Demi Lovato's way of handling their "sober lifestyle" has come in for criticism by Lala Kent.

Lala Kent called Demi Lovato’s "California sober" approach to addiction recovery "offensive" to both her and other people who have gotten sober.  The "Anyone" singer previously noted that their recovery from hard drugs has included drinking and smoking marijuana in moderation, an approach Lovato called "California sober." Speaking on the "Behind The Velvet Rope with David Yontef" podcast on Monday, Kent, who got sober in 2018, discussed the term and what it means to people in recovery.  "I don’t like to judge, but I actually think that that’s super offensive," the "Vanderpump Rules" star told the host.
