The 33-year-old artist is re-entering what she refers to as her “Popvato” era, focusing on uptempo dance tracks on her upcoming album, It\u2019s Not That Deep<\/a>.<\/p>\n “I think it’s really a reflection of where I’m at personally,” Lovato says of her ninth studio album in the new cover story for PAPER magazine<\/a>. “I’m not in this place in my life where I need these huge emotional ballads to release some sort of deep emotional trauma I’m going through.”<\/p>\n The Disney alum, who tied the knot with singer-songwriter Jordan “Jutes” Lutes on May 25<\/a>, says that her current stage of life feels “lighter.”<\/p>\n Courtesy of DLG Recordings\/Island Records; Daniel Sachon<\/p>\n Demi Lovato’s It’s Not That Deep cover<\/p>\n “I started writing songs like that, and they just weren’t resonating … heavy topics like that. I’m in a place in my life where my energy feels very light,” she explains. “I just got married. It was a learning curve for me to take what I’ve always known about music, which is write what you know now. I had to learn how to write what was new to me, and that’s what this album is a reflection of. The tone of my life is lighter. I wanted a project that reflected that.”<\/p>\n In that vein, Lovato isn\u2019t interested in writing emotional lyrics this time around, saying, “I think this album isn’t really about the killer deep lines,” leading to the album\u2019s title.<\/p>\n “So it’s like, some things are that deep. But for me personally, right now, this music is not that deep for me,” she says. “That’s the energy I want to carry into this project with the music. I just want to be happy. That\u2019s what this is about for me.”<\/p>\n Lovato wed Jutes in an intimate Santa Barbara, Calif., wedding<\/a> back in May.<\/p>\n At the time, a source exclusively told PEOPLE that the actress and singer has “never been happier.”<\/p>\n “She truly loves Jordan,” the source said. “He\u2019s amazing to her.”<\/p>\n Jutes\/Instagram<\/p>\n Demi Lovato and Jordan Lutes<\/p>\n The couple, who met in 2022 while working on Lovato\u2019s last studio album, Holy Fvck, said their vows with the beach in the backdrop.<\/p>\n “The wedding setting was pure magic \u2014 an oceanfront estate with sweeping views of the coastline,” the source told PEOPLE of the ceremony, which was first reported by Vogue<\/a>.<\/p>\n While Lovato was “mostly smiling” throughout the ceremony, the insider noted that “there were a few emotional moments that clearly moved her.”<\/p>\n It\u2019s Not That Deep is available Oct. 24.<\/p>\n![\"Courtesy](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/7ceb2f4c7ac09ad4f561ace3e90b86d2.jpeg\"\/)
