Demi Lovato's rep has confirmed that the 20-year-old singer's biological father Patrick Lovato has died.
Demi has yet to release a statement on his passing, and it's no secret that the two had a rocky relationship. Patrick was the subject of her 2011 song, "For the Love of a Daughter," and when Demi went to rehab in 2010, her estranged father spoke to the media trying to get through to her.
In 2009 Demi told the New York Daily News, "The last time I talked to him was two years ago. You try to have faith in somebody, even when you're the last person that believes in him. But when somebody lets you down after you've been the only one there for them, and so many times, you don't know what else to do ... I had to cut off all connection. It was hurting me too much."
In October of 2011 Patrick spoke to Radar and revealed that he was ailing from cancer and still trying to reach his daughter. “It is not like I want anything from her, all I want is her love,†he told the site.
Demi's mom Dianna De La Garza tweeted, "Thank you for the outpouring of love and prayers. Y'all are amazing!" while Demi's older sister, Dallas, 25, wrote, "Rest in peace daddy I love you."

You can't make these things up!
Justin Bieber rented a private jet to take him from Miami to Burbank yesterday, and it was supposed to leave around 11am EST, but the plane didn't end up taking off until after 8pm!
Apparently Bieber called to say he was running late and showed up at around 3pm, but he said he wasn't ready because he needed to pick up his pet monkey in West Palm Beach. After four hours, the monkey still wasn't anywhere to be found, so get this -- Bieber chartered a helicopter to bypass street traffic and collect his furry friend, according to TMZ.
Biebs documented the drama on Instagram, including a few videos of him in the chopper and on the ground, looking oh so tough...

Ashley Tisdale and her boyfriend Christopher French got sushi on Friday night in the valley, and the couple weren't in the best mood, but they did dress up for their date! We can always count on the former High School Musical hottie to wear an amazing outfit, and interestingly enough, Chris covered up his tattoos with a tee and a dark jacket. Maybe Ash had some say in his wardrobe choice for the evening?
Ash and Chris have never been that lovey dovey in public, and they definitely keep the details of their relationship under wraps. The duo have been dating for almost 8 months now and they're still joined at the hip, so it looks like that's working well for them!

Paris Jackson has been in in a psychiatric facility at the UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles since attempting to take her own life on June 5, and now People Magazine is reporting that Michael Jackson's only daughter is headed to a longer-term treatment center out of state.
"Paris will be staying at least another week, and then she'll be going to a facility for additional care," says the source. "This has been so hard for Mrs. Jackson. She keeps saying she's never had any experience of how to deal with someone in this situation."
Katherine and Paris' biological mother Debbie Rowe sat down with doctors and agreed that this was the best move. Apparently Katherine fears that her granddaughter had "fallen in with the wrong crowd" in Los Angeles. The facility will include both school and therapy.
Jermaine Jackson and his family caught a screening of Man of Steel on Friday in Calabasas, and when asked how his niece Paris is doing, he smiled but didn't have much to say ... check out the gallery below for more photos of the Jackson family.

Looks like the diamond ring she was wearing the other day was just an accessory after all!
Yesterday a makeup-free Diane Kruger ran errands in Los Angeles wearing a tee that read, "Love is all there is," and earlier in the week she was photographed wearing a simple band on her left ring finger. Some sites speculated that it was a promise ring or that she had turned the band around to hide her rock, but it looks like Pacey hasn't proposed just yet...
This week Life & Style broke the news that Diane's longtime love Joshua Jackson was recently spotted "admiring a special engagement ring inside Neil Lane’s store in Beverly Hills." A source tells the mag, “He was looking at an $80,000 3.5-carat emerald-cut platinum engagement ring. He thinks it’s perfect.â€
