X Factor judge and singer, Demi Lovato is catching heat from Miley Cyrus's best friend, Cheyne Thomas after she admitted to being addicted to cocaine in an exclusive interview with "Access Hollywood."

Lovato said, "I couldn't go half an hour without cocaine," and the jokes rolled in as Cyrus's assistant, Thomas slammed the habit on social media jokingly saying, "I can only go 30 to 60 minutes with coke," he said before chugging back a Coca Cola bottle.

Although, the joke received some laughs, Lovato's interview opened to Kit Hoover about her darkest moments, "I would smuggle it basically and just wait until everyone in first class would go to sleep, and I would do it right there. I'd sneak to the bathroom, and I'd do it. That's how difficult it got and that was even with somebody [with me]. I had a sober companion, somebody who was watching me 24/7 and living with me [and] I was able to hide it from them as well."

Lovato added, "I would manipulate everyone around me. There were times I would just continue to lie, so that everything looked OK on the outside," Lovato told Hoover.

Was the joke too extreme?
