Demi Lovato should call her Dad who is pleading for her to call. Her Dad is dying of cancer. Demi hasn’t spoken to her Dad since November 2010, although its unclear why they are having problems.

Her father has made an emotional plea, assuring Demi all he wants to do is talk, according to Hollywood Life.

“My health isn’t what it used to be and I know my daughter loves her daddy, so please call me Demi. It is not like I want anything from her, all I want is her love. I’m so proud that she’s doing what she did, I knew the day she was born that she was special to me, but I didn’t know she would be so special to so many people,” Demi Lovato’s estranged father says.

Do you have an idea why Demi isn’t speak with her Dad? Do you think it’s related to her rehab stay?

TMZ is reporting that Food Network star Ina “Barefoot Contessa” Garten has finally consented to meeting with a child named Enzo, a cancer patient whose dying wish was to cook a meal with Ina.

Enzo’s wish is over a year old and has been turned down by the Contessa’s camp twice before, however Ina is claiming that she only became aware of Enzo’s story this weekend. She will supposedly place a call to Enzo and his family later today.

Ignoring a Make-a-Wish kid?! That’s pretty awful, Ina!

Garten’s rep says that her client “looks forward to inviting [Enzo] to spend some time with her at the Food Network studios.”

Here’s hoping the plan holds up! After making a dying 6-year-old wait a year, Ina should be hopping right to it!
