Bella Thorne, welcome to Her Daddy. Hi, thank you for having me. Oh my God, I am so excited to be here with you today.
We kind of like first as the world got to know you as CeeCee Jones on Shake It Up.
But you didn't let Disney put you in a box. You are now in the director's chair. And I feel like you have done so much in your life to just get to where you are today as the Bella Thorne we know and love. And so I am really excited to just learn more about you.

**Bella Thorne** (3:22)
Oh, thanks.

**Alex Cooper** (3:23)
The red hair is back.

**Bella Thorne** (3:25)
It's bitch. The girl is growing.

**Alex Cooper** (3:29)
Is it true that you dyed this yourself?

**Bella Thorne** (3:32)
I did the original color myself. Yeah, I did.

**Alex Cooper** (3:35)
What inspired the return?

**Bella Thorne** (3:37)
Well, I woke up one day and was just like, I don't want the brown anymore. I did the brown to grow, also grow out my hair. You know, when you have like red or, as you know, blonde, every time with a six week mark, you're like, the roots. And shadow roots don't really look amazing sometimes with red hair. It's just not as, you know, I like it like from, from the tip, just like, yes.
And then I woke up and my fiance, I was like, you know, I really want to get this like product where, you know, it says no bleach, it's a high lift color, but you know, it says no bleach.

**Bella Thorne** (4:18)
And I was like, it says they have it at CVS.

**Bella Thorne** (4:20)
And this little angel next to me in bed at eight in the morning was like, you know, I'll go get it right now.
