Demi Lovato became known worldwide for music, but her professional trajectory began in childhood in front of the cameras. Before achieving stardom as a singer, she participated in the children's show "Barney & Friends," alongside Selena Gomez.

The film followed a teenager who dreamed of developing her musical talent at a summer camp. The film's success helped transform Demi into one of Disney's main young stars during that period.

In 2009, she starred in "Princess Protection Program," alongside Selena Gomez, playing Princess Rosalinda. In the same year, she debuted the series "Sonny with a Chance," marking the expansion of her career on television before definitively establishing herself as a musical artist.
