Demi Lovato Revisits The Bigg Chill Four Years After Slamming Yogurt Shop for ‘Triggering’ Calorie Displays

Any frosty feelings Demi Lovato may have had toward The Bigg Chill have melted, as the pop star recently revisited the Los Angeles frozen yogurt store four years after she put it on blast for allegedly perpetuating “toxic” diet culture.

In a hilarious TikTok posted Wednesday (July 30), Lovato stands inside the dessert shop and lip-syncs to a snippet of their past self saying, “I left that yogurt store and didn’t get the yogurt that I wanted.”

The video then cuts to the musician enjoying a cup of froyo topped with sprinkles while dancing around the store. “love you bigg chill,” she wrote in the caption.

Lovato’s casual dessert run marks a momentous occasion. In 2021, the Camp Rock alum beefed with the owners of that same frozen yogurt shop after accusing The Bigg Chill of participating in “a society that not only enables but praises disordered eating” in a post on Instagram Stories.

Shortly prior, Lovato — who has been open about struggling with eating disorders and body image in the past — had encountered items that displayed their calorie counts on the packaging in the shop, something the star called “harmful” while writing, “Do better.”

Shortly afterward, the business’ owners responded by stating, “We are not diet vultures,” noting that the calorie information was intended to help customers with dietary restrictions such as Celiac disease. “We are sorry you found this offensive,” they wrote to Lovato.

After some more back and forth — during which Lovato again slammed the store for being “triggering and awful” — the vocalist issued an apology video, a snippet of which they mouthed along to in the new full-circle TikTok. “I am very outspoken about the things that I believe in,” she said at the time. “I understand that sometimes my messaging can lose its meaning when I get emotional. I am human … I walked into a situation that didn’t sit right with me, my intuition said, ‘Speak up about this,’ so I did.”

It’s not the first time Lovato has poked fun at themself over the yogurt debacle. In March, the musician posted a video in which she asked ChatGPT to “roast” her, and laughed along gas the AI system responded: “Demi Lovato has had more rebrands than a failing fast-food chain. One minute they’re punk rock, the next, they’re singing pop ballads, and somewhere in between they’re beefing with a frozen yogurt store.”

Lovato’s latest trip to The Big Chill comes just a couple of days ahead of the singer’s highly anticipated return to pop music. After spending the last few years fully immersed in the rock genre, Lovato will release a distinctly EDM-inspired track titled “Fast” on Friday (Aug. 1).
