Bella Thorne Decided To Boycott This Year’s Teen Choice Awards

August 13, 2018 / Posted by:

Activism comes in many forms. For example, I’ve been silently protesting my local grocery store every since the bakery raised the price of cake slices by $0.30 (now I buy the whole cake, and I’m sure they can feel my dissent). For Bella Thorne, she had some issues with last night’s Teen Choice Awards. But instead of showing up and smiling through gritted teeth while counting down the minutes, she decided to bail on the whole thing.

Bella Thorne seems like the kind of person who shouldn’t care that much about the TCA, because do they even have a category for Outstanding Effort in Dating a Reality TV Douche  for Publicity? But Bella was nominated for three awards: Choice Drama Movie Actress for the film Midnight Sun, Choice Movie Ship (with Patrick Schwarzenegger for Midnight Sun), and Choice TV Drama Actress for the recently-cancelled Famous in Love. Bella planted the seeds of a walk-out back in July on Twitter.

This all happened a little over a month after the nominations were announced. Clearly Bella had been doing some thinking, and the Teen Choice Awards weren’t for her. So what did Bella do instead of going to the TCA? Did she hit up the library and get smarter, or go do some charity work? Maybe, but we know for sure she promoted her makeup brand on Instagram.

Bella didn’t win any of the awards she was up for. So maybe the Teen Choice Awards are rigged, and she knew prior to the show that it would be a waste of her time if she showed up. Does that mean that the winners of the award for Choice Liplock weren’t determined by a jury of their peers, with voting supervised by unbiased representatives from Pricewaterhouse Cooper? Say it ain’t so! You think a trophy shaped like a surf board would mean something!
