Kim Kardashian and Beyoncé take a bow.
The celebrity pair is doing their bit for women everywhere - well, at least according to Demi Lovato.
The 22-year-old singer has heaped praise on Kim and Beyoncé saying their famous curves have helped refine beauty and made a whole generation of women see it is not all about being super skinny.
The Skycrappers songstress opened up to Access Hollywood on Thursday about her acceptance of her own shape, saying she along with other women have the pair to thank for making the road to body confidence easier.
The star told Access Hollywood: 'When I was growing up and when I was a pre-teen, the people that I had to look up to [for] body image [were] extremely underweight. [They] were all very bony at that time and that was the in thing.'
But now the former Disney star says she is glad she has curves and glad she has role models to look up to that also have curvaceous physiques.
'I really credit women like Beyoncé and Kim Kardashian, [they] completely revolutionized what our generation's view of perception of what beautiful is and I really think that they had a huge impact on that.
Big impact: The 22-year-old said, 'Beyoncé (pictured at VMAs) and Kim Kardashian (seen earlier this month) completely revolutionized what our generation's view of perception of what beautiful is'
Fit and happy: Demi, of course, still works hard on her figure and on Friday she posted a picture of herself working out in her private gym
'You can think whatever you want about the Kardashians, but they really did help tons of women feel comfortable in their own skin and I like to carry that message on.'
The pop star said any red carpet now shows the shift.
'Look at J.Lo, look at Scarlett Johansson, Sophia Vergara, Beyoncé – who I don't really consider human, she is more like a goddess – they have amazing figures it's more realistic and achievable.'
Sending the right message: The singer and the reality star are close and Demi (pictured 2012) believes no matter what you think of the Kardashians they are spreading body confidence and acceptance
Thought provoking: Kim (pictured this month) is comfortable in her own skin prompting others to be the same
Demi, of course, still works hard on her figure and on Friday she posted a picture of herself working out in her private gym.
The star captioned the image: 'Morning workout Jane Fonda style. (Insert fabulous ass emoji here).'
Now sporting a fuller figure, Demi said she looks back at older pictures of herself and realises she was miserable.
On Tuesday, the star posted a picture showing her evolution on the MTV VMAs red carpet.

She told Access Hollywood, she does not look back at her first time down the carpet in 2008 fondly.
'The very first time that I ever went to the VMAs and I just looked so bony and fragile and unhappy. Yes, I was at the VMAs and I was 16 and I was having an incredible time, but at the same time I was miserable.'
'I look back at that and I think you know what, I may have been thinner, but I am so happy that I am healthy today and I have curves which are a lot more sexier than what I was aiming for. I think curves are beautiful and I feel great.'
Not happy: First walking down the VMAs red carpet in 2008, Demi looks back at the image and sees a miserable girl too focused on being skinny
