Demi Lovato is honoring their late friend with an emotional new song.

On Saturday (Oct. 9), the 29-year-old singer took to social media to share "Unforgettable (Tommy's Song)," a heartfelt track dedicated to model Thomas Trussell III, who died in October 2019 after battling a drug addiction.

"Two years ago I lost someone who meant so much to me. His name was Tommy and he was such a beautiful, special man," Lovato captioned a clip of the song. "I wrote this song the day after I found out that he had lost his battle with addiction. This disease is extremely cunning and powerful."

Lovato, who has been open about her own struggles with substance abuse, added that proceeds from "Unforgettable (Tommy's Song)" will benefit The Voices Project, a nonprofit recovery advocacy organization founded by Ryan Hampton.

The singer also encouraged anyone struggling with addiction to call the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's national helpline at 1-800-662-HELP.

Following his death in 2019, Lovato paid tribute to Trussell on social media. "Devastated. Please hold your loved ones tight. Tell them they are special and that you love them," they captioned a photo of the late model. "Make sure they know it. RIP to my boo."

Earlier this year, Lovato released a two-part magnum opus about their own 2018 overdose: the YouTube Originals docuseries Dancing With the Devil and a companion album of the same name. The singer re-created the hospital scene following their overdose in a music video for the album's title track. Lovato also opened up about the cathartic and "healing" process of filming the video while they broke down on set revisiting the darkest moment of their life.

Maroon 5 officially launched the second weekend of American Express presents BST Hyde Park with a headline performance on London's Great Oak Stage on Friday, 3 July 2026. Taking a short break from their ongoing global Love Is Like tour, the multi-platinum American pop rock band delivered an energetic sold out concert for thousands of fans. The milestone performance reflected just how far the group has come since making its London debut at the intimate Barfly venue in 2005.

Frontman Adam Levine guided the six member band through an uninterrupted set packed with worldwide hits, kicking things off with "Harder To Breathe" after an opening audio tribute to The Beach Boys. The energy stayed high as the group launched into fan favorites including "Animals" and "One More Night," with Levine making his way along the runway to connect with fans gathered at the front of the stage. As the evening sky over London began to glow, "Sunday Morning" provided one of the night's standout moments, featuring an extended guitar showcase from lead guitarist James Valentine. The audience then joined together for huge singalongs to "She Will Be Loved" and the Cardi B collaboration "Girls Like You." The main performance wrapped up with the instantly recognizable whistle melody of "Moves Like Jagger," before an encore featuring "Payphone" and "Sugar" brought the night to an unforgettable finish.

The main stage also welcomed a crowd pleasing set from pop rock band OneRepublic during the late afternoon. Frontman Ryan Tedder performed a string of beloved hits spanning nearly twenty years, including "Stop and Stare," "Apologize," and the hugely successful European streaming favorite "Counting Stars." He also treated fans to a solo medley highlighting songs he has written for artists including Beyoncé and Adele.

Earlier in the day, Jess Glynne attracted a huge audience with spirited performances of chart hits "I’ll Be There" and "Hold My Hand," while R&B singer Ella Eyre impressed with powerful renditions of "Space" and a soulful take on "Crazy."
