<\/div>\n<\/div>\nEras Clothes Rack\/\u201dReally Don\u2019t Care\u201d Pull<\/h2>\n\n\n\tThe clothes rack has been a recurring symbol for the It\u2019s Not That Deep<\/em> era, so it was only right that it made an appearance onstage Friday night. Lovato used the prop as part of a larger banter section in which she walked the crowd through memory lane, with each look on the rack corresponding to a different album era of hers. Though the whole thing turned out to be a gag to introduce Jojo to the stage, it was still a nice tribute to Demi\u2019s winding career.<\/p>\n\n\tRight before the encore, however, Demi reached all the way back to her 2013 self-titled era for \u201cReally Don\u2019t Care,\u201d which she correctly introduced as the \u201cOG \u2018it\u2019s not that deep\u2019 anthem.\u201d Playing on similar lyrical themes and power pop vibes, \u201cReally\u201d didn\u2019t just trigger long-buried mid-2010s memories; it also brought the show full-circle in a clear, tangible way \u2014 a true testament to the sequencing of the night\u2019s setlist.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n

\nJutes Assists on Sweet \u201cIris\u201d Duet<\/h2>\n\n\n\tNearly a year ago (May 25, 2025), Lovato married Canadian musician Jordan \u201cJutes\u201d Lutes, with the adorable couple selecting Goo Goo Dolls\u2019 \u201cIris\u201d for their first dance. For her headlining MSG show, Lovato didn\u2019t miss the chance to recreate that moment with her husband by bringing him out for a surprise duet of \u201cIris\u201d in the back half of the show. \u201cWhat do you say we sing together for the first time?\u201d she quipped with a toothy smile before launching into a duet that turned the arena into an intimate late-night dive bar set. And, of course, their frequent smooches were the cherry on top.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n

\nAd\u00e9la Thrills in Opening Set<\/h2>\n\n\n\tRising pop star and Dream Academy<\/em> alumna Ad\u00e9la may only have a handful of singles to her name, but most of them are absolute bangers \u2014 and she fully commits to performing each of them as if they were global chart-topping smashes. Donning hot pink heels and a lacy two-piece outfit, Ad\u00e9la absolutely rocked the stage like a true pop diva, tearing through club-ready cuts like \u201cKGB\u201d and \u201cSex on the Beat.\u201d In between serving looks and choreography, she also flaunted her vocal chops with \u201cHomewrecked\u201d and delivered a fiery closer with \u201cSuperscar,\u201d perfectly setting the stage for the main event.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n- \n
\nThe Vocals<\/h2>\n\n\n\tWith two Grammy nominations to her name, Lovato has long been regarded as one of the strongest vocalists among her pop star contemporaries \u2014 and Friday night was yet another reminder of why. Every climax was more thrilling in the last, from her soulful \u201cTell Me You Love Me\u201d post-chorus ad-libs to the hair-raising belts near the end of the \u201cConfident.\u201d But the real treat was her gametime decision to drop the final, rafters-reaching belt of \u201cStone Cold\u201d a few steps to ensure an elongated, dramatic finale to one of her most beloved ballads. If anything, Demi\u2019s outstanding vocals \u2014 even the lighter moments on standouts like \u201cLow Rise Jeans\u201d \u2014 made the absence of Holy Fvck<\/em> particularly egregious.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n- \n
\nJojo Pops Out for Surprise \u201cToo Little Too Late\u201d Duet<\/h2>\n\n\n\tIn June, Jojo will join the Broadway revival of Chess<\/em>, taking over the role of Florence Vassy from Lea Michele and starring opposite Aaron Tveit and Nicholas Christopher. Naturally, she\u2019s in town rehearsing for the show, and made the time to stop by Lovato\u2019s MSG show for a surprise duet of \u201cToo Little Too Late.\u201d Most artists dream of having a song with even half the lifespan and cultural longevity of \u201cToo Little,\u201d and the way the sold-out arena yelled every lyric was proof of why. Nonetheless, this moment reached its peak when Lovato and Jojo traded ad-libs at the end. In fact, they should have brought out their 2020 \u201cLonely Hearts\u201d collab for good measure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[analyse_source url=”https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/lists\/demi-lovato-its-not-that-deep-tour-review-new-york-msg\/”]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
