Twitter users hijack #AskDemi, ask about Poot Lovato

It’s surprising how long it’s taken anyone to learn that when it comes to the Internet, nothing is ever taken seriously. Nothing. Especially when that something is Demi Lovato trying to engage with Twitter using the hashtag #AskDemi.

Twitter trolls quickly took over the hashtag to ask deep and provocative questions about Lovato’s twin sister, Poot Lovato, who only exists on the Internet. Lovato is of course ignoring all these highly important questions.

How could you have done this to poot, she is a human too!!! #AskDemi pic.twitter.com/7k8MXWbXr3

Poot first came to the public’s attention in October after a truly unflattering photo of Lovato found its way to the Internet. The image inspired fake stories about how Lovato had a twin sister that she kept locked up in a basement.

Lovato is not a fan of this meme and would like it to end.

Clearly, the Internet and thus the world is never going to let it go.
