Bella Thorne<\/a> called out “inappropriate” sexualization of herself as a minor as she attended the 2023 Sundance Film Festival.<\/p>\n

Thorne, 25, claimed a man looking to get her autograph on a bunch of items only wanted her to sign “sexy” images of her \u2014 which included one of her at 16 years old.<\/p>\n

“I normally don\u2019t tell them off but they offended me,” Thorne explained after being asked about the group of autograph seekers while being interviewed by The Hollywood Reporter. “It was this guy and he was shoving photos in front of me and I looked away for a second and looked back and there was a photo of me from my GQ magazine cover<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s super sexy and my butt is out and I\u2019m wearing lingerie and I\u2019m topless,” she added. “I said I wouldn\u2019t sign that and he took it away and then put it back in front of me again. I said, \u2018No, I\u2019m not signing that.\u2019 He pulled out another photo of a magazine with another sexy image. He was like, \u2018Come on, Bella. Sign it for me.\u2019 I didn\u2019t like it. It was inappropriate.”<\/p>\n

BELLA THORNE SAYS THE DISNEY CHANNEL ALMOST FIRED HER FOR WEARING A BIKINI AT 14<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Thorne emphasized that she doesn’t necessarily care about signing autographs for people, but she took issue with the specific images of herself that he wanted to be signed.<\/p>\n

“There was some stuff there from a Candies campaign that I did when I was 16 and it was clear that he wanted me to sign things that were viewed as sexy and even underage and I was like, \u2018Give me something else.\u2019 He said, \u2018Aren\u2019t they all sexy?\u2019 No, enough is enough,” she continued. “But I get it, they have to make money and everyone has a job so I get that. It was just that I was under 18 and it\u2019s inappropriate.”<\/p>\n

The former Disney Channel star admitted she “definitely” rethinks some of those images as she’s gotten older.<\/p>\n

“Definitely, but it\u2019s just that, I wouldn\u2019t do that now. You also can\u2019t spend your time trying to take back these moments or moments that you were too sexy or think that being a woman is only this or that,” Thorne explained. “That\u2019s what my other short addresses, it\u2019s about growing up and being told from a very young age or by experiences that life as a woman means that people are either going to take something from you or you\u2019re going to give it to them. It\u2019s not always going to be your choice. And how do you deal with that?”<\/p>\n

The actress also noted that she feels she “made it out” of child stardom “pretty clean.”<\/p>\n

“I also think when you\u2019re growing up, now you have boobs all of a sudden and everything\u2019s growing and become more and more intense. You start liking people and everything changes,” she told the outlet. “But for me, I actually made it out pretty clean. I could\u2019ve done so many worse things as so many teenagers do. I didn\u2019t have really rough issues with mental [health] or get stuck in a really dark place where you don\u2019t want to get out of bed. I mean, I\u2019ve definitely been there but I have been pretty lucky.”<\/p>\n

Thorne launched her career with the Disney channel show “Shake It Up”<\/a> after a handful of smaller roles.<\/p>\n

She went on to star in “Blended,” “The Babysitter,” “The DUFF” and “Infamous.” The actress also released music including the single “Watch Me” and a couple of EPs.<\/p>\n

Thorne also dabbled in the adult film industry with the release of “Her & Him,” which she directed.<\/p>\n

The actress previously explained to Fox News Digital how she transitioned out of being labeled as a Disney star.<\/p>\n

“I stopped worrying about what the world was thinking of me and started focusing on my true fans that loved me. After Disney, I had the opportunity to find my true self and that is reflected in all my work from acting, producing, directing, and writing,” she said. “I have more artistic freedom to continue to express myself.”<\/p>\n

Thorne also noted that she had some regrets from her time working for Disney.<\/p>\n

“I wish I would have been true to myself. When it came to filming, I would talk in a higher voice or do different things to make myself appear more innocent,” Thorne explained. “It\u00a0made me feel like a liar because I had to pretend to be someone I was not \u2014 even if it made me famous.”\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
