Former Disney star Bella Thorne, a gorgeous, leggy, successful actress and model, isn't immune from the odd bully. The 18-year-old has us playing "guess the Hollywood mean girl" after she is embroiled in a bitter feud with another well-known starlet, whom she didn't name, and avoids her "at all costs" because she is "a mean girl."
The Midnight Sun actress dished about a supposed "mean girl" she's come across during an interview.
"I have a mean girl. She's in the business, and she's very, very mean. I stay away from her at all costs. I never say hello to her," Thorne said, without identifying the star in question. "Her siblings are not mean like she is. It's just her. One of the reasons I don't like her is because she's been a billionaire since she was very little, and she's never had to work for anything in her life."
Thorne has already put the kibosh on one possible suspect, tweeting that the mean girl in question is definitely not a member of the Kardashian/Jenner clan. "I adore the Jenner girls especially @KylieJenner," she posted Tuesday afternoon.
With Jenner crossed off the list, amateur detectives are turning their attention to another young model who seems to fit the bill: Gigi Hadid. Hadid is certainly "in the business," comes from a wealthy family, and has several siblings, including a younger sister, Bella, who's known to be friends with Thorne.
Other notable suspects include Ariana Grande, known for alleged diva behavior, actress sisters Rooney and Kate Mara, whose family owns two NFL teams, and Miley Cyrus, who's got some help along the way from her dad, Billy Ray.
Thorne also dissed but didn't name one of her ex-boyfriends, recalling the time a former love crossed the line.
"An ex of mine and I knew each other's phone passwords, and he was constantly going through my phone," she said. "I learned not to do that because anything can be misread."
These days, Thorne is dating 'Faking It' actor Gregg Sulkin. "Gregg has my password, but he doesn't go through my phone," she added of her current beau, 23. "The ex and I also had a 'Don't talk to the opposite sex' rule, so if a guy I was working with wrote me, it would be a big problem."
Thorne's personal interview also included anecdotes about her family and late father, Reinaldo Thorne, who died in a motorcycle accident in 2007. She hinted that the tragedy is one reason why she hasn't gotten her driving permit yet.
"I have a fear of driving," she said. "I'm not mature enough to accept the responsibility of perhaps taking someone else's life."
Another fact fans might not know about Thorne is how she used food stamps while growing up. "I don't think anybody really knew, it wasn't a very obvious thing. I've never really talked about it," she said. "I wasn't hiding it, and it wasn't like, 'Oh, I'm embarrassed because we don't have money.' It was, 'Oh, we don't have money, so we're going to work that much harder.' It was scary, though, because you really want those jobs. It's a different hunger when you want your family to eat."
