The two had a very candid video chat.
“I love how open you are about mental health,” Clarkson told her guest during a virtual segment of. “I have similar issues and I suffer from depression. I think a lot of people, especially in the creative world, or just from childhood, you’ve been kind of trained to, like, just keep going and you can handle it. Especially as a woman, it’s like, ‘Don’t let ’em see you sweat.’”
“Not everyone is as vulnerable…like that,” Clarkson continued. “I think it's helpful for your fans…. Knowing that somebody else is going through makes you not feel alone and so depressed about it.” Lovato went on to credit Clarkson for inspiring her throughout the years. “You were, like, the first idol that I ever had," Lovato, 27, told the 38-year-old singer and talk show host. “I wouldn’t be the artist—or even the person that I am, with being so outspoken and vulnerable and fearless—if I hadn’t had you to look up to, so I thank you for that.”
“You are fearless and courageous and real as fuck, you know?” Lovato continued. "When I was younger, I always thought to myself, If I ever make it, I want to be like her because she’s real and she’s genuine.”“That’s a daily effort,” thelegend added. “That’s not like a given, like you’re over it and you went to some magical therapy session and it’s over. I think that’s a daily thing that you work at and a daily thing that I work at.
