Demi Lovato Checks Out of Rehab and Out of 'Sonny with a Chance'

Sonny with no chance of Demi returning...

After three months of in-patient treatment for an eating disorder and issues with self-harm, Disney princess Demi Lovato says farewell to her hit show, "Sonny With A Chance."

The singer/actress confirmed to People magazine in this week's issue, "I don't think going back to Sonny would be healthy for my recovery. Being in front of the camera would make me nervous."

When Lovato made the decision to seek help last fall she was in the midst of a national concert tour with the Jonas Brothers. It sounds like she is more comfortable behind the mic than in front of the camera these days.

"It made sense for me to go ahead and leave the show to focus on my music. It's kind of sad for me that a chapter of my life has ended but there couldn't be a better time for me to move on," Lovato said.

The 18-year-old was spotted leaving a recording studio recently which tells us she is already back to work, exercising those vocal chords.

As for the show, Disney announced earlier this year that "Sonny" will return in June as a sketch comedy newly titled "So Random!"

A rep for Disney told People magazine “We respect Demi’s decision to focus fulltime on her music and not immediately return to her acting career. She is a talented young woman and our hearts are with her as she continues to take action to improve her health and bounce back from adversity.”

There has been a massive outpouring of support for the young star who so bravely and publicly confronted her demons. Certainly we wish her continued recovery and success!
