Two Demi Lovato Tracks Earn RIAA Five-Times Platinum Certifications

Demi Lovato is celebrating two massive hit singles…

The 33-year-old Mexican-American singer/actress has earned two new RIAA five-times Platinum certifications: 2015’s “Cool for the Summer” and fellow Confident track “Confident.”

Demi LovatoThe tracks follow only “Sorry Not Sorry,” which was certified seven-times Platinum in December 2023, and “Heart Attack,” which was certified six-times Platinum in January 2026.

Disney Music Group president Ken Bunt presented Lovato with the certifications ahead of the Los Angeles premiere of Camp Rock 3 this week; the film arrives on Thursday, August 13 on Disney Channel and the following day on Disney+.

The new milestones are just another bullet to add to the list of the successes these songs have had.

“Cool for the Summer,” released in July 2015 as the lead single from Lovato’s album Confident, reached No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 in September of that year.

Meanwhile, the title track peaked at No. 21 in December 2015.

This era was a particularly strong period for Lovato, with Confident debuting at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 in November 2015 and being nominated for best pop vocal album at the Grammys.

With Lovato stepping back into the Disney universe that launched her career, the timing of the announcement feels very poetic and full-circle.

Lovato’s connection to Disney has long been intertwined with her music career, as her performance of “This Is Me” with Joe Jonas from the original Camp Rock became a defining hit from the franchise.

In Camp Rock 3, she reprises her fan-favorite role as Mitchie Torres and steps in as an executive producer on the film. The film comes nearly two decades after the original Camp Rock premiered in 2008.

More recently, Lovato released her ninth studio album, It’s Not That Deep, in October 2025.

Lovato Reunites with Ex-Boyfriend Joe Jonas for “Camp Rock” Duet

Demi Lovato has reunited with an ex-boyfriend…

But it’s not what you think!

Demi Lovato & Joe Jonas

The 22-year-old part-Mexican American singer-actress joined forces with her ex, Joe Jonas, for a special Camp Rock reunion when she made a tour stop in Los Angeles over the weekend.

Nearly six years after the Disney Channel original movie that they starred in together premiered, the two singers performed one of the songs from the film for the crowd at the Staples Center.

“You want to hear me play a really old song?” Lovato said while introducing the song. The intro of “This Is Me” kicked in and fans in the audience began freaking out. They sang along and screamed louder when Jonas appeared onstage mid-song to sing his part. She gave him a big hug after finishing the duet.

After the performance, Jonas posted an Instagram photo of him and Lovato onstage, saying, “Surprise LA! @DDLovato thank you for having me.” He also shared a video taken during a rehearsal and captioned it, “Tonight was amazing. Fun keeping this a secret.”

Jonas wasn’t the only special guest at Lovato’s L.A. concert. The “Really Don’t Care” hitmaker was also joined by Blink-182‘s drummer Travis Barker. She took to Instagram to share several photos of her performing with her guests.
