Demi Lovato Hopes To Be home By Thanksgiving

Demi Lovato is getting better and, while she currently remains on the mend in Chicago, she is hoping to be able to go home before the holidays.

“She doesn’t want to be in the center for Thanksgiving and wants to go home,” a source says.

In the meantime, she plans to bring a little piece of Hollywood to her. We heard Demi Lovato is planning to watch Miley Cyrus perform at the American Music Awards, which airs this Sunday.

Though Demi hopes to be well enough to spend the holidays at home, she’s not planning on going back to work until after the New Year, a Disney Channel insider tells us. The network is hoping its Sonny With a Chance star returns to the show within the first few months of 2011, but they do not want her rushing back before she’s ready, a source says. Disney announced last week that it would focus the sitcom’s plot on the show-within-a-show, So Random!, to pass the time while Demi’s gone.

As for her music career, a Disney source says the singer laid down four or five tracks before going on tour with the Jonas Brothers, but album plans have been shelved for now. “They’re still committed to her,” a source said. “No one is abandoning her. But she is holding off on her music for a bit.” "There are a lot of people who never heard of Demi Lovato before this,” the source added, “and if she can get through this, she will come back stronger and bigger than ever.”
