“Over the weekend Bella Thorne posted some nude photos of herself to Twitter after alleging a man was threatening to leak them. "I can sleep tonight better knowing I took my power back. U can’t control my life, u never will," she tweeted alongside the pics.
The whole situation became a talking point on Monday's episode of The View—and Thorne has now responded to comments made by cohost Whoopi Goldberg. During the episode, per People, cohost Sunny Hostin was defending Thorne. "It just saddens me that these kids have to go through this,” she said. “For someone to extort her or threaten her with posting these pictures, it’s terrible.”
Goldberg had a different take, though. “If you’re famous, I don’t care how old you are, you don’t take nude pictures of yourself,” she said. "Once you take that picture, it goes into the cloud, and it’s available to any hacker who wants it. And if you don’t know that in 2019 that this is an issue, I’m sorry. You don’t get to do that.”
