Demi Lovato's struggles as a teenager with bulimia and cutting are well documented. But her anguish goes back a lot further than that. Lovato landed her first gig at age 7, singing the theme song on Barney & Friends. Things may have looked perfect to an outsider, but they were far from it. "At the time, I was just so grateful to be on TV, but I was also really struggling," Lovato, now 20, tells the August issue of Cosmopolitan, on newsstands July 9.
