Nude photos allegedly of Lovato were released on the internet in 2013 and in 2014 a hacker released risqué photos her boyfriend, Wilmer Valderrama had on his computer, but Lovato is much more confident in her own skin now. "I would have never thought I would have gotten to a place in my life where I could pose naked," she said in the video about her nude shoot.

Lovato arrived at the shoot the day after her beloved great-grandfather passed away and she arrived "emotionally drained," but ready for the job, VF said. "If there's one thing I've learned in the past day, it's that life is too short," she told the photographer. "I'm about to launch an album that finally represents who I truly am. How do I embrace this new chapter in my life? How do I really walk the walk? What does it mean to be confident? It means letting go, being authentic, saying I don't give a f**k and this is who I am."

Going nude was completely her idea the photographer revealed. "I want to show the side of me that's real, that's liberated, that's free," she told him. "What if we do a photo shoot where it's totally raw? Super-sexy, but no makeup, no fancy lighting, no retouching, and no clothing. Let's do it here, let's do it now."

"Lovato had rarely posed nude before, so I had to be respectful of that and tread lightly," Ecclesine said in Vanity Fair. "When I left her at three in the morning, she gave me a quick hug and thanked me for making her feel pretty. I thanked her for her confidence."
