Both Lovatics and PewDiePie fans alike weren't impressed with the YouTuber.

"Come on Felix, we've stayed with you through a l o t, don't make a joke out of someone struggling with such a terrible addiction," one fan said. "Leave our Demi alone!" wrote another.

Even fellow YouTubers turned their back on the young influencer.

"Come on bro, this is making light of something that a lot of humanity struggles with day in and day out, and countless families have been torn apart by it," Jimmy Wong, host of YouTube's "Feast of Fiction," wrote.

This comes just a few months after PewDiePie was under fire for using racist slurs while gaming.

As for Lovato, The Blast has learned she's been leaning heavily on ex-boyfriend Wilmer Valderrama who rushed to her bedside after learning about the hospitalization.
