Demi Lovato has criticised pop star Taylor Swift, saying she and her friends "tore down" Katy Perry in her video for "Bad Blood".
Lovato has hit out at the "Shake It Off" singer and her squad, which includes Cara Delevingne, Ellie Goulding, Gigi Hadid and Karlie Kloss, for using "Bad Blood" to reference her feud with the 31-year-old beauty, reported Female First.
Talking about the video, Lovato said, "I think that having a song and a video about tearing Katy Perry down, that's not women's empowerment."
The brunette beauty also criticised the video for only using women with perfect bodies, which she says gives young fans the wrong impression of what they should look like.
"This will probably get me in trouble, but I don't see anybody in any sort of squad that has a normal body. It's kind of this false image of what people should look like.
