Demi Lovato can keep a secret …especially when it comes to the inspiration behind her song, “Cool For the Summer”.
During a recent interview with “The Howard Stern Show”, the 31-year-old singer opened up about her 2015 hit single, which sent the world buzzing with lyrics about kissing a woman.
The lyrics are up for interpretation, and Lovato won’t be sharing who exactly she’s singing about. However, she did give a hint.
When asked by Stern if it’s about a woman named “Susan,” Lovato laughed, and admitted, “No, it’s not Susan. Sometimes I write songs and just let them be.”
When pressed about if the song is about someone famous, Lovato revealed, “What if it is? Yeah.”
After Stern further prompted her to reveal who “Cool For the Summer” is about, Lovato said that it wouldn’t be right to share, as she herself is currently in a relationship.
“I’m in a relationship now and I feel like that would be inappropriate,” the “Confident” singer shared, referring to her romance with Jutes, who she’s been seeing since 2022. “I missed the moment. I should have said it back then.”
Still, Lovato knows people are going to continue guessing. “People are gonna wonder now,” she quipped.
Speaking about the timeframe of the single, Lovato revealed that it was released before she officially came out as bisexual. Following the success, she decided to come out to her parents, whom she said were very accepting and already knew.
“I actually released it before I came out as bisexual at the time,” she told Stern. “I just grew up in a Christian home and was kind of traumatized in that area and didn’t want to come out. When I came out, my dad was like ‘Yeah, you have a song called ‘Cool For The Summer’. Like, it’s obvious.'”
As for her mother’s reaction,
