Bella Thorne Says Disney Pitted Her Against Zendaya

Bella Thorne says her Disney-era rivalry with Zendaya was manufactured. On Call Her Daddy, the actress revealed she and her Shake It Up co-star were aggressively pitted against each other at the height of their teen fame, per Variety. Things, she says, 'got pretty bad.'

The resolution came without adult supervision: the former teen stars snuck off set to 'hash it out' themselves, Vulture reports. Zendaya has since become one of the world's biggest stars. That makes Thorne's firsthand account of a manufactured feud the tea the internet will sip all week.
