I love you, you love me… and Demi Lovato loved Barney.

In a new interview on SiriusXM's The Howard Stern Show, the "Cool for the Summer" singer reflected on one of her earliest crushes: the man inside the purple dinosaur suit.

Lovato's first screen role was on Barney & Friends in 2002, when she was around 10 years old. "By the time I was old enough to work on Barney, it wasn't cool anymore to watch it. That's why I think I got teased at school," the singer recalled.
