi Lovato & Emily Hampshire: A DM‑Mediated Love Story (or Not)
The 29‑year‑old pop star has turned up in the dating map of the Schitt’s Creek queen’s inbox, sparking a playful yet honest conversation about who’s who in the rom‑comm world. Below is a breezy rundown of what unfolded—and why the sparks didn’t ignite.
What the DMs Really Said
- Demi’s First Move: “I slid those DMs” – simple, direct.
- Emily’s Reply: “Hey, I like you on the show. We should kick it sometime.”
Bonus: “And by kick it, I mean go on a date. I find you attractive.” - Clarification: The DM was literally a “date” invitation. No mystery.
It’s the kind of clarity that drips with confidence—but Emily still decided to hit pause.
Why the Date Was a No‑Go
- Age Gap Check: Emily, 40, felt the 11‑year difference could be a huge hurdle.
- Common Ground Dilemma: “Could we really vibe?” was the real question.
- Cross‑Generational Dating? Some people might say “yikes”, others say “bring it on.”
Fun Sidebars
Demi mixed in a few celebrity analogies, calling the situation “think of Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor.” Emily, feeling like a Holland Taylor herself in that slot, laughed it off and said, “I’m proud to be the Holland Taylor in that context.” A perfect blend of humor and self‑deprecation.
From Skits to Friendship
- Friendship Wins: Even though no romance bloomed, they still keep it real.
- “I’m a dope friend”: The Punchline – Because sometimes a great bond can stem from a flirt flirt.
- Side Note: “A non‑binary person can dream… take a risk.”
In the end, the heartfelt note from Emily whispered, “Me too, I wish you weren’t 29!” Still a love‑note, but a stand‑by a year older.
So there you have it: a tidy DM story that kept the love potential alive, yet stayed grounded in friendship and fun. Love, or not, the vibe? 100% on point.
