Fans are now blaming the backup dancer and choreographer, Dani Vitale, for the overdose.
Video of Demi Lovato shot just hours before her overdose last week has surfaced.
The troubled pop star stands quietly in the background during a birthday party for her choreographer and backup dancer, Dani Vitale.
The celebration took place at Saddle Ranch Restaurant in West Hollywood and the singer "was laughing and smiling during the party," according to reports.
Lovato then headed to her home in the Hollywood Hills, where she was found unconscious the next morning.
Nearly a week after the party, some of her fans are placing blame on Vitale, 28, but the dancer is hitting back.
"I was not with Demi when the incident happened, but I am with her now, and will continue to be because she means the world to me just as she does to all of you," Vitale said in a statement.
Lovato’s mom, Dianna De La Garza, is also by the pop star's side. A source told People magazine that she felt powerless to witness her daughter's downward spiral after years of sobriety.
The "Skyscraper" singer is reportedly still hospitalized at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, according to TMZ. She has had "complications" related to her overdose.
Lovato will be soon be heading to the women-only Timberline Knolls Treatment Center in Illinois, according to reports. Lovato should not expect special treatment as the 43-acre facility has very basic accommodations. Lovato was also treated there back in 2010.
