Stars, theyā€™re just like us! Granted, most of us donā€™t host the E! Peopleā€™s Choice Awards, but letā€™s put aside those small differences for a second. During her opening monologue at this yearā€™s awards, pop singer-songwriter Demi Lovato joked about how she spent her year in quarantine. ā€œI am so excited to be here tonight because, honestly, this year has been the longest three years of my life,ā€ Lovato told a virtual audience. She recounted performing at the Grammys and singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl at the beginning of the year ā€” events that do feel like they were three years ago, according to our calculations. When the pandemic began, she continued, ā€œI did what everyone else did: I went into lockdown mode andĀ got engaged. I got into painting, photography, meditation. Tested the limits of Postmates Unlimited. I also didnā€™t know this could happen, but I reached the end of Instagram four times. I binged seven seasons ofĀ Pretty Little Liars, got unengaged, and then I went looking for aliens in the desert. So basically the same as everyone else.ā€ And, sure, maybe you couldnā€™t afford Postmates Unlimited or didnā€™t go alien-hunting, but that sounds pretty much the same otherwise, right?
