Disney actress Bella Thorne has had her hand forced by hackers, and over the course of the last week decided to leak nude images of herself to the internet after her private and x-rated photos of herself were obtained by criminals.

Taking to Twitter, Thorne posted the images to her own social media accounts, writing: "F**k u and the power u think you have over me. I’m gonna write about this in my next book. [sic]"

However, the actress was criticised by Whoopi Goldberg, who stated that Thorne herself bears some of the responsibility for the incident herself. Goldberg said: "If you’re famous, I don’t care how old you are. You don’t take nude pictures of yourself."

You can check out Thorne's response to Goldberg's comments in the video below:

Thorne was saddened and shamed by the 63-year-old comments. But it appears as though many other celebrities have now rallied around her. On Instagram, Thorne uploaded screenshots of supportive messages she received from vlogger Logan Paul, Madison Beer, and Dove Cameron.

For example, Logan Paul wrote: "I saw your post about your nudes and felt empathetic, THEN I saw that post where you were talking about being molested and paparazzi when you were young and felt more EMPATHETIC and you’re a real bad bitch. Like you’re a f*cking badass. [sic]"

Meanwhile, Dove Cameron wrote: "Where is the support for young women. I love women. Everyone should love women. Don’t be an asshole! Sexuality is part of being HUMAN. But judgement and objectification is not. Ugh, I can’t handle to ugly. [sic]"

Madison Beer added: "Why aren’t we talking about the men who betrayed our trust and humiliated us? Why aren’t we saying shame on them for doing something so nasty and mean? We clearly trust those we send anything risky to as people in the public so thank you for saying this."

In another Instagram post, Thorne also revealed that fellow former Disney star Zendaya called her to make sure the actress "was okay".

Bella herself has now spoken out about Whoopi Goldberg's response to the scandal, calling The View panellist 'disgusting.'

Are you ready to hear about the latest celebrity feud? In one corner, Demi Lovato: singer, actress, and passionate advocate for mental health. In the other corner, Perez Hilton: celebrity gossip blogger, television personality and guy who's somehow still a thing in 2018. (Wow. Who knew doodling on tabloid photographs would lead to such a long career?)

Okay, so here's what happened: At a concert in Las Vegas, Demi Lovato performed her many hit songs which I am too lazy to look up right now. One of them was "Sorry Not Sorry," an anthem in which she defiantly taunts her haters.

The day after the concert, Demi revealed that that performance had a special meaning: ""The other night I got to sing SNS directly to one of USA’s most notorious bullies," the singer tweeted.  "It felt so fucking great. That’s what the song is all about!!! Sorry not sorry that you were in the audience watching me kill it."

[[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/ddlovato/status/970843223433265152]]

The Twitter-verse buzzed with speculation over the identity of this mysterious bully. But Demi  refused to name names, tweeting, "He’s remaining nameless because he doesn’t deserve the relevance that he doesn’t have anymore." (Ouch.)

Luckily, Perez Hilton figured out exactly who she was talking about: Perez Hilton. What are the odds? On Twitter, the blogger complained, "@DDLovato claims to be an anti-bullying activist. But she sure is coming across like a bully to me! This is my response to her tweets against me!" Then he links to a four minute YouTube video, in which he fires back:

[[youtubewidget||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gujp7Rh7Dec]]

"Is Demi Lovato a bully?" asks Perez. "In the past, she's said a lot of bullying things toward many people, most notably, Taylor Swift." In an interview with Glamour magazine, Demi Lovato did slam Taylor Swift for bashing Katy Perry. Also, she accused Taylor's squad of not promoting a healthy body image. Does that count as bullying? And if you call a bully a bully is that bullying? This is getting confusing. Anyway, Perez continues:

"Demi Lovato has a lot of issues, from her bipolar issue to her addiction issue, substance abuse, to her food issues to her place in Hollywood. She's not Taylor Swift. She's not Selena Gomez, and it must not be easy for her. So I'm not going to respond to her negativity with more negativity."

Isn't it a little late for that? It seems like a low blow to randomly bring up Demi's struggles with an eating disorder and substance abuse. Also, it's odd Perez Hilton is so pro-Taylor Swift, when just a few months ago, he accused her of being a 'media bully.'

As the video goes on, and on and on on, Perez gloats how the show was "far from sold out" and how he "didn't pay for a ticket." In addition, he thanks Demi "for the write-up," although she never mentioned his name:

"I love that she just tweeted this about me...I will just say thank you. I appreciate the write-up. It's been getting a lot of attention and I'm honest, I love atten-tion! And I didn't pay for the ticket, thankfully! If I had to pay to go to see Demi Lovato in concert, I would not have. Simple as that...you would think ten years into her career, Demi would have thicker skin, but she doesn't, and I'm thankful for that!"

In response, Demi's fans declared Perez Hilton to be "over."

One person posted a screenshot of the two sniping at each other on Instagram. Under one of Demi's photos, Perez commented, "So sad that you're STILL talking sh-t about Taylor Swift. It really comes off as jealous and desperate." Demi replied, "ew, get out my feed." You know I'm starting to get the feeling these two don't like each other.

One eagle-eyed fan spotted Perez in the front row of Demi's concert. Hope he enjoyed the show!

So, who's the real bully? You'll have to decide. I think the real bully is the bully who thinks being called a bully is bullying.

Former Disney actress Bella Thorne has been criticized by social media users over her Halloween costume, which supposedly glamourizes domestic abuse.

This week, the actress and model took to Instagram to post some pictures of her Halloween get-up, with a fake blood spatters and smoky eyeshadow, which gave the illusion of bloodstained lips and bruised eyes. Bella captioned the post: "Hire me for your Halloween makeup I got u boo ??? ???"

However, some Instagram users took umbrage with Bella's picture and claimed that it appeared to make her look like a survivor of domestic violence.

Indeed, a number of Instagram users took to the comments to claim that Thorne was actually being facetious with her cosmetics, while others were more concerned about her safety, and worried that someone had struck her.

Take a look at this video of Bella Thorne showing off her hairy armpits:

For instance, one Instagram user commented: "Girl is this really makeup because it looks real asf and I want to beat up whoever did it to you. [sic]" Meanwhile, someone else wrote: "[That] looks so real I was scared before reading the caption lol [sic]" and someone else added: "Looks like domestic violence to me."

In a recent interview with CR Fashion, Thorne opened up about how the double standard with how women and men express sexuality on social media, stating: "I do know that if Justin Bieber posts a photo of himself shirtless, nobody’s giving him a hard time, but if I post a picture of myself in a bikini, they’re like: 'You’re a whore.'"

[[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/B4OH453nUJb/]]

She added: "It’s about owning your own sh*t, and not listening to what other people tell you you should be like, or dress like, or talk like. There’s something amazing and wonderful about watching a woman who’s like: 'F*ck all that.'"

Bella Thorne has leaked nude photos of herself in order to take back power from a hacker who threatened to release them.

The actress - best known for her role on the Disney Channel's Shake It Up - had her Twitter account hacked last week, and posted screenshots of a series of messages from an anonymous person threatening to leak her personal videos and selfies, saying: "YO BELLA! Got all the videos."

[[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/ByIwmw4Hn3A/?utm_source=ig_embed]]

Addressing her fans, the 21-year-old explained why she was leaking them first.

"Yesterday as u all know all my s*** was hacked," she began in a statement on Twitter. "For the last 24 hours I have been threatened with my own nudes I feel gross, I feel watched, I feel someone has taken something from me that I only wanted one special person to see. He has sent me multiple nude photos of other celebs, he won’t stop with me or them he will just keep going."

Thorne then explained that she was sick of a man having control, and was taking the power back by releasing the photos, captioning her tweet with "f**k u and the power u think you have over me".

"Here’s the photos he’s been threatening me with, in other words here’s my boobies, [sic]" she wrote. "So here f*** u, and the last 24 hours I have been crying instead of celebrating my book while doing my book press. Oh yea, the FBI will be at your house shortly, so watch. Your. Mother. F***in. Back. [sic]."

While there have been some less than respectful comments about the images, the general consensus is overwhelmingly positive, with @huntermoreonoo writing: "You took the power back from this piece of s**t. That’s real strength. I love you."

Twitter user @LegendDVash also showered Thorne with praise for her decision, stating: "Wow. I am speechless. Be strong Bella. I have follow you since Disney Channel Days. And glad to know you have grown to be as strong as you are. S**t that’s some mess up s**t [sic] that person did. Be strong, nobody deserves that."

Speaking to the Hollywood Reporter, the model said that while she is extremely upset at the hack, she believes her hacker is a teenager, and explained that she doesn't want to "ruin" him.

"This kid sounds like he’s 17, as much as I’m so angry and wanted to f**k him up over doing this to people I just wanted to teach him a lesson," she said. "He’s still a kid and we make mistakes, this mistake is a bad one. But I don’t want some 17-year-old's whole life ruined because he wasn’t thinking straight and [was] being a dumbass."

[[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BxAwNloliC6/?utm_source=ig_embed]]

She continued: "He’s obviously smart so if he got on the right side of the tracks he could actually possibly help our community and be an alliance. You can’t always tear someone down for their bad sides but more so build up their good sides."

An influencer who appeared on Perez Hilton's livestream has shared an impassioned response after people accused her of "milking it."

Following Perez Hilton’s hospitalization on Tuesday after reports of him self-harming on a TikTok livestream, an influencer who appeared on the broadcast has hit back at claims she was “milking it”.

Hilton appeared on the livestream covered in blood after appearing to self-harm repeatedly in front of thousands of concerned viewers.

After the events of Tuesday, his team commented: “We are aware of the concerning content circulating online involving our client. At this time, we have not been able to make direct contact with him, despite our ongoing efforts to reach him. Our primary concern is Perez’s health and well being, as well as the well being of his family.”

The livestream quickly gained traction across social media, with the video being shared thousands of times on X, formerly Twitter.

Subsequently, dozens of calls were made to 911 by those watching the events play out in real time, helping police identify Hilton’s house and enter to “safely recover” the media personality.

While on the livestream, there were a number of influencers also part of the broadcast. One of them, Mina, has since claimed that some of those involved were actively encouraging it.

Discussing it on her own livestream, she said: “You don’t give a f**k about Perez, you saw the views going up and you stuck to it. The minute that you saw the views going up, when you started acting sad you milked it."

Influencer hits back at claims of 'milking it'

“The f**k? And I think Perez needs real help. I do, I do, but these people that are milking it for their own s**t, for their own views, that’s even weirder.”

Targeting one particular influencer, who hasn’t been revealed, she continued to say: “I don’t give a f**k, I think this s**t’s weird. I don’t give a f**k, y’all can go in her chat and talk s**t about her, I will say this s**t right to her face. I don’t give a f**k. She just told me yesterday that she trolls and fake cries on purpose to get views. The f**k, and all of a sudden, like why is she ok now?

“Let me go on other people’s s**t, I don’t give a f**k, I’m going to talk s**t about everyone. Y’all are some clout-chasing a** b***hes.”

She claimed that Perez is “dealing with some real life s**t” right now, and that neither she nor her partner were making light of the situation.

“Anti [her boyfriend] thought it was a skit which we previously said bc the chat was saying it and Lindo said that too. At the end we were concerned and very worried for Perez. Nowhere here did anyone say ‘you missed a spot’ stop spreading false narratives,” she wrote in the video’s caption.
