Former Disney starlet Demi Lovato has revealed that she doesn't understand the obsession with fame and the confusion surrounding wanting to be famous and wanting to be a successful artist.

During a new interview with Britain's The Guardian newspaper, the 'Heart Attack' beauty explained that people are too focused on wanting to be celebrities these days and if that's really all they're after there is an easy way to achieve it:

"When people say "I want to be famous – I want to be a star", you have to ask: "What are your intentions? If you just want to be famous, make a sex tape." So what I'd say is, if you're doing it because you want to be a respected actress or musician, follow your dream. If you just want paparazzi following you, rethink what's going on in your little head. It's crazy how people confuse the two nowadays."

When asked about having her private life constantly intruded upon, Lovato joked that she's jealous of Daft Punk for being able to walk around unnoticed: "I'm completely jealous of that – mainly because they could go to a restaurant on a date without people coming up to them and making them feel weird."
