The public have reacted saying Demi's attack on this small business was "stupid". She has since apologized saying she didn't mean to harm a small business but she was treated for bulimia at the age of 18 and that's what triggered her outburst.
In an 8 and a half minute video, Demi explains "When I messaged this fro-yo place, I wanted to make a point and call out behaviours that don't sit right with me. After seeing so much diet stuff in the shop, I jumped to conclusions and probably shouldn't have gone about this the way I did. I'm willing to talk to them and work with them on getting the message right. I'm standing up for anyone who struggles. I'm not coming after a small business as someone with a lot of followers"
