Demi Lovato's 'Skyscraper' Hits #1 on iTunes, Draws Praise from Celebs and Fans

This week, former Disney star Demi Lovato unveiled her first single since seeking treatment for "emotional and physical issues" last year. The song, "Skyscraper," has already proved a hit, shooting to the top of iTunes' singles chart and drawing the praise of Lovato's admiring fans and colleagues.
