So awful.

Actress Bella Thorne has claimed that a director once accused her of flirting with him when she was only 10 years old.

The now 25 year old made a name for herself on Disney Channel series Shake it Up, where she starred alongside Zendaya.

After starting her career as a child actor, Bella has opened up about a shocking moment in her earlier career following an audition when she was 10.

Speaking on Emily Ratajkowski’s High Low podcast, she spoke about the highest and lowest points of her career.

Recalling some of the low points, Bella discussed the time she went to an audition and received “feedback” from the director after.

Bella said: “The director calls my agent and my agent calls my mom and they’re like, “She’s not moving forward because the director felt like she was flirting with him and it made him really uncomfortable”.”

“Oh my God, you were 10?” Emily asked.

To which Bella continued, addressing the director: “What the f*** are you talking about man?!

“I don’t give a f*** what the f*** I said, I don’t care if I said “Eat my p***y right now,” [I am] 10 years old.

“Why ever would you think that? Why?”

She then went on to explain what a “director session” that she was doing at the time was, saying: “You walk in, you say hello, you do the scene, you walk out – there’s no time to be like “let me sit on your lap” or make you feel uncomfortable.

“What the f*** are you talking about man?” she repeated.
