Watch Demi Lovato Knock Down Sylvester Stallone

By Robyn Collins

(RADIO.COM) – Don't say Demi Lovato isn't a fighter.

Lovato is a Disney child star who made her way through years of battling bulimia, self-harm and addiction. She was was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and after a stint in rehab is now in a healthy place personally and professionally.

The pop singer showed off her fighting skills on Wednesday (Nov. 3) when she strapped on some boxing gloves and got into the ring with Rocky star Sylvester Stallone. The two superstars danced around the mat at the Unbreakable gym on Sunset Strip, all in good fun. At one point, the 70-year-old swung and Lovato ducked the punch, then delivered a blow that sent him to the mat.

Stallone popped back up and said, "I slipped, I slipped, I swear it was an accident!"

TMZ caught the whole thing on tape, so it must not have been any sort of publicity stunt. Stallone's sequel to Creed is due out November 2017. Maybe there will be a part in there for Demi Lovato.
