She encourages her fans to embrace their natural beauty and
last week even posted a photo of herself without a stitch of make-up.
So it was little surprise when Demi Lovato emerged smiling and fresh-faced on Wednesday, despite having to start work before the sun came up.
The 20-year-old singer was dressed down in black jeans, studded boots, a rock 'n' roll T-shirt and beanie as she made her way to ABC studios in Manhattan for a soundcheck.

it: Demi Lovato got an early start as she made her way to a soundcheck
at Good Morning America in New York City on Wednesday morning
Accompanied
by a pair of burly minders, Demi managed a wide grin for waiting
photographers ahead of her appearance on Good Morning America.
She covered up from the early morning chill in an Army green jacket and carried a black handbag and sunglasses with her - ready for the sunrise.
Demi performed her new hit single Heart Attack on the morning news programme, a day after she released a sultry music video for the single.
Dressed down: The 20-year-old wore black jeans, studded boots, a rock 'n' roll T-shirt and red beanie for a low-key look
Au naturel: Demi smiled for the cameras and proudly showed off her flawless complexion
Fans
may have noticed the star stumbling over the lyrics as she began the
track, but ever the pro Demi pushed on and delivered a passionate
performance.
The star gushed about her 'most incredible fans' and spoke about how she stays 'normal' despite her meteoric rise to fame.
Her answer is to make sure she leaves time in her schedule for herself.
'You schedule a lot of days off when you can... I also have great people around me... that'll tell me, "You're getting crabby, you need to chill,"' she laughed.

It's showtime! Demi was interviewed on the show after performing her latest pop song
Demi recently announced the upcoming release of her self-titled record, due May 14, which will be her fourth studio album.
The record release comes after a far more personal victory for the young singer, who has struggled with mental illness and substance abuse.
Demi successfully completed a stay at a rehab facility where she was receiving treatment in late January.
Since that time she is said to have decided to reside in a sober-living facility.

Casual lady: Demi looked in good spirits in her low key ensemble
In full bloom: Demi looks delighted to be offered a bouquet of flowers from an admirer outside the studios
She
often logs on to Twitter to offer her online followers encouragement,
and just last week captioned a make-up free snap with a motivational
message: 'Ladies, be brave today.. take off your make-up and stop using
those filters!! WE are beautiful!!!'
The Skyscraper singer showed off her impeccable complexion in the portrait, demonstrating she is clearly not dependent upon her make-up kit.
But the picture was intended to be a clarion call to her dedicated fans - who call themselves Lovatics - and not simply a showcase for her natural good looks.
Throughout the day Lovatics tweeted the singer snaps of themselves without any cosmetic enhancements.
Fresh-faced: Demi tweeted a make-up free snap last week, encouraging her fans to do the same
The former Barney & Friends actress responded with a delighted tweet: 'So many GORGEOUS faces.. Not enough battery left on my phone!!! Haha love you ALL!!!'
But the overwhelming response from her female fans did not go unnoticed by online bullies, who apparently gave some grief to a few of the Lovatics.
Demi advised her fans to not engage with the online detractors, saying: 'To all my Lovatics - if you come across haters, show them love.
'We don't bully back or retaliate. That's not what we are about!!'
Going dark: Demi released the music video for her new single Heart Attack this week
