Demi performed the song live for the first time on Sunday night at the Rock In Rio Lisboa festival.

The former Disney star has been open publicly with her battles with addiction - as well as she and her 2010 stint in rehab.

She celebrated her six year milestone of sobriety during a concert in March.

The following month, she was snapped drinking from a cup with yellow-tinted liquid at Hayley Kiyoko's album release party - but she was quick to shut down her critics who doubted her sobriety.

She replied on social media: 'I don't have to defend anything but it was red bull.'
