Far Be It For Me

Bella Thorne chatted with Seventeen Magazine for their upcoming June/July issue. Bella graces the cover of the issue, which will hit newsstands later this month.

In the issue, Bella talks body image, her boyfriend, Tristan, working hard, her Shake It Up costar, Zendaya, and so much more. Highlights can be found below.

On body image:”Girls are shamed for their bodies and made to believe that they’re not supposed to show them or love them. They’re made to believe that they aren’t perfect, that they need to ‘work on it,’ that they need to see themselves differently—and I think it’s freaking ridiculous. It gets on my nerves because boys can do whatever; it’s like we’re living in the 1800s again. It drives me crazy.”

On her boyfriend, Tristan: “Tristan was not a relationship guy before me. On our first date, he thought I was going to be just like the other girls he had met who would always give it up and kiss him right away…I waited six weeks – I had to make sure he was in it to win it.”

On Zendaya: “The truth is we are so different, there is no competition. And when people tried to compare us or turn us against each other, we’d just talk about it, and then everything was cool. We love each other.”
